Its a big day for our daughter today as she opens her stall in the British market in Formentera del Segura. Its really buzzing in the market these days so Bec is looking forward to adding to the lively atmosphere in this hive of activity.
Bec has called her business AURORA BOREALIS and is selling lots of interesting things. I love the soap and shampoo bars the sort you slice which have amazing perfumes, you know the kind you get in Lush in UK, one lady who has tried them already said she thought she was in heaven when she used some in the shower. Bec also has a nice collection of books on various interesting and alternative subjects. Its smells wonderful around her pitch from the incences, oils and candles. Bec is also making use of her talent for reading the Tarot cards. Bec is also quite an expert on crystals and their properties so will be selling these, they can be used in healing and have powerful properties. New stock will be added all the time as she sources the kind of goods she wants to have on her stall.
There is a new clampdown on property owners in Spain who let to tourists and are not registered with their local tourism authority, and they will face fines of up to €30,000, A community that has a holiday let within it can also be subject to large fines, this creates a situation where a whole community will be pay the penalty for one property owner breaking the law.
The Spanish authorities are researching websites and checking paperwork in an attempt to stamp out unregistered letting. Neighbours are even reporting people to the authorities.
The reason many people do not register their holiday lets is to avoid taxes, and the charges made by the tourist authority to register and let through them are high.
Properties that are let on a lease for periods of longer than 6 weeks are not regarded as holiday lets and do not need to be registered with the tourist board.
I, as president of our community will be meeting with the administrators of our community to take measures to ensure all owners are registered.
