Our next stop was the town of Ronda, a quaint beauty in the hills of Andalucía. Generally tourist groups only spend a day there, bussing in and out while on their way to another city. We were lucky enough to spend a couple of days in the town, exploring the unique terrain and exciting events. We were able to go on a small hike, find little shops, and enjoy our time together in a slower environment than the big cities we had seen so far.

The hotel we stayed at in Ronda was an old house with cute rooms and friendly owners. There was even a little movie room with four movie theater chairs for rainy days when there is not much to do outside. Our room had many windows, including two that looked out into the courtyard, through which we took a fun photo of one another (left and middle photos). We also attended an event organized by our tour guide Rich! We saw local famous flamenco guitar artist Paco Seco preform in an intimate setting (right photo). Camille had the opportunity to have a conversation with him in Spanish, and he was incredibly kind and happy to give restaurant recommendations!
