travel files » granada


Out of all of the cities I visited in Spain, I can safely say I left my heart in Granada. Between the incredibly slow pace of life, the lengthy stories from the locals, the perfect 80 degree weather + the Alhambra, I have not stopped fantasizing about it for a day. The Islamic influence on the architecture made for a seamless pairing with the traditional Spanish surroundings, and I left feeling there was much to learn from the residents of this quaint hillside town. We spent our last afternoon there enjoying a glass of Ribera beneath the sun with a flamenco dancer performing nearby. Definitely a 'pinch me' moment...
