Reorganising your life in summer: fresh calm for a warm season

In autumn, people do a big clean. In spring, they detox. But I believe July is actually the best time to recalibrate your life. Not with scrubbing cloths or endless to-do lists, but with sunlight and softness. Summer lets us reorganise life without rigid lines. No Marie Kondo, just mental space. What summer does to you Since moving to Spain, I notice it every year: summer gently loosens you from […]

Cycling on the Costa Blanca: from easy cruising to serious climbs

I still remember my very first morning ride in Spain — struggling up a hill, sweat down my back, wrong gear, but a breathtaking view. Someone behind me called out “¡ánimo!”, and moments later a local flew past looking like he was just heading to the bakery. That’s when it clicked: cycling on the Costa Blanca is something else entirely. Not just physically, but mentally too. It’s movement with a […]

Sleeping like a Spaniard

From the moment I moved to Spain, I was fascinated by how late everything starts here. Evenings don’t really begin until after ten. Kids still playing on the terrace at eleven. And TV shows that kick off around the time I used to be brushing my teeth back in the Netherlands. At first, I thought: “What a mess.” But now I see it differently. Spaniards may have their own rhythm […]

How much should you walk per day? Science debunks the 10,000-steps-a-day myth

If there is one figure that has been bandied about in the field of the health benefits of physical exercise, it is that of walking 10,000 steps per day, the equivalent of about seven kilometres. It has even been said to be a recommendation of the World Health Organization (WHO), but the WHO does not mention this number in its advice for healthy living. For the 18-64 age group, it […]
