Destinations
I moved to Málaga in 2021 after three years living in Costa Rica, and Andalusia got me immediately. Five years of exploring it on foot, by car, and occasionally by very slow local bus means I know these places properly, not just from a weekend visit.
Most of my guides focus on Andalusia, but I cover other parts of Spain when I get the chance to travel. Click a destination to find every guide I have written for it.
