Spain is a safe, secure and easy country to travel within, careful in the streets of Barcelona and Madrid during the night specially in small streets as theft occasionally has been reported.
Train and buses can get you anywhere in Spain, Europe and to the crossing to Africa.

Tapas is a cheap way to eat and have a drink, usually in Madrid bars every time you order a beer they will bring some little snack to eat. If you ask around you'll get even better deals with typical places serving all kind of tapas with your drink (Gambas, Jamon, Seafood, Chicken, Flavored breads and much more)

A good present in Spain is undoubtedly a guitar, but not a present for everyone, so if you are going straight back to your country a good wine and a piece of Cured Ham can be a good souvenir, don't forget to hide it from the customs officers though.
I would also recomend visiting the shops of the museums in Madrid they offer a bunch of nice presents as well
