compulsory time for sleeping between 15:00-17:30 (after lunch)on a couch not in the bed. In Spain, and especially Southern Spain, siestas can be endeless sometimes.
Shops close and the world stops during these hours, everyone is having la siesta.

In the Roman Empire, people also had siesta, slept for a couple of hours to go on idling more energically the rest of the day. The word siesta comes from the Latin word sexta (Spanish sexta) which means "the sixth hour" (Roman Time).

The habit of having siesta is due to the abundant quantity of food ingested at Spanish meals together with the hot weather. It is attested that biologically, because of the great amount of food eaten, the blood pressure decreases giving sleepiness as a result. Besides, the Tropics between these hours is when the sun heats most and even animals go back home seeking for a place to rest.

A very strong, determined and beautiful person inside and out. She has problems trusting people but once you gain her trust she is there for you the rest of your life.

She is very stubborn and hates being wrong. She is one of the most amazing people you will ever meet and someone you would want on your side in a bind.
She is trustworthy, dependent, loving, caring, just basically the type of person who would give someone in need the shirt off her own back.
She believes in love but has issues finding a balance. Romance is something she doesn't see very often but loves it when she does. She is the type to settle down not go out and party.

She lives each day like it is her last and she doesn't hold back.
Shesta is a very amazing girl. One you won't find anywhere else. If you are lucky enough to grab onto her never let go and realize how lucky you are.
