tapas and beer

Nothing beats Granada's cheap eats and drinks. For every beer, you get free tapas, say whaaaat?!! SO GOOD. A beer is about 2 Euros and with just about 10 Euros you could probably have a slight buzz and a full belly.

Having only been to Barcelona, I didn't really know what to expect from Grenada. It is a bigger city than what I thought it was going to be. It definitely has such an interesting blend of European and Arabic architecture and influence.

MUST SEE: The Alhambra. It is a beautiful fortress that rests in the hills of Granada.
You must also go to the view points at night and take some pretty photos. I suggest to get your ticket online to avoid the line and that way you know the time you are allowed into the palace.








I am now obsessed with Arabic doors. They are so beautiful!! My future home will definitely have some of them.








I roamed around the Albaycin which is the Arabic quarter and Serramonte which is the Gypsy quarter.

I seriously got lost wandering around the Albaycin. The streets are so confusing, small, and at times claustrophobic.
I felt like I was in a maze. An action movie can definitely be shot here!! I was so intrigued by the Arabic influences of Granada that I had to go to Morocco. Next up, Tawny in Moroccco.
