Adventure Activities in Costa Brava

Published: 6th January 2016 by Laurence Norah - Leave a Comment

My Spanish Adventure

We spent almost a month in Costa Brava recently, exploring all there was to offer in the last of the summer months of 2015. This was our third visit to this region, but we still found loads to do, from discovering Dali, through to exploring medieval villages, hiking up to castles and wandering on the […]

Cycling in the Pyrenees – From Mountains to Coastline

Published: 24th December 2012 by Laurence Norah - Leave a Comment

My Spanish Adventure

I love cycling. When I lived in France it was my preferred method of getting round. It’s faster than walking, environmentally friendly, and you get to take in the scenery and fresh air. Plus the odd fly, for nutrition. So when the opportunity to spend three days cycling in the Pyrenees presented itself, I jumped […]

Wine-tasting for beginners (or how to alienate the masters of wine)

Published: 26th November 2012 by Laurence Norah - Leave a Comment

My Spanish Adventure

Here I am, travelling my way through the world, always stumbling over offers to taste wine. The world is a gigantic vineyard, it seems. Until recently, I didn’t care much. To be honest, I had this terrible fear that if I actually knew how to distinguish a very good wine from a not so good […]

Visiting the Vall de Nuria in the Pyrenees

Nuria Valley

We have visited and explored many parts of the beautiful Catalonia region, from the beautiful rugged coastline known as the Costa Brava, through to the stunning Pyrenees region that borders France. In today’s post, we’re going to share with you one of our favourite parts of the Pyrenees region – the hidden away Vall de Núria. […]

Girona and the talisman of the Ice Age

Published: 9th November 2012 by Laurence Norah - Leave a Comment

My Spanish Adventure

When you travel to Spain and visit the lovely town of Girona, you will see the statue of a lion. They say, if you kiss it, you will return to Girona. I nearly didn’t kiss it. Because, you know, it’s not like I have not fallen for this kind of bollocks before. Yeah, I threw […]

Taking some time to relax with @Naturaki in Costa Brava

Published: 15th October 2012 by Laurence Norah - Leave a Comment

My Spanish Adventure

I may have mentioned in the odd post recently that Vera and I have been down in Spain, attending a travel blogger conference and then being whisked around the incredible Catalan region with the folks from Visit Costa Brava. The travel blogging conference itself was pretty epic, with two long days of workshops and networking […]

Ballooning in Costa Brava

Published: 10th October 2012 by Laurence Norah - Leave a Comment

My Spanish Adventure

When I learnt, about a month before I was due to head down to Costa Brava, that I was going to be going on a ballooning trip, I was a teeny bit excited. Ok, so I may have wandered around for roughly the next month in a happy daze, mumbling the word “ballooning” at every […]

Overeating in Costa Brava

What to eat in Costa Brava

Those of you who follow me are probably aware that I don’t exactly focus on food on this blog. Sure, I did that post on my favourite burgers, and I do enjoy the act of eating food, but I’ve never really gotten round to real “food blogging”. There are a variety of reasons for this. […]

My Spanish Adventure

Published: 19th September 2012 by Laurence Norah - Leave a Comment

My Spanish Adventure

As previously alluded to, Vera and I are popping down to the Costa Brava region of Spain for the next ten days to take part in the TBEX travel bloggers conference, which is being held in the rather charming Catalan town of Girona. I thought I’d give you a sneak peek of the itinerary we’ve […]
