The Castle of Peñíscola. Here, the Holy Grail has been said to be hidden for centuries.

We have arrived. We are in Peñíscola. We are by the sea. Our Little Pearl Tour is almost at its end. Almost, because we want to introduce you to this place, one of the mo

We set off for Peñíscola this morning, after a peaceful night, late in the morning. It was less than 80 kilometers, really. But about halfway through the journey, my stom

Today was a rest day. Getting up slowly. Having breakfast slowly. And then quickly back to bed. I excel at this because: practice makes perfect.

We spent a quiet night in Alcalá de la Selva. That wasn't necessarily to be expected, as we parked in the only larger parking lot in the area. There were only two cars pa

For the first time on our tour, we're spending the night in a village that isn't among the 126 most beautiful in Spain. We stopped in Alcalá de la Selva because...

We actually wanted to go to the city wall today, but then we decided against it. We did a little research and asked around. The route up to the city wall is only accessib

Albarracín is a terrible town! We set out for our first exploration tour late this morning, but we didn't get far. At every corner lurked a photo opportunity that was har

Before our departure from Linares de Mora, I took a walk up to the cemetery this morning, at the foot of which we had spent two extremely quiet nights. The many veil-like

Let me clarify: We did not stay in Puertomingalvo. I had just sent off the blog post from yesterday when my partner remembered that she would like to move on because 1. t

Puertomingalvo takes us to the peak of our tour – in more ways than one. We will spend the night today at over 1,500 meters above sea level. We have never been higher in

It wasn't easy to leave Mirambel this morning. The 100-inhabitant village had truly enchanted us. So, we spontaneously decided to stroll through its alleys once more and grab a...

Today was not my day. It actually started out quite well. We restocked our supplies in Morella, exchanged a gas bottle, and reached Mirambel without any major issues. How

Today was a highlight of our tour for Icke and me. While Icke shopped undisturbed for three hours, I conquered the Castillo de Morella, one of the most impressive buildin

Morella is a little gem. We spent many hours today wandering through this town, which has a very special aura. I'm sitting here with a coffee and

Today it rained from morning until evening. We had prepared for that. So we first thoroughly slept in, and those who know us know what that means: We got up when others w

Anyone crossing the old stone bridge over the Matarraña and then passing through the medieval city gate feels transported back a few centuries. Behind it opens t

Today we have already traveled 25 kilometers to Valderrobres, our second stop. Actually, we had planned to spend two days in each village, but Icke had a few good reasons

The road from Castelldefels to Calaceite passed through a beautiful mountainous landscape

We are sitting on the terrace of a café on the beach in Castelldefels, enjoying the sun. A warm breeze is blowing from the sea over the promenade, which is almost as wide as a...

I really have to speak up now. I had originally planned to wait until we were all together to start – Icke won't arrive in Barcelona until tomorrow by plane – but this
