Gran Canaria
Like books that tell stories of adventures and incredible places, the island of Gran Canaria surprises with its contrast of landscapes, towns and main city, which well deserves the name of a miniature continent.
A few kilometers from the west coast of Morocco and a two and a half hour flight from Madrid, we feel the sensation of having arrived at the Fortunate Islands which, as a myth, were narrated by several classic writers.
The contrast of landscapes, with arid and subtropical areas, which give rise to deep ravines and high cliffs, leads to exuberant pine forests, hills and altitudes that contrast with sandy beaches of various colors, a desert area in the south and a city in the north. that appears more cosmopolitan every time.
Greece
When we visited the Hellenic country, we left them with the desire to return soon. Cradle of the West, where rights, philosophy and democracy were first discussed, has much more than the great Acropolis.
Athens is not the typical European city with Renaissance palaces and voluminous avenues, but it has more than 3,400 years of history and boasts one of the richest archaeological sites on the planet.
Greek cuisine in Athens has a wide range of dishes full of flavors, meats and vegetables. Beyond the popular gyro and the undisputed moussaka, there are the pork or lamb skewers, the stews or the eggplants stuffed with beef that please the most demanding palates.
If you like cheese, for breakfast or snack, be sure to try the feta cheese empanadas.
Panama
This isthmus unites the Americas and allows crossing from the Pacific to the Atlantic. But in addition to commerce and a tax haven, in Panama there are beaches, jungles, towns and gastronomy to discover, as well as a capital city where the old town contrasts with the tall buildings on the other side.
Many go to Panama to learn about the great engineering of the canal, but Panama City is also one of the largest banking centers in the world.
For this reason, at one end there are tall buildings, while at the other the old area, a bastion of history, survives.
Thailand
This country is the most visited in Southeast Asia.
When you arrive in Bangkok, the first place you should visit is the Grand Palace and neighboring Wat Pho, home of the famous Reclining Buddha and massage school.
But there’s more than that. From the capital city to its lush jungles, postcard-perfect beaches, world-class diving, mind-blowing cuisine and affordable prices, this country has a lot to offer.
The city of Chiang Mai is a must-see, a mosaic of ancient temples, massage parlours, music venues and markets.
