Málaga

I met my colleague Christy through this program. Since she lives in Málaga, I extended my trip to visit her and explore the city.

Caminito Del Rey

After renting a car in Malaga, Christy and I began our hour-long drive to Caminito del Rey, a gorge in El Chorro.

Canyoning the Guadalmina

I booked my canyoning excursion with South Coast Aventuras, based on a recommendation from a local friend. The excursion took place on the Guadalmina River.

Córdoba

Córdoba is famous for its Mezquita (Great Mosque), the Alcázar de los Reyes Cristianos, the Synagogue, and the Roman Bridge. 

Puerto Banús 

Puerto Banús is a playground for the rich and famous, renowned for its collection of high-end boutiques, its vibrant culinary scene featuring gourmet restaurants, and its lavish yachts.

Marbella Old Town

Old Town Marbella captures the true spirit of the city, with its charming cobblestone streets.

Ronda

One of Andalusia’s oldest towns, this historic Moorish settlement sits located on a rocky mountain, offering breathtaking views of vineyards, olive groves, and the valley below along the Rio Guadalevin.

Cortijo LA Organic

Experience authentic Andalusian olive oil with LA Organic. Their groves are cultivated organically without the use of pesticides.

Mijas

This quaint village extends through the side of the mountain, stretching from Sierra de Mijas to the sea. 

Puente Romano Resort

Wow. I don’t even know where to start with this resort. It was the most beautiful hotel I had ever stayed in.
