Torret is one of my favorite places in Menorca. In the area, I really appreciate the absence of tourists and its architectural style. It is located at the south of Sant Lluís and Maó, and should not be confused with Cala Torret, which is a much more frequented place. Torret is a group of white Menorcan-style houses. They are amazing and everyone fall in love. There...
When I decided to go to Greece, my dream was focused on the islands. I really wanted to enjoy the beaches, the good fish, go quad biking and see a thousand small churches on the cliffs. Come on… what everyone explains. I knew that I “had an obligation” to go to the Parthenon for an obvious matter of history; but Athens itself made me lazy. I...
Once Edinburgh has been seen and having spent a few hours in charming North Berwick, it was time to start the route through Scotland. I planned a circular route with the aim of minimizing travel times. Due to its proximity to North Berwick, the first castle to visit is Dirleton Castle. Dirleton is a quiet little town. The houses are very well maintained. They have no...
It seems strange to me to name Casa Batlló as a Getaway. It is so close from home; but it is true that the visit itself is a real journey. In fact, as they themselves say, it is a unique immersive experience. And it is for many things. It is located in the middle of one of the most emblematic streets of Barcelona: Passeig de Gràcia. It was the street that linked...
Santa Eulàlia des Riu is to the east of Ibiza. As it is relatively close to the center (the port and the airport) and that it has many services, makes the area crowded. Despite that, you can still find amazing nooks. There are awesome BEACHES in this area: Es Pou des Lleó – It is a small and closed beach with a row of very cute boat houses. There are two...
When we think of Ibiza, clubbing, crazy partying and crowded beaches often come to mind. This is so because the reality is this; but there is also another Ibiza. The great unknown. The one that few seek and fewer find. There are still nooks where you can enjoy the most authentic island. There are many BEACHES; but four stole my heart. They have own soul and they are...
“Can Lamat” is a different place. On Instagram I saw a photo of an infinity pool on a river. It caught my attention. I am used to seeing photos of luxurious hotels with infinity pools on the sea, but I have never seen it on a river. This differential fact has already captivated me; but when I found out that this is a one-apartment unit, I was shocked...
Hidden in a small street behind the Mercat de la Boqueria there is this venetian tavern worth visiting. The door is discreet. It does not attract too much attention; in fact, if they hadn’t taken me there, I wouldn’t have gone in. After the green door, a curious-looking place makes you feel comfortable from the first moment. It is informal in appearance...
I had gone as a child. A long time ago. I had good memories of both the bridge and the cookies (hahaha) and I really wanted to go back. I liked it so much that I have gone two weekends! It is a dynamic town, open to mountain sports and with a wide range of historical-cultural visits to the area. If you make a link on the map you will see the exact location of the...
It is one of the most important tourist attractions in Italy. Everyone says that the Pompei ruins are unique and they probably are. Much of its value is due to the fact that it was not destroyed by the eruption of the volcano Vesuvius, but was buried under a layer of ash. This is just why the city is so well preserved. The eruption was terrible, but the death toll...
I did not expected to enjoy so much! It is true that they had spoken to me well and it is also true that the photos and comments that I saw on the networks excited me a lot; but I always think “we’ll see“. The restaurant is located in the center of Sant Cugat; specifically, it is between two locations that I frequent a lot and it made me not...
I have been twice in Porto, specifically, two weekends. Everyone spoke very well to me; but I went without much expectations. I liked Lisbon too much and thought that Porto would be behind. This is a clear example of the error of prejudging before knowing. Porto is amazing. Small, beautiful, with history, very nice shops and a good gastronomic offer. For me, it is...
