San Sebastian is situated in the north of Spain, close to the more industrial Bilbao
and the border with France, this only half an hour’s car drive away. With the best of both worlds, glorious beaches and surrounding green mountains, San Sebastian is known all around the world for its beauty and kind friendly people, as well as for the best food you will ever taste, with Michelin stars’ restaurants and many tapas bars (referred to as “pintxos” in the Basque language) everywhere. It is also called Donostia or Donosti, Basque name, and -as you have probably already picked up- it is part of the Basque Country, a region within Spain with a different culture, traditions and even a language of their own: Euskera (Basque language), a language that was suppressed under Franco’s dictatorship (1939-1975) but which has despite all survived and is very much alive today.
