The cathedral of Granada... What a magnificent building ❤️ I am in Granada for a few days to take three exams... Even though Granada is closed at the moment for visits, it will open up again soon, and you will be able to explore its amazing buildings. It has a lot more to offer than just Alhambra.

Do you know Conil de la Frontera? A white Andalusian village, in the province of Cádiz and by the ocean... It has a bit of that Arabic feeling you get in Tarifa, and less wind... I just moved here, so I will introduce you to the place here... I think you might like it!!

Parque Genovés is the Botanical garden of Cádiz, named after the mayor of the at that time, in 1892. A lot of the species here come from America and South America. It's really worth a visit, if not just to say hello to all the stray kitty cats living there.

When visiting Cádiz, make sure that you don't miss out on the patios of the many majestic buildings of the city. From the outside they are very pretty too, tall and with their Elizabethan/Renaissance style balconies, open and closed. But the houses keep a secret... Their patios!! Some better restored than others. This is one of them... And there are many more and even prettier 😍

I'm back on the mountain in Tarifa after travelling 10 days. But tomorrow will actually be my last day here because I have to focus on studying for three guide exams in end of October. It has been 7 great weeks here, and I have loved working in and being sorounded by all the greens and all the animals. I will definitely miss it, but I will go somewhere else in November, I just don't know where yet. In October I will be in Cádiz, that is the plan ❤️

Salobreña, what a cute little white village on Costa Tropical in the province of Granada. It has history that dates back 6000 years. The village's architecture and archaeological findings shows that the Phoenicians, Romans, Christians and Arabs have been living there, not the same time though. The village is placed on a hill top and there is a Morish castle on top, build by the Arabs in the 10th century.

Walking in the old part of town is a bit like walking in a labyrinth with the narrow streets and stairs in different levels. And just when you think that the road is finished, just at the end, out of sight, there is a staircase to go up or down to yet another corner that is to be discovered. It's really something and my pictures are not even showing that atmosphere. It must be discovered on your own. I will be back one day. Thank you for having me, Salobreña.

Hiking and picnic with wonderful people, what's not to like 💚 There is a Buddhist center in the mountains of Las Alpujarras called O Sel Ling, where they do meditation retreats. We visited their garden on our hike this Sunday...

My favourite kind of holiday is the one where I go to the countryside, preferably off grid (as sustainable as it can get). Here I can get in touch with myself through nature, the sounds, smells, views and of course animals 💚

I can't think of a better way of living, and I can't wait till I find the right place for me, so that I can live like this full time... Here is a beautiful Airbnb just outside of Órgiva, in Las Alpujarras, that I stayed in this weekend...

What is your favourite kind of holiday?

Many people just fall in love with Granada at first visit... But somehow the city just doesn't speak to me, like so many other Spanish cities does, and I can't explain why. I suggest you go and have a look for yourself..

This was my second time visiting and my favourite experience was this cute little coffee bar around the corner from where we lived. The coffee was just amazing and the staff even more... It was full of soul and love. Highly recommendable 😍

Next stop after Málaga we went to Nerja... A cute little village east of Málaga. It is mostly a very touristy beach village, but again, it was very quiet now and we just had a stroll through the village and enjoyed a lovely beach time.

Málaga is really pretty and has a lot to offer for all ages... It is one of the major tourist towns in Andalusia, and I do understand why, with its charming streets, historic buildings, lovely climate, good food. And it is also right at the beach. What's not to like? At the moment there are hardly any tourist... I guess that goes for almost all of the world...

I am on a small road trip with a friend these days... You might as well enjoy while you can ❤️ I will share some of the highlights from our tour 🥳

Hiking in Tarifa - there is a really lovely hike on the coast from Tarifa towards Algeciras called . It is about 12 km long and runs to a tower on the coast. On this stretch you have amazing views to Marocco, you can experience several well kept bunkers from the Civil War, you get to experience the power of nature in the water, where the extreme winds and currents in the water have formed the rocks and also trees that turn to the side, all formed by the strong winds of Levante. We did the hike on an extremely windy day, just because we like the feeling of being in the elements of nature...

Watering, watering and watering... It could look like I'm peeing on the plants 🤭 Here in this household in Tarifa, they are lucky to have running water from the mountains. Not portable though, buy good enough to water their plants, which is very much needed these summer days. And these plants needs extra love because they were under attack by cows, that ate all their green leafs. Apparently there is a cow owner here in the neighbourhood that cuts his neighbours fences to their gardens when they are not home, so to feed his cows (here the animals can walk freely). If it's true, I find it really sad... #watering #wateringplants #wateringpalmtrees #caringforplants #palmtrees ##growfood #organicagriculture #growyourownfood #agricultura #agriculturespain #agradecida #livinginthecountryside #lifeinthecountryside #countryside #countrysideofspain #tarifa #lapeña #cowfood #attackedbycows #organicfoods #saynotopesticides #notopesticides

My volunteer work in Vejer de la Frontera has finished and I have moved on to Tarifa, the southliest point of Spain. Here my volunteer work contains garden work and housekeeping... Their property is placed really amazingly on a hills, 10 km from Tarifa, 3 km to the beach and views of the beach, Tarifa and Marocco, that is only 17 km from Tarifa. I wake up with these views and I feel that I am on a tropical island, because they also have papaya, mango and banana trees 😍 #paradise #tropicalisland #tropicaltrees #bananatrees #papayatrees #mangotrees #gratefulness #agradecimiento #agradecida #tarifa #iaminparadise #gardenwork #helpx #helpxspain #volunteering #volunteerwork #voluntarywork #voluntariado #voluntaria #beingonadventure #adventures #aventura #taknemmelighed #elcampo #cadiz #cádiz #andalusia #andalucia #provinceofcadiz #provinciadecádiz

I have been helping trees to "rejuvenate" by cutting off the dried out branches... Then the trees can use their energy on the living branches instead. This is especially important when they don't get so much water during the summer. And of course I had "help" from Ari and Pluto; "play with us"... #spanishsummer #rejuvenate #trees #cuttingoff #deadbranches #doglover #doggies #goldenretrievers #gardenwork #workingwithtrees #treework #arboles #naturelovers #magicaltrees #treelover #wwoofespaña #wwoofspain #wwoof #wwoofing #wwoofer #organic #agriculturaecologica #agriculture #agriculturespain #spaincountryside #spanishagriculture #elcampo #vejer #veranoespañol #vejerdelafrontera

My God I just work so fast 😂Tilling soil, pros and cons. It really depends on your soil and you. If you have hard clay soil, you might have to do it, in terms of breaking up the soil and to add oxygen and organic matter. Some people also do it to remove weed by the roots and to move the moist in the ground in lack of water (that is why I am tilling here). But the downside is that you can destroy some of micro bacterias that are essential in the soil. If you have healthy soil, it is recommended not to till in order to maintain the natural balance and bacterias in the soil. Then you will add humus soil on top and let it sink slowly into the soil beneath. Creating healthy soil in the no tilling way can take a lot of time to build, but can very much be worth the wait. What is your experience or comment to this matter? Maybe you can help me with the science on this matter 🤔😊 #till #tilling #tillingsoil #naturalsoil #permaculture #soil #soilscience #soils #newbee #newbettle #learningnewthings #learningaboutsoil #organicagriculture #volunteering #volunteerwork #voluntarywork #wwoofespaña #wwoofspain #wwoof #wwoofing #wwoofer #organic #agriculturaecologica #agriculture #agriculturespain #spaincountryside #spanishagriculture #labranza

The vegetable garden is empty and drying out.... So I am removing the dead plants and bushes. They won't start planting in the garden again before fall time because of the lack of water situation.... It was a very windy day if you notice the trees... #vegetablegarden #huerta #spanishsummer #workinginthegarden #workinginthecountryside #trabajandoenelcampo #viviendoenelcampo #veranoespañol #vejerdelafrontera #quecalor #cadiz #cádiz #elcampo #vejer #wwoofespaña #wwoofspain #wwoof #wwoofing #wwoofer

Self-sufficient in electricity. With this windmill and with solar panels, they are able to generate enough energy to their own use, my use and a wooden holiday home that they rent out to tourists. On grey days they sometimes have to start their generator, but it has only happened once in the five weeks I've been here, so I guess it's more in the wintertime. #selfsufficient #electricity #windmill #solarpanels #autosuficiencia #selfsufficiency #permaculture #livinginthecountryside #viviendoenelcampo #lavidaenelcampo #slowmotionvideo #vejerdelafrontera #vejer #pueblosblancos #whitevillages #andalusia #andalucia #provinceofcadiz #provinciadecádiz #cadiz #cádiz #elcampo #mølle #vindmøller #selvforsyning

my Green Andalusia

I would like to invite you to see and experience Andalusia through my eyes. I would like to share with you some of the things that makes Andalusia so special. Andalusia is a treasure and it has a lot of amazing gems. Some of them are its charming white villages, its beautiful nature, its rich history, its amazing beaches and its welcoming and warmhearted people.

I see a need to travel more in alignment with nature. To connect with some of the things that I think we have moved away from over the years in this world. Connections to nature, to people, to animals, to our hearts. We live in a world where everything must happen fast, where we are always busy, always available and always online. What would happen if we disconnected and moved slowly and into nature? My Green Andalusia also aims for more consciousness about the way we choose to live our lives and how we can be inspired to live a healthier and more natural lifestyle, with consideration for nature and the planet we live on.

My green Andalusia tours are for everybody and especially for those of you who:
