“The best education you will ever get is traveling. Nothing teaches you more than exploring the world and accumulating experiences.”

One of the experiences this quote makes me think of is visiting Santiago de Compostela.
In this picture I am lying on the pavement in front of the majestic cathedral to capture this moment for two travelers who’ve just completed the renowned Camino de Santiago. Their paths crossed at various stages along the trails and were happy to meet up again at the final destination. They each shared fascinating tales and experiences with me about their physical struggles and personal enlightenments along the trails.

Santiago, a gem on the Northern Tour, offers a unique perspective on life’s journey. Watching these weary yet fulfilled pilgrims conclude their trek is a moment you’ll always cherish There is still time to join the Northern Tour next summer and I hope you’ll take the opportunity.
DM me for details and bookings.

In Spain the festive spirit extends from December 24th to January 6th, each day marked by unique celebrations. And just as the festivities vary, so does the way people express their Christmas cheer. You’re probably familiar with ‘Feliz Navidad’… but in Catalonia, you’ll hear ‘Bon Nadal’.
In Galicia, the greeting is ‘Bo Nadal’.
And, if you wander through the Basque Country, locals will wish you ‘Eguberri on’.

Exploring the vibrant heart of Spain during Christmas, or ‘Navidad’ as it’s fondly called here, is like stepping into a living, breathing postcard.
Each corner of the country, from large cities to quaint villages, is adorned with dazzling lights and decorations.
The pictures I’ve shared only offer a glimpse of this enchanting spectacle.

In Spain, gratitude is woven into the fabric of everyday life.

Spaniards have a beautiful saying, “Gracias a la vida,” which means “Thanks to life.”
This phrase encapsulates the philosophy of being thankful for the simple, everyday blessings – the laughter shared over a meal, the quiet moments of reflection, and the joy of being surrounded by loved ones.
It’s about appreciating the present, embracing the togetherness, and celebrating life’s little pleasures.

So this Thanksgiving, let’s give thanks not just today, but every day, for the countless blessings in our lives.

¡Gracias a la vida!

A fun and lesser-known fact about Spain is that it has the world’s oldest existing lighthouse still in use.

✨Known as the Tower of Hercules, this ancient Roman lighthouse is located in the city of A Coruña, in the northwestern part of Spain.
Dating back to the 1st century AD, it was originally built by the Romans and has been guiding ships through the treacherous waters of the Atlantic Ocean for nearly two millennia.

The Tower of Hercules is not only a functional maritime guide but also a UNESCO World Heritage Site, recognized for its historical and architectural significance.

Hola, adventurers! It’s José here, your guide to the radiant city of Alicante, a jewel nestled on the Spanish coast.

Imagine this: golden beaches where the Mediterranean caresses your feet, bustling markets that burst with local flavors, and outdoor cafés where time slows down over a perfect café con leche. As we stroll down the majestic Esplanada, lined with whispering palm trees, you’ll feel the pulse of my beloved hometown.

But there’s more to Alicante than just unwinding in plazas or people-watching by the shore. Prepare to step back in time as we ascend to the ninth-century Castle of Santa Barbara, perched like an eagle’s nest above the city, offering stories etched in stone and views that will take your breath away. I can’t wait to share the hidden corners and vibrant tales of this place I’m lucky to call home.

And remember, Alicante is just one of the unforgettable stops on the Worlds of Spain Classic Tour, happening from June 1 through June 12, 2024.
So why wait? Book now, join Shawna Thue ( your incredible tour leader) and myself, and let’s create memories in Alicante that will linger like the city’s enchanting sunsets. ¡Nos vemos en España!

✨The picture above is from Cordoba, a stop on the Southern Spain & Portugal Tour. The Mezquita Mayor used to be a mosque but was turned into a cathedral in the 1200s. Known for its mesmerizing arches, evidence of both faiths can be found in this unique building. Wandering Cordoba’s small streets will also allow you to understand why the whole centro historico is included on the UNESCO list.
