Me-time at Hammam al Andalus

December 6, 2021 No Comments

Sooooo, I’m definitely that kind of person who takes care of myself and take time to enjoy selfcare and such pleasures 😉

As I’ve been to such Hammam in Copenhagen at Aire Ancient Baths, where I found out that Aire too has these hammams in Spain (and other places), and even that Aire is spanish owned, I searched for similar options in Málaga, as I wanted some relaxation. So I found Hammam Al Andalus, and booked for a Mimma30, which has a 30 minutes massage and 60 minutes arab bath. I think it was enough, and I enjoyed it pretty much. I just think it could’ve been better if there were some more baths.

Besides, I still enjoyed my time here. I love the cozy and relaxing atmosphere, and that you enter into a different world, where you can just float and relax to the fullest <3 <3

Andalucia, Spain, Vegetarian Dining in Andalucia

First time trying paella ;)

December 5, 2021 No Comments

After a too quick visit to the Botanical Garden in Málaga, I finally managed to get an Uber in a rush, and arrived to Centro Historico, where I found a restaurant to get some lunch. I just felt I had to eat something before going for the Hammam, so I found Tapa Boca, that is located close to where the Uber driver could drop me off. It is a spanish restaurant, and they offered veg paella, so I gave it a try as I haven’t tried a paella before – and when in Spain you should of course try a paella 😉

The paella was pretty good.

Dream coming true – Granada, here I come! ;)

Yep, you got that right!

Visiting Granada has been a dream for me since I was 10 years old, actually. In a maths lesson while in grade 4, my then maths teacher – Bent Nørgaard – was teaching algebra and geometry, he showed us a picture of some geomtric design, that were mathematically created. These designs were not just some random designs; NO, they were from a historical site, and Bent told us about how the muslims/Arabs created these patterns using maths. The patterns and designs he showed us from a particular place he had travelled to – Alhambra in Spain.

Spice me up, Málaga! 🍛

After 3 hours of walking along El Caminito del Rey, we drove back to Málaga etc., where we could jump off if we wanted to do so. When we arrived at Málaga, I therefore decided to jump off the bus, because I thought of eating there. I hadn’t eaten the whole day, but got some water, so I was litterally starving 😂

I decided to go to The Great India at Plaza de la Solidaridad, nearby the Málaga Alameda Centro, which has got some good reviews on Tripadvisor. And I actually liked the food pretty much!

I got some pappadum and some chutney/pickles, and I got a baingan bhartha with rice for main. Really good!

Hereafter I went for shopping at El Corte Inglés. I found out, that being a tourist you can get a Discount Card, that you can use within a week. By using the card I got 10% discount for my first purchase, and 5% for the following purchases. the customer service at any El Corte Inglés shop by showing them your passport or your ID proof ☺️

And then back to Fuengirola by the C1 train ☺️

On the king’s path, Caminito del Rey 👑

I checked Get Your Guide for some tours and trips before travelling to Malaga. I really wanted to go to the Caminito del Rey and Granada to see Alhambra, and I therefore booked a ticket for me to Caminito del Rey. My brother’d already went there back in 2019, and he too recommended me to go there, as he nows I love to hike in nature.

Then I had a few days on my own, while my brother went for work. Fuengirola is a beautiful town, and as my brother lived only few metres from the beach, I work up early to go to the seaside and enjoy the sunrise. It was some priceless moments, and I could feel how much I needed this kind of space during a hard time. I felt so grateful while enjoying those moments, and they helped me to recover and come back to the normal.
