Six months ago, I moved from northern Italy to the coastal city of Málaga in southern Spain, the heart of the Costa del Sol.
Since then, I’ve come to understand why so many people fall in love with this part of the world.
This isn’t a travel guide; it’s a reflection on some of the things that make me feel really grateful for having the opportunity to live here.
In this video, I share some of my experience of what it’s like to live here and the things I love about it so far:
00:00 – Intro
01:10 – The Weather
02:19 – The Sea and Outdoor Life
04:20 – The Food
06:34 – Events and Celebrations
08:12 – History and Architecture
10:05 – The Lifestyle
11:17 – Reflections
If you’ve ever dreamed of moving abroad, living by the sea, or just slowing down, this video is for you.

– Known for its 3,000 hours (300 days) of sunshine per year, vibrant cultural mix, and laid-back lifestyle.
