Bike riding through derelicted farms
The countryside in Menorca has languished for many years. Since agriculture stopped being a profitable business and many of the farms opted for extensive livestock. Cows, which produce milk with which a quality cheese is manufactured that is consumed on the island and exported to many places both in our country and abroad.
Many of these farms seem to be abandoned for the simple reason that no one lives in them and soon they become ruined buildings, away from the bustle of when they were inhabited by families of farmers.

El Rio de la Plata
In the 1800s and early 1900s, some properties on the island were acquired by "Indianos": emigrants from Menorca who, after making their fortune in distant places, returned to the island to live from their savings. On many occasions, as in this one, they put names on their properties that evoked those places to which they had emigrated.
Rio de la Plata is the estuary formed by the confluence of the Uruguay and Paraná Rivers on the Southeastern coastline of South America.
