FeelGood Radio The Sound Of The Costa
In Villajoyosa, there is no day when the year officially begins. No moment when someone decides that things must now be different. You only notice it afterwards, in the way things start happening again without effort. Shops return to their normal opening hours. Streets are used as they always were. People walk somewhere without it being about anything. Suddenly, ordinary life takes the lead again. The new year has been […]
I see it happen often in the afternoon. No sportswear, no watch, no route. Someone closes the door and walks away. Not to get anywhere, but simply to be outside for a while. Walking without a goal. Without a plan, without pace. It looks unremarkable, almost too simple to be called “exercise”. And yet, something important happens there. Movement without making it a workout In many countries, movement is something […]
The market in January looks smaller in Spain than it really is. Not because there is less on offer, but because nothing shouts. The colours are softer, the piles lower, the repetition greater. You see the same shapes, the same products, the same order. A quick glance suggests there’s little to buy. Stay a moment longer, and you realise the market is doing something other than selling. Less choice, more […]
The morning after Three Kings’ Day feels different from other mornings. The calendar says life is back to normal, but the body lags behind. Not exhausted, not refreshed. More neutral — as if the system hasn’t quite decided which mode to switch to yet. The festivities are officially over, but the engine doesn’t start straight away. That in-between feeling is often misread. We tend to think something has to happen […]
December may still feel mild along the Costa, but it’s a month full of temptations. Food, drinks, late nights, and a rhythm that can easily lose its shape. Still, you don’t have to deprive yourself to feel good. Staying healthy through December isn’t about discipline — it’s about balance. Balance over being strict Many people treat December as a month where everything goes out the window, planning to “fix it” […]
There was a time I believed air conditioning was the holy grail. One press of a button and your house becomes a cool cocoon. Until I realised that cocoon doesn’t just drain your electricity bill — it dulls your senses too. Everything goes quiet, dry, and vaguely unnatural. Worse still: you lose the rhythm. Regular readers of this column will know I gave up on air conditioning a while ago. […]
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 […]
