What’s it like living in Almuñécar? I love this interview because it shows the reality of finding your “perfect” home in Spain. It’s not easy and what you thought might be ideal might end up not being the right place for you. Sergei and Lana moved to Spain and settled in the pretty town of […]
Hiking Almendron (Nerja)

All about James and how he ended up in Madrid […]
