In Spain and on Spanish islands, a plot with a farm house is called "Finca". People from Europe like to buy old fincas - some are more than 300 years old - restore them and then use them in the cold months for living under warm Spanish sun; so do my cousin and her husband from October/November to March/April or even longer depending on the weather in Germany. And regarding our long, cold and dark winter this year (we are still having frost at night) I envy them!!! clara
