Sometimes you plan your trip to the detail, sometimes you just select a convenient flight and go! I live adventures, good stories, and good jokes. Also the bad. More comedy and less drama. And lot of love.

Solo travel experience

I stayed in a mixed gender hostel and I felt safe all the time. At the time there was a corona curfew and we couldn't be outside after 10 pm. Overall fun and an artistic city with a lot of options to go out.

Solo travel experience

Valencia is wonderful! I had the best meal of my life at Canalla Bistro (Ruzafa area). Loved the central location, on a lovely plaza, of my hotel: Ayre Astoria Palace. Of the many museums, my favorite was the Centro del Carmen. There are markets, museums, gardens (miles of them!), fabulous architecture, etc. A terrific trip (and I've traveled lots).
