Secretary of State for Tourism
Secretary of State for Tourism, Joan Mesquite, said yesterday in an interview with El Periodic de Cataluña that the club is the “perfect candidate” to promote Barcelona, Catalonia and Spain. Ferrusola, speaking at a gathering of Cataluña Radio, has acknowledged that it would like “nothing” to serve as the Catalan club to promote the brand hook Spain.
“If you give money, catch it,” said Ferrusola to justify that the club has closed a deal with Qatar. An agreement with Spain, in his opinion, “would not be the same” because “they want to impose the signal of Spain” and because the club “is to Catalonia.”
“There is money that is helpful and not another. Give us what we have to, “he concluded Ferrusola to argue that his refusal to accept a deal the club with the Spanish government has resolved without Catalonia’s fiscal deficit with the rest of Spain.

There are places, towns, which need no great apologies to revisit, perhaps because its main asset is its people. Cadiz is a clear example of this type of destination. But if you should need, here is one more reason to travel to municipalities in the Bay of Cadiz and tourist area.
It aims to disseminate the bicentenary of “La Papa”, which was enacted on March 19, 1812 in Cadiz and opened the door to modernity by introducing concepts such as national sovereignty, freedom of the press or the right to education, to become a tourist attraction in the area.
From fair to fair
For this, the Ministry of Tourism, Trade and Sport has designed an ambitious promotional plan that includes spreading the Bicentennial in national fairs such as International Cultural Tourism Trade Fair in Malaga, and international as the World Travel Market in London, one of the largest in the sector worldwide.
The promotion of “La Papa 2012″ Latin America will also travel to be in two major exhibitions, the ABAV in Brazil and Tourism Fair in Latin America, Argentina.

Besides diffusion, the Board encourages municipalities and entrepreneurs to create tourism products related to “La Papa” attracting tourism to a city that wants to make next year’s Bicentennial in a “big city festival” within a year in which, among other acts, Cadiz will host a dozen exhibitions and host the XXII Latin American Summit of Heads of State and Government.

Volunteer Tourism Program Brings Everything Organized
This kind of vacation are scheduled for people who do not have much time and want to experience a destination in different ways, leaving something of themselves or helping. They are usually people between 20 and 35 years with a good economic position and a job that cannot escape.
The volunteer tourism program brings everything organized and armed to carry the traveler from his point of departure to the destination, and minimal training and contextualization of the project being carried out.
The obvious advantage is that travelers are allowed to charge but with little time or contacts to access a type of travel is generally not so popular. Basically it is the opportunity to live a unique experience.
Disadvantages:
For as it is an advantage has a negative side. Just one week on the site is a very short time to really get involved in a volunteer project, interact with locals and gain their trust, and work on a project without disturbing the local balance.
At the same time we cannot be tourists to travel in this way and perhaps out of respect and deference we apply a treatment as a volunteer does not enjoy. Comfort and plenty of food, as well as participation in projects that do not exploit the full potential of who is traveling this way.
