Valencia is probably the most underrated city of Spain. Even though it is the third largest city of Spain and it has a lot to offer, it’s still one of the most authentic. It’s not packed (yet) with tourists like Barcelona, Madrid or Sevilla. Which makes it all the more pleasant to visit. Valencia isn’t known for world famous monuments, but it does have some impressive architecture to admire. Good food can be found behind every corner and the shopping options are limitless!

Live a fearless happy life
There’s something I need to get off my chest about fear. Recently I experienced a setback because of fear and this made me realize how much I changed in the last 2 years. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not the one who was afraid, I’m a firm believer of not letting anything holding me back from doing something. Today someone even told me I’m a great example of how you should live life and handle situations. So that’s why I decided to write another motivational post; so hopefully I can inspire people to be fearless too and live life to the fullest!

Hiking in Madeira: 5 most epic hikes you must do
Hiking in Madeira is a must if you want to explore the island’s most beautiful places. The canyons, impressive landscapes and waterfalls that are hidden in the lush forests and mountains can’t be seen from the road. Especially the levada walks are very popular.

Situated in the North Atlantic Ocean, the Azores are still unspoiled, not (yet) packed with tourists and probably the greenest islands you’ll ever encounter in your life. They are a true paradise on earth and they’re not called the Hawaii of Europe for nothing. Oh, and a fun fact; there are more cows than humans.
