We are lucky since we can take advantage of the discounts that the Spanish government makes available to all young people under 30 who want to use public transport to travel both in Spain and Europe. These discounts can reach up to 90% depending on the type of transport we are going to select, whether they are regular trains or buses managed by the state.
