What's the best way to go to los Picos de Europa from Seville, Spain?
I'm currently studying abroad right now in Seville, Spain. Some students and I were talking about going there sometime during this semester. I'm trying to find train tickets, but cannot seem to find any to los Picos. Is there any city in particular that would be good to go through in order to arrive there. Maybe rent a car? or Maybe take the bus? Thanks and cheers!

I miss Sevilla! This: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Picos_de_Europa_National_Park suggests going to Santander...I'd take the train or fly. Then a bus. check with the Tourist office. It's up the Avenida de la Constitución from the Cathedral...same side. Towards the Puerta de Jerez. They should have all the details you need.

You could fly up to Bilbao from Seville. Then hire a car. Potes is about 200km from Bilbao. Or train to Madrid, and change for Santander, which is the nearest city. Hire a car and drive the 100 km to Potes. The Picos are about 800 km from Seville.

I would hire a car and drive. Los Picos is spectacular, but many places along the way are incredible to vist. Towns that are unmissable are Ciudad Rodrigo and Salamanca. If you fly, or if you get the train then you will miss so much.

No, that's not true. All loans received under programs authorized by Title IV, of the Higher Education Act can be canceled for several different circumstances including: (1) in the event of your death; or (2) if you become totally and permanently disabled after the loan is disbursed. In addition, some loan types may qualify for loan discharge under a variety of conditions. Some of the most common cancellation provisions are listed for you below: * the school you attended improperly certified your ability to benefit from the training given. * the school you attended closed while you were in attendance or within 90 days after you withdrew from the school. * A National Defense Student Loan can be canceled in 2 additional circumstances: (1) full-time teaching and (2) military service. * Finally, your obligation to repay your loan may be discharged in bankruptcy.

I have a French Carte de Sejour (long term visa) obtained as a student, can I work in Spain as an intern?
I am an Indian Student in France, problem is that, I am not sure how this works? Can I just goto Spain and start working or what are the rules? I have a Schengen visa and i am a student in France, will I need to apply for something after I am in Spain? What is the process for that? Will I need company sponsorship? How long can I work? Will I need a work permit or will this be considered a part of studies? The internship is one year long. So will i need to apply for something when I reach Spain??? Something like carte de Sejour in France, I can get a letter from a Spanish university, so then can I work??? will i need something from the company as well?

No, you can't. A French student visa only authorizes to work in France for a maximum of 964 hours per year (during the school year : part-time / during vacations periods : full-time within the 964 hours yearly limit). http://www.consulfrance-washington.org/spip.php?article385#IV-Frequently-asked-questions .. Your French temporary residence permit only grants you to visit Spain as tourist for up to 90 days in a six month period; it does not grant you to stay for a longer period or to take up work/internship.
