Those who know or follow me KNOW I never "blow my own horn", but found the "Rick Steves' Spain 2012" book lists MadridMan.com as a useful resource - on page 356:



I read that just yesterday/Saturday while standing in a Columbus, Ohio USA (just visiting) Barnes & Noble book store and, I have to admit, was a bit fluttery with pride. Wow. Rick Steves is like THE PREMIER travel expert here in the USA.

Thanks, Rick!!

Saludos, MadridMan

Congratulations MM. You deserve it because you do a lot of good to Spain. Besides here we know more about Spain than Rick Steves ever dream hehehehe ::)
En hora buena!

I was going to ask if he consulted you, but I guess not according to your post. He has a staff in Spain, but I suppose they didn't call you either. How wonderful! Congratulations.

Bravo! You deserve it, my friend!

Fantastic! Well deserved MM.

How'd they get your name? That's spooky.

Wow! MM that is great news. I been using Rick Steves for a long time and this is the first time I knew something (Madridman website) before Rick Steves did!

This will mean more traffic to your website. Hope you are ready!

Thanks, all! Nope. No contact was made before the listing. Besides, why in the world would I mind?!?!

Just yesterday (10 January 2012), in his Rick Steves blog, he also mentions MadridMan.com in #3 under "Helpful Websites", listing it as "Madrid Spain Tourist Guide".

He writes:

So apparently, Rick Steves has also included MadridMan.com in his "Europe Through The Back Door 2012" guide as well. Can anyone confirm this by sight, please?

Saludos, MadridMan

That is great news indeed, well deserve.

I ,also have you in my blog , in a small hommage ::)

Thank you, pedmar! That's very nice of you.

Regarding the "Europe Through The Back Door" book, now I'm thinking MadridMan.com will be included in the 2013 edition to be published in August. Can anyone confirm that MadridMan.com is also mentioned int eh 2012 edition, please? Thanks!
