Andalucia Traveler...
Your guide to the food, culture and lifestyle of Central & Southern Spain
After over 12 years visiting Spain we've become 'natives' joining the locals and enjoying the Spanish culture and lifestyle. Travel with us here, to Andalucia, Madrid, Valencia and beyond.
The word Spain conjures images of flamenco dancers, bullfighters, and white hillside villages. Beyond these traditional associations you'll find that Spain is really several countries within a country, with cutting-edge art museums, green highland valleys, soaring cathedrals, medieval towns, designer cuisine, raucous nightlife, and an immense treasury of paintings and sculptures.
