UVA In Valencia

Last day in Granada! 💔
Today, we had a hearty breakfast at the hotel buffet and started the morning with full energy for a walking tour around the Albaicín and downtown Granada.
Every place we discovered was awesome. The view from the Albaicín of the Alhambra and snow-covered Sierra Nevada was breathtaking.
Then we had time for lunch and now we’re back to Valencia. Sad that the weekend is ending but happy to have explored this beautiful city.

Today we went on a trip to Morella, and what an awesome day we had!
This town is absolutely beautiful, with a spectacular castle. We wandered through its charming streets and ventured up to the top of the castle.
Some of us almost didn’t make it to the top, so many stairs… 😅 But it was worth it for the incredible views we had from up there! 🏰✨
