<p>My son did an exchange in Alicante last summer, just south of Valencia. He gave me the “probably not” answer, too. I’m pretty sure there is a young woman on exchange there right now. She’s been posting on [Welcome</a> to Cultures Shocked!](<a href=“http://www.cultures-shocked.org%5DWelcome”>http://www.cultures-shocked.org). She could fill you in on lots of things. Smoke dectectors are cheap and easy to install. We should remind all our students to check their smoke detectors.</p>
