Traveling with friends, is this
Spain, year 2013. In these times no one conceives that a bachelor party is done in the city of origin. Here the known bad is not better: it is time to discover and go to corners, gambling dens and places that would not normally be frequented. These are some proposals to put kilometers in between and give yourself a group tribute that makes the trip a myth to help overcome (or accentuate) the crises of the 40s, 50s, 60s...
BEER, WHISKEY AND RUGBY
This is the plan: have breakfast with a good pint of beer, wash down the meal with a whiskey in hand and end up reinforcing your manhood by watching an animal sport played by gentlemen. this is dublin , where the most visited attractions are the gigantic Guinness Storehouse and the Jameson Distillery . But the trip would not be complete without an evening in the Aviva Stadium where to enjoy a good day of the 6 nations. And if it's not the season of the most traditional rugby competition, you can always discover that the Irish are made of different stuff by attending any Gaelic sport match. The blood, sweat and heat of the stands are more than guaranteed, in addition to the beauty of pizpiretas and exuberant redheaded females. Definitely, Dublin is a city for men.

GREEN BEGINS IN THE PYRENEES
Europe is full of cities that are a claim for perfectly pair the nightlife with the picturesque terrace . Put to choose, this list could not miss the good price of the nightclubs of Zagreb and the attractiveness of the Slavs. Neither do all the erotic myths that surround budapest (the unrecognized capital of porn in the Old Continent), its infinite hot springs and the lively Jewish quarter. The passion of Polish women for the Latin lover and the brilliant modernization of their nightlife makes Warsaw a very attractive place . In case of doubt, there will always be the red-light district magnet in both Hamburg and amsterdam , with his permissiveness to flirt not only with women, but with other forbidden vices.
THE GAME
To hell with those plans for couples going to have fun in Las Vegas! The city of sin is made to measure for these enriching trips. Hangover in Las Vegas It showed part of the arguments for nights of debauchery with casinos and colorful characters, but it avoided (with the double standard that characterizes the Yankees) its famous showgirls. Here the Mecca is **the Sapphire**, the world's largest gentlemen's (read: striptease) club where Americans normalize and glamorize these shows. And if the only engine that moves the girl is the game, she will always remain decaffeinated Atlantic City as an American alternative or neon paradise : growing and sprawling Macau.

HOMELAND ALTERNATIVE
More realistic and affordable is to stay in our country. Overall, the "where does it come out here?" is a typical Spanish phrase that reflects the predilection for partying in each of our cities. Nonetheless, these 5 destinations are sure to be fun. The gastronomic offer and the powerful dance activity of Pila River makes of Santander a wise choice. Elvira street, the free tapas and the rate of Erasmus per square meter place Grenade in this selection. Sherry is not far behind , with wine as the central axis and with the speed circuit as the vertiginous icing. Salamanca is synonymous with pubs with relaxed hours and university life, ideal for the nostalgic. And if all else fails there will always be Ibiza . Opening and closing nightclubs is a mandatory toll for every promised little man.
GO TO TOWN
The rural environment and the activities offered by the towns are the perfect environment to have fun and colonize platforms. And it is that every municipality in Spain grows around the church and the bar , so it is practically impossible to choose the best ones. But it should be noted that the patron saint festivities are always a suitable time to go, since the adventures and rogueries would not scandalize a society involved in their days off and fun. Within the rural area is the healthy exercise of go to cellars . Far from the snobbery of tastings for specialists, some savvy companies have exploited the good connection between wine and sex, such as Bodegas de Aranda or Bodegas Monje, in Tenerife, with their innovative initiative called Wine & Sex. Finally, there are rural houses that are the trip ; although perhaps the palm will go to the House of Horrors, an ace in the hole that a district of Toledo offers. Yes, fear can unite a lot of friends...

IN SEARCH OF DANGER
Two cities: Tijuana and Bangkok . The first was perfectly described by Manu Chao: “Welcome to Tijuana: tequila, sex and marijuana”. After all, they are the seams of a place left by the hand of God where the most Mexican Mexicans mix with the most intrepid Californians who seek in its dusty streets to satisfy their instincts while maintaining their reputation on the other side of the border. Here the police are bribable and the atmosphere decadent no matter how much the Hong Kong Club does its part to modernize the offer. bangkok It wouldn't be the same without the impact of the saga of erotic films by Emmanuelle . Seeing how Sylvia Kristel fled from colonial comforts to discover -naked- the exotic sexuality of Thailand was quite an impact that discovered a different way of understanding sex for Westerners. Quite a claim that becomes evident with the millions of massage clubs scattered around the city and by the gambling dens of the I'm Cowboy , the touristy and wild red light district.
