Cádiz, one of the oldest cities in Europe and surrounded on 3 3/4 sides by water is currently providing me with shelter within its ancient walls.
The old town is one of the nicest I’ve ever seen. The buildings are in good shape, free of satellite dishes and the alleys too narrow to park cars.
The place is rather affordable and a meal can be had for 4-5 Euros (small Cerveza included). Tapas are very common, which means that one can try small portions of several dishes. Bit like Southeast Asia.
By now I have largely recovered from “the week without sleep” and have also gotten a fair bit of work done. My usual after-work program is a swim in the ocean and then sitting idly by the sea.
