Spain


View Larger Map


Calpe





Benidorm






Grenada / Alahmbra






Marbella






Gibraltar






Just got back from an amazing trip to the South of Spain. It was very spontaneous and pretty rushed. I was tired and hungry most of the time, but it was worth it. Calpe's pristine waters, Benidorm's incredible skyline, Alahmbra's magnificent architecture and beautiful gardens, Marbella's authenticity and Gibraltar.. Gibraltar was the cherry on top. You can see Africa and there are monkeys running around everywhere, completely unhazed by humans. I am super impressed by the monkeys :o).

I tried to catch up with everyone's emails. If you've written to me and haven't heard back, please e-mail me again. I will be listing more mummy dresses in a couple of days, thank you so much for the interest!

Romany said...

I know Mallorca is part of Spain, but is it actually in Spain do you know? Or is it a separate island owned by Spain or something? I should probably look it up, haha.
Did you take these photos? Incredible.
