I felt safe in Tenerife, although I’m not sure if it was because of the island itself or because I was with my boyfriend. I highly recommend going kayaking to see turtles and dolphins, such an unforgettable experience ! There are plenty of great activities on GetYourGuide, and I also took a trip to Mount Teide for the sunset and stargazing, which was magical. When it comes to restaurants, be cautious, there are many tourist traps where servers stop you in the street, make you believe they’re offering you a free starter, and then charge you for it, and often at higher prices than it’s worth. I’d suggest looking for more local, less touristy places to eat. I stayed in Los Cristianos and loved it, very lively, close to many beautiful spots and activities. It’s also super easy to get around by bus, and you can buy day passes that cover the whole island, which I definitely recommend 🏝️

I traveled to Valencia with my brother and it was an incredible experience. I did feel that Valencia has its own culture, they’re Valencian before they’re Spanish. I really liked this experience there was a lot of cool museum to visit and the food was amazing. Definitely don’t forget to visit the main market.

I really loved Madrid coming from the states it’s a really good blend of cultures. Literally can find good Asian or Latin food anywhere. Spanish food and history is really interesting here and there’s always something to do.

Went with a friend to escape barcelona for a bit. We slept in hammocks outside, nobody complained. Met local fishermen and a german dude who was also just hanging with them. Street people do not speak english so thats where i finally let go and started speaking spanish. Overall nice town, very pretty. Pasty shops are usually happy to give you whats left at the end of the day.

The paella in coastal towns is worth the hype, especially when it’s freshly made for two. Don’t skip ensaimadas (the fluffy spiral pastries) with coffee in the morning, and if you like tapas, order pimientos de padrón and patatas bravas — they’re everywhere and always different. Also, if you’re into ice cream, there are small artisanal gelato spots in almost every seaside town. Things to do: Cala Varques & Cala Mondragó – the kind of beaches you see in postcards, with turquoise water and soft sand. Alcudia Old Town – cobblestone streets, little cafés, and a nice market. Cap de Formentor – dramatic cliffs and views that feel unreal (the drive up is half the adventure). Palma – the cathedral is massive and beautiful, and the little streets nearby are full of hidden tapas bars. Boat trip along the coast – totally worth it for the views and swimming spots you can’t reach by land.

Cordoba is very safe, in turistic zones you have to be aware of pickpockets but it isn't a city to be afraid of. As it is a residential city, you will find that it is nice to live, as the criminality rate is low. (sorry for my english jaja)
