Spain is currently in the spotlight due to two utterly bizarre but true events that have sparked a social media frenzy. First, imagine you’re in a taxi in Marbella, a popular holiday spot, and suddenly you notice a bug in your hair! Yes, you read that right — a bug! A taxi driver shared how a passenger panicked, trying to remove the insect, unsure if it was a spider or a flea. Due to a windy day, the bug probably flew into the passenger’s hair, and the scene ended with the bug under the car. The ride had to be stopped because the passenger was itching all over and freaking out. Is this the new tourist nightmare or a weird summer story? You decide.
But wait, there’s more! On the other side of Spain, in Cantabria, a full-blown scandal erupted over extra charges for food packaging. Customers ordered takeout, only to find a mysterious “packaging” fee of 5 euros on their bill! Yes, five euros just for a box or plastic container! Some restaurant owners defend this practice, saying the law requires charging for packaging materials to reduce food waste. But does that justify such outrageous prices? Social media users are furious, and the debate is heating up.
Right now, Spain is suffering from intense heatwaves, and people are changing their habits — drinking more water, taking nighttime walks, and using taxis more often. But is this really the time for bugs in hair and packaging price scandals? Apparently, yes. If you thought heat was the only problem, think again — Spain has become the stage for the strangest summer tales.
