I would like to travel all around Spain since I'm living in it for now- same with all the other countries I'd like to live in. I'd love to make some friends along the way and make connections that last. New experiences excite me more than anything, and I have plenty of interests, so sightseeing is my jam. Hey, here's the deal- for every person I host, I'll provide a free meal. For every person that hosts me, I'll provide a personalised gift! It could even be handmade, since I'm into arts and crafts. Just give me your interests to let me work out a good gift for you in advance!! 💛💜✨

Solo travel experience

I did my first solo trip in Spain (Barcelona, Peñíscola, Valencia). I felt safe everywhere I went and absolutely loved it. Also met a ton of new people who were super friendly.

Solo travel experience

Spain is fantastic. Started in Madrid, then train to Malaga as a base. Day trips to Granada, Nerja, a Pancho walking tour of Malaga, then hired a driver to Cadiz for a few days. Lovely old beachside town to walk and eat. Day trip by train to Jerez. Home of Sherry and the wonderful dancing horses. Day trip by train to Cordoba and then the train to Seville and another Pancho walking tour and a few days to wander. Seville is magical. All the train trips were safe, quick and easy. I felt safe everywhere.

Solo travel experience

I had an amazing solo trip to Spain. I stayed in Madrid mostly, with a side trip to Toledo (an easy and scenic day trip via train from Madrid) and then stayed in Seville a while. I felt very safe there. I skipped Barcelona but visited there a different time. I found that Barcelona was beautiful, but not as much fun for me solo as it felt like more of a party place.

Solo travel experience

I was recently in Spain on a month long trip. I travelled solo and never had any trouble meeting people and making friends. I visited Malaga, Seville, Madrid and Barcelona. Barcelona was incredible and I was in love with Seville too - lots of charm in that city. Malaga was much more laid back and smaller, very beautiful though and lots of lovely little towns and villages nearby that are worth visiting. I had a lot of fun in Madrid but generally wasn’t that impressed by the city itself - great for a party though. You’ll never be short of hostels in Spain.
