Perhaps you´ve already noticed, maybe it´s news to you: but we moved from the warm and sunny province of Granada to the slightly less sunny province of Cantabria. Why? is the question we get asked so often. ´Because of the amazing waves´, is our answer. Out of respect for the locals (which, yay, now includes us as well, I will …
When I first saw a picture of Riaño in a National Geographic Travel Magazine, and I saw that it was located in Spain, I marked it with a little red heart on my Google Maps (Yes, I have many little red hearts there ;)).
