I love Seville. It has great architecture, amazing tapas bars and photogenic in every corner. Looking for a day trip from Madrid? This is a day trip worth your ride.
I stayed in Malaga for 3 months as a student learning Spanish, where I got to experience some of the best parts of the Andalusia region.
Check out this tranquilo-paced guide inspired by the Spaniards' way of living. It comes with a highly recommended tapas place and a map of the ocations.
