2017 Aug Costa Adeje, Tenerife, Canary Islands
Tenerife was a place where time slows down and every day ends with a golden sunset.
We based ourselves near Costa Adeje, exploring black sand beaches, volcanic trails in Teide National Park, and charming mountain villages like Masca. The island’s landscapes are pure contrast — one day hiking above the clouds, the next sipping sangria by the sea.
Tenerife’s warmth, both in weather and people, was the ideal way to wrap up our Europe trip — relaxing, adventurous, and endlessly beautiful.
