24 Hours in Seville



Seville is not the place where one goes to relax. It's loud and vibrant... and also very hot - going there in the Summer would be suicidal!
Andalucía's biggest city is a tourist-pleaser - flamenco echoing through the streets, ravishing architecture (Moorish, Baroque, Gothic, Roman... you name it!), narrow streets, medieval alleys, cosy tapas bars and cheerful people embracing the true Andalucian lifestyle. 
24 hours were enough for me and my friend Daniela, who drove the car, to experience and absorb Seville's spirit. I tend to avoid crowds but this time was hard not to bump into entire families speaking loudly in every corner. I am glad I have finally visited a place that I consider unmissable but honestly, I couldn't stay there for more than a weekend.

The Rose of Jericho (Anastatica hierochuntica) is a species of resurrection plant, characterized by the ability to use Poikilohydric mechanisms which enable the plant to survive extreme dehydration for years at a time.

I don't usually like rings but this scented pumpkin pie ring is adorable!

This blouse is so pretty!


This porch is inviting, isn't it?

German artist Regine Ramseier created a 'Dandelion Ceiling' - 2000 dandelion flowers were sprayed with an adhesive to fix them and then transported by car to a white room where they were hung. So heavenly!

Some of the Paris Metro Stations reborn as nightclubs, galleries and swimming pools.
