Did you know that they have found an iron potassiu Did you know that they have found an iron potassium sulphate in this unique river in southern Spain that has also been found on Mars?

Happy New Year to every one of you!🤩💃🎉🍾
There is no denying, 2020 has been a rough one, a surprising one, and surely left us skars in one way or another. But a skar is a mark of the past. It's a memory of something we learned from. A skar always leaves us with a good story to tell! So let 2020 be just a skar. It will never heal, but it will sure make you stronger.
Let this next year be a year of solutions instead of problems, of new beginnings, of sustainability, of big dreams made reality, of happiness, of new direction. Let 2021 bring you great surprises that make you laugh so hard that you can't stop! 
To a new year!🥂

Did you know that more than half a million wild an Did you know that more than half a million wild animals are used for tourist entertainment?

We need to do something about that! This month is October. And it's (Un)Ethical Animal Tourism Awareness month. I partnered up with @expedition.wildlife and @explorewithlora to spread awareness about animal toruism. What to avoid, what to do, and how to take the right decisions. We're sharing expert advice on our blogs and social channels all month so make sure you follow along and help spread awareness and information too.

It's so easy to make a bad choice. Thinking it's the right choice. Because of lack of information. Let's do something about that and make a difference! Are you with us?

It's hard to compete with the view of a white Anda It's hard to compete with the view of a white Andalusian village😍

Did you know that Sierra de Cazorla, Segura y las Villas is the biggest protected natural area in Spain? And the second largest in Europe?

It's also amazing for wildlife! Last time I was here I saw heaps of deer, wild boar, and fox. I'm hoping to see some nice wildlife during the next few days too. Today I only met domestic animals: a couple of donkeys and a big pack of goats and sheep.

I officially miss SEA!!! My favorite thing to do i I officially miss SEA!!! My favorite thing to do in the holidays have always been to travel. This year has been totally turned upside down and it's been a year since I traveled last. That was to wonderful Iran, a new found love. And no, I don't count road trips on the Iberian Peninsula, though they've kept me sane inbetween lockdowns.

I know this is a really tough holiday for many this year and not everyone has been as lucky as I have. Despite not being able to spend Christmas with family in Italy (or Madagascar), which I would absolutely prefer after this year's unpredictable events, Spain had a strict lockdown for a month and a half before opening little by little to let the people celebrate these holidays with family. We still have night curfew and restrictions on opening times and the size of groups etc. We've had to wear a mask everywhere since June. But that's sort of just becoming normal. But we can move a little again.

What does it mean for me that don't have family here? It means I'm now able to move out of not only my municipality, but I can move freely in the whole of Andalucia. With nearly 2 weeks off, I'll make the most of it taking Ayla on a road trip exploring the hiking trails in some of the finest natural parks in southern Spain.

I'm actually starting to get really excited about it! And for those of you who would like to find out more about hiking in Andalucia, check out my new blog @andaluciahiking

If you're having a tough time through lockdown in the holidays, send me a message and I'm happy to chat! We're in this together💚
