We are Cath and Ian, an Aussie couple who love food, wine and travelling.
Over the last 5 years we have travelled together, starting with a few weeks at a time until 2017 when we are travelling for 12 months.
Arriving in Sevilla We climbed out of Alora, via Ardales and through the mountains, past Campanillo, until the countryside became less undulating. The closer we came to Seville, the flatter it became until we were crossing the kind of plains the rain...
The Eat with Locals Food Tour was recommended by our Airbnb host, Zuzanna. We should say at the outset, we do not usually take tours, preferring to find out about a city ourselves but this is an absolute must do. We chose to do the Old Town Food Tour and...

We arrived in the UNESCO listed town of Fez (Fes) via train, which we have taken to referring to as the Marrakech Express. It was a pleasant half day journey in the second class carriage. It was clean, comfortable and thankfully air-conditioned as it...
