When I moved to Granada in 2006, I initially intended to stay for a year or two. Maybe three or four at most. But like many people, I was captivated by the city’s history and culture, as well as its strategic location close to the sea and in the shadow of the imposing Sierra Nevada mountains. Having travelled widely before I came here, I knew that Granada was special. Little by little I became a local – a “Granaíno”. As well as enjoying everything Granada has to offer, I love exploring the cities and countryside of Andalucía. That includes walking in the beautiful mountains, and I help to run the website treksierranevada.com, which offers guided and self-guided hikes in the Sierra Nevada. I also work as a translator and write textbooks for Spanish schools.
