FeelGood Radio The Sound Of The Costa
Waiting here isn’t a punishment — it’s a habit. In Spain, time doesn’t seem to be measured in minutes, but in moments. The bus arrives when it arrives, the plumber comes “around midday”, and the post office closes when the person behind the counter feels like it. What triggers frustration in Northern Europe turns into something close to philosophy here: a quiet exercise in letting go. The Spanish lifestyle forces […]
There is a kind of silence that exists only in this month. Not the silence of emptiness, but the silence of breathing out after a busy season. The summer crowds have gone, the sun burns more gently, and in November the narrow streets of Spanish villages once again carry the rhythm of everyday life. I notice it every time I walk through the old quarters of Benissa or Gata de […]
In November, the light along the Costa seems to fall differently. The days are shorter, the sea is cooler, and the evenings invite you indoors. I suddenly felt like doing something I hadn’t done in years: an old-fashioned movie night. No Netflix, no streaming lists — just sitting in a cinema, among other people. That’s how my small journey began, exploring what still remains of Spanish cinema culture. The first […]
Some journeys begin without you even realising it. A glass of wine, the scent of earth, a name on a label — and suddenly you’re on your way. As I travel along Spain’s ancient wine routes, I’m struck by how wine here isn’t just something to drink, but something to experience. It travels with history, winds through time and landscape, and tells along the way what words sometimes cannot. The […]
I still remember the first time I heard the name Fondillón. A friend from Alicante mentioned it almost in a whisper, as if it were a secret reserved for the initiated. “A wine even kings used to drink,” he added. It sounded like a myth — until I discovered that Fondillón truly exists, and is in fact one of the most extraordinary wines in Spain. In the lead-up to this […]
When I drank my first glass of wine on a village square in Jalón a few years ago, the waiter told me, “These grapes could have been planted by the Romans.” I smiled, but when I later did some reading, there turned out to be some truth in it. In Spain, a glass of wine is never just a drink — it’s liquid history. Welcome to the world of Spanish […]
Some encounters are carefully planned, others happen naturally. El Encuentro – literally The Meeting – promises to be a bit of both. On Friday, October 3rd, Casa Pepa in Ondara opens its doors for an afternoon dedicated to tasting, discovering and connecting. From 1:00 to 5:00 pm, the historic finca will transform into a lively space where gastronomy, art and lifestyle come together. El Encuentro Friday, October 3rd - 1:00 […]
Late August holds a certain magic. The hottest days are behind you, but the sun is still generous, and the evenings feel longer than ever. The rush of peak tourist season begins to fade, while life on the streets somehow feels even more vibrant. It’s the time when you truly discover the essence of late summer in Spain — without the frantic pace of high season. Village festivals and processions […]
After the noise and colour of the Feria de Málaga, I decide to linger a little longer in the south. The contrast couldn’t be greater: from the vibrant festivities to the stillness of the pueblos blancos — the white villages of Andalusia, clinging to the hillsides like snowflakes. A sea of white in the sun There’s something hypnotic about the way these villages settle into the landscape. Whitewashed façades, narrow […]
