Is this the most photographed house in Estepona?!

Is this the most photographed house in Estepona?! Probably 🙊 every time I look at #Estepona I seem to see a shot of this house, located just back from Calle Real 🥰 luckily, the owner doesn’t seem to mind the attention 🤩

I’m preparing a guide to the most beautiful streets throughout Estepona and spent this weekend with my parents, checking out the ones they thought should make the cut 😁 then I was watching stories and saw someone post one that I hadn’t even thought about 🤯

I haven’t yet planned any other trips - seems weird for a travel blogger I know 😂 - but I’m enjoying exploring what’s close by to me here! I definitely want to do some slightly further afield destinations, such as other places in Spain (Valencia, Mallorca etc) and also go to Portugal again. I probably won’t plan many ‘big’ trips for a while as it seems the rules change all the time on where you can and can’t go 😣 hopefully next month we will do a bigger trip to somewhere in Spain 🥰 so many places to explore in España alone!

Are you booking big/long distance trips yet? Or are you staying closer to home? Let me know in the comments 💬

We went on a hunt for the most beautiful streets in Estepona and found this little plaza I’d never seen before 😱😱

We also met a cute little stray kitty 🐈 here 🥺 check my stories to meet him!

I love being able to return to somewhere - like Estepona - time and time again and always find something new to see. This is ‘Plaza Begines’, located in the maze of gorgeous streets in the old town, or casco antiguo.

Estepona is also known as the ‘garden of the Costa del Sol’ and with plazas and calles like this, you can see why 😁 the whole city is beautifully decorated with plants all around - my parents’ rooftop now has lots of plants, plus ones on the balconies too. I love it! 😁

Where could you go back to/where do you love going back to that you always find something new?

Can you see me in my yellow dress 👗💛 rushing

Can you see me in my yellow dress 👗💛 rushing to get into this shot? 😂 sadly I never made it into the shot properly because two people decided to stand on the left side of the ramp and have a smoke break 🙃 they literally stood there watching me stand and wait for them to move 🤦🏻‍♀️ I don’t like to get in the way of people to get a photo but that did really get on my nerves 😂 Rob was standing there in spot with the camera and I’m clearly waiting for them to leave or move but no 😆 my real plan for this shot will have to wait til my next trip to Sevilla 😂

Have you ever had that happen to you? Or, maybe the opposite? People taking photos getting in YOUR way? 🤔 let me know your worst/best/funniest/most annoying stories 😝

Anyway, the structure in the distance is the Torre del Oro, a dodecagonal (easy for you to say 🤪) military watchtower that dates back to the 13th century. It was also used as a prison and its name, which translates to Tower of Gold, comes from the golden shine that it projected onto the river due to its building materials, which were a mixture of mortar, lime and pressed hay 😳 in 1992, the Torre del Oro was made a ‘brother’ to the Tower of Belem in Lisbon to celebrate the Universal Exposition in Seville!

So, what are your best travel photography stories of working around other people? 😝

SAVE this post for your next trip to Spain 😉 this is why you need to visit Vejer, and what to do when you’re there 😎

Vejer is easily one of my favourite places in Andalucía - it’s absolutely gorgeous and is perfect for a day trip or a few chilled out days if you want to go for longer. It’s also not too tricky to get to by public transport - buses go to Conil and Barca de Vejer from La Línea and Algeciras (as well as from Cádiz and other cities) and you can either get a local bus from Conil or take a taxi from Conil (around €20) or Barca de Vejer (€7-12 depending on the time and day).

Vejer is very hilly so bring your comfy shoes - and don’t wear heels! 😂 it’s full of narrow, winding stone streets 🥰 some of the best things to do when you’re visiting include:
• Have a meal with a view at @laventanataberna - the view of the town is spectacular, especially at sunset! 🌅
• Taste local delicacies at @elcentralvejer - the croquetas were muuyyyy delicioso! 😋
• Visit the old Jewish quarter and admire the iconic view through the archways (Arcos de la Judería) 🪟
• See the impressive architecture of the Iglesia Divino Salvador ⛪️
• Check out the remains of the town walls and castle 🏰
• Visit the Museo de Vejer to learn all about the history of the town 📚
• Head to the Mercado de San Francisco for tasty local food 🥘
• Wander the winding, fairytale streets and see what you find! 📸

You can also combine a trip to Vejer with visiting so many other places in the area, such as nearby Conil de la Frontera, Zahara de los Atunes, Los Caños de Meca and more 😍

Have you been to Vejer? If not, have you heard of it before? 😁

One of my favourites from our @flytographer shoot in Sevilla 🥰 [gifted]

I posted two of the shots with @robert.blackburn in my story and this one was voted as the favourite (but only just 😁) 🙊 I think I might just have to get this one framed 😝

I’ve been working on my blog post about Seville today, hopefully I’ll get it done this week 🙊 I need to get back into writing blog posts as I’ve been so lazy with it since last year went to 💩 🤷🏻‍♀️ I still have to write up posts from trips we did last year, including Ronda and Córdoba 🥰

While I’m in a writing mood, let me know what your too questions are about visiting Sevilla! What would you want to know before a trip? 😎

PS: don’t forget you can get $50 your next Flytographer shoot anywhere in the world with the code THEFLYAWAYGIRL50 😉

Mini photo dump of some of my favourite shots from

Mini photo dump of some of my favourite shots from around the Real Alcázar de Sevilla - which is your favourite? 🥰

These are some of my faves from the ‘less iconic’ spots (see my post before for the super iconic location here if you missed it!) 🤩

I wish we had more time to explore the Alcázar and to explore Sevilla! I also wish it had been slightly less warm so I didn’t melt so much 😂 but hey, if it was cold or rainy I would have probably been sad about that too 🙊

Rob and I have been thinking about our next destination 🤔 as much as I would love to go a bit further afield, I think this summer and the majority of this year will mostly be spent in Gibraltar and southern Spain! I have definitely been inspired by some awesome creators on places to visit in Andalucía (@ingrid_d_m, @instapi_, @instandaluz, @stefi_travel, @petitesuitcase) and in other parts of Spain (@ohhellokate, @arqpatrimonial) 🥰

For our next trip, we were thinking of visiting Cádiz! Neither of us has actually been to the city and it looks spectacular 🤩 we also need to go to Madrid and Barcelona together as Rob hasn’t been to those 😱

Do you have a favourite city in Spain? Any ideas on what places in 🇪🇸 we should go to over the next few months? 🥰 Where would you choose? 🚌 🚆 ✈️

SAVE this post for everything you need to know about visiting the Real Alcázar de Sevilla 🥰 or send it to a friend who needs to visit 😉

The Real Alcázar, or Royal Alcázar of Seville, is a must visit in the city! It’s probably one of the most iconic places in Sevilla and this spot is one of the most photographed in the Alcázar 😁 I hadn’t actually looked up much about visiting the Alcázar before I went, so enjoy learning from my mistakes 😆

1) Buy your tickets in advance! 🗓 while it was pretty quiet when we visited, you still ought to buy your ticket online 💻 make sure you buy it from the official website @realalcazarsevilla though, since some websites sell tickets that aren’t actually official 👀

You’ll get the option to choose a time slot so just arrive at that time and show them your tickets 🎫

2) Plan for spending more time than you originally planned on 🤣 I know that sounds… confusing, but until you arrive, it’s so difficult to imagine HOW MUCH there is to see 🤯

3) Don’t spend too much time on the parts at the beginning… unless you want to spend the ENTIRE day at the palace. Seriously! We spent too much time on the parts of the palace at the beginning of the tour and by the time we got to the super epic stuff (like the spot in this photo), we were already tired, warm 🥵 and pretty ready for lunch 😬 so unfortunately we had to miss out on a lot of the gardens 😔

4) Take a bottle of water in your bag, especially if you’re visiting around summertime. It gets so hot 🥵 and there’s nowhere in the palace to purchase drinks or snacks.

5) ENJOY! It is such an incredible place to visit and it is well worth the pretty minimal price of €12,50 for general admission!

Bonus: there are lots of tour guides etc outside trying to get you to pay them for a tour - in all honesty, I don’t think you need to do a tour. There’s lots of info inside so unless you’re a major major history or architecture buff, you’re probably ok to save your 💶 and to just do general admission!

Have you been to Sevilla? If not, do you want to go? 🥰 🇪🇸

I am obsessed with the jacarandá here 😍 how beautiful is this street with the purple blooms? 🥰
✨
This weekend I went up to visit my parents in Estepona for a belated birthday celebration with them - we went for a birthday dinner at @elpescadorestepona and it was so good 😍 @theflyawaydad also took me to this street because he knew I wanted to photograph some of the prettiest streets with jacaranda 😁
✨
I had planned on spending this afternoon looking at shops for new dresses for our Sevilla trip, but instead we spent more than an hour sorting out our hotel booking 🙄 since helpfully the hotel we had booked sent us as email saying they would now be closed... 🤦🏻‍♀️ what is it with me and hotels closing when I’ve booked them 😂 (if you don’t recall, we turned up to our hotel we had booked in Jerez to discover it was closed 😬). Well, no shops have been visited and now it’s off to the bus to head back to Gibraltar 🤷🏻‍♀️ another reason I need to learn how to drive 🤣
✨
Anyway, I wish there was jacaranda like this in Gibraltar 😍 petition to have Main Street planted with them?? 🤪🤪🤪
✨
Do you have anything beautiful in bloom where you are? 🥰

Gibraltar is open to tourism 😍🇬🇮 this bea

Gibraltar is open to tourism 😍🇬🇮 this beautiful place that I’ve come to call home has been announced as one of the destinations on the UK’s ‘green list’. These destinations won’t require a quarantine on your way home, and Gibraltar is also not requiring a test for entry by air (since land travellers coming across the Spanish border aren’t required to have one either).
✨
A large amount of Gibraltar’s industry and economy relies on tourism - in a normal year, Gibraltar welcomes more than 10 million tourists 😱 with tourist spending reaching more than £274 million in 2018, so you can imagine that no tourists and no travel was a big hit to the local economy. Thanks to now being one of the safest places in Europe (and maybe the world??), we have a grand total of ZERO local cases and have done for over six weeks.
✨
As of May 17th, people from 🇬🇧 can now fly over to visit our little slice of Britain in the sun - and discover that it is SO much more than that 😍 I’m excited for people to discover how much more there is to Gibraltar than just the Rock - I highly recommend spending more than just a day here and I hope that Gibraltar being on the green list will mean that people will come for longer and find out exactly what makes Gibraltar amazing 😀 and yes, I’m proud of my adopted home 😂
✨
Is travel and tourism starting to open up where you live? If you’re in the U.K., is Gibraltar on your radar?
