Those who follow our blog may recall that, nearly two years ago, the construction of Juan Ramon and Carlos’s home near Málaga began.
Now, we are heading there to see the final result of this major project.
Torre del Mar (Sea Tower - a lighthouse)—our friends' home base—is a small seaside town; I’ll soon be writing about its attractions (especially the culinary ones).
We’ll be visiting Málaga again, where we’ll try to put an unconventional description of the city to the test:
In Málaga, the people are the main attraction—not the monuments. Every day:
- families out in the city have fun as if it were the most important party of their lives,
- waiters look as though they’re dancing rather than working,
- yacht passengers act as if they’re setting off on the expedition of a lifetime, even though it’s just a sunset.
-
-
In Málaga, light doesn’t just shine—it tells a story:
- Every street has its own narrative, and the illuminations look as if the city is trying to catch up to the stars and shine just as brightly.
-
-
Málaga is a city that knows no loneliness:
- everywhere, people are talking to one another,
- people stand close together,
- even in restaurants, conversations from neighboring tables intertwine like a braid
-
Málaga doesn’t want to be "Instagrammable":
- it doesn’t try to be perfect,
- it is loud, luminous, and a bit chaotic—and that is precisely why it is authentic.

So, see you here starting Wednesday, September 30th.
