Paula


Paula Cortina


Born and raised in Málaga, Andalusia, Paula studied “Media Communications” and took a Masters in Multicamara. She took her skills with her to TeleMadrid, where she   worked as a floor manager. She loved her work there but the pull of travel, after so study programs and trips abroad in her teenage years, began to take her in another direction. With her English polished during a year in Whidbey Island, Washington State and subsequent travels to California, Wyoming, Colorado, Las Vegas, Florida, Washington DC and New York, Paula entered the word of travel.
The bug caught on quickly and she roamed around Europe and Asia as much as possible. We welcome her into our team in August 2008 and she has quickly settled in.

Other than travel, Paula doesn’t waste a spare minute. Whether it’s the movies, dining out, sports or photography she energetically embraces life.



Favourite Special Experience: In summer I love the virgin beaches and diving off the Cabo de Gata. In spring, the blossoms of Sevilla with the colour of the April Fair. In the fall and winter, a long hike through the lower mountains and forests finishing with a roast lamb in front of log fire... ideally in the picture book village of  Pedraza, near Segovia.
Favourite Hotels: I love Paradors. As a Malagueña I’m totally biased but the El Parador de Gibralfaro offers spectacular views over the city and the Mediterranean Sea.
Best meal: I love fresh fried fish and “espetos”, a typical seafood dish from the south.
Favourite Monuments / Museums:

If I had to pick one monument, it would have to be La Alhambra, I used to spend weekends there, and can easily rekindle the memories of strolling through the through the Generalife gardens at sunset – magical!

Favourite Fiesta: Málaga’s Fair of course! Elsewhere the Carnival celebrations in Cádiz!
Favourite Escape:

Heading to the Pyrenees for some trekking in Ordesa, heading along the Vero River and ending up in the mountain village of Alquézar.
