Thank you, I appreciate it

Your funny in a good way. Glad you are enjoying yourself so much. We just got back from a month and a half in your part of Spain. As a matter of fact,, we were based in Estepona for a good portion of our visit with friends living there. We loved it too. Enjoy my brother!

[@TheEmptyMiddleSeatTravel]

Thank you. The whole region is amazing. and there is so much to discover.

[@gypsyrubbertramps3487]

One of our favorite places to stay in Spain.

Love your enthusiasm, my husband and I have a holiday home in the next town along from Estepona. You should definately visit Casares Pueblo and there are some amazing resturants up there. Also the Manilva Roman baths and La Duquesa marina is just the prettiest little spot to have a coffee. We will be following your journey. 😊

[@TheEmptyMiddleSeatTravel]

Thanks for the information. I will be back to the area multiple times, I will definitely check out Casares Pueblo. I was actually in Estepona yesterday for a quick appointment, it's a beautiful place.

Love your vids , we have a holiday home over there and not yet discovered some of the places . Benahavis village is absolutely gorgeous place to visit. They have a fantastic walk around the trail Guadalmina I’m sure you will enjoy.

[@TheEmptyMiddleSeatTravel]

Thanks so much. The Costa del Sol is such a wonderful place. I will definitely be heading to Benahavis at some point, thanks for the tip. I have lots of exploring to do!

[@CelticPaths4k]

It is a very beautiful place and the day was sunny and perfect to stay outdoors👏👏

[@TheEmptyMiddleSeatTravel]

It was a beautiful place, I can't wait to go back and explore the ruins on the outskirts of town.

[@Definitely-not-the-FBI]

If you like driving through the mountains, there’s some really nice dams around north Benahavis - Istan

[@fionasteinbrecht60]

Hi again, liked Estapona a lot, love the idea of living where you can eat fresh sea food. Healthy living for sure ! Enjoy it all !

[@beatapfizer3601]

The orchidarium is really small inside so you could do it in 10-15 minutes

[@TheEmptyMiddleSeatTravel]

Good to know, thank you.

[@shellygaddes8896]

[@Ana-Maria-Sierra]

What a beautiful town! What’s the year round population?

[@TheEmptyMiddleSeatTravel]

I thought it was a fantastic place. The population is about 70000 year round.

After living in Fuengirola now for a while, do you feel like you moved to the right place? Would be fun to hear how Estepona compare now after you’ve visited!

[@TheEmptyMiddleSeatTravel]

I am enjoying living in Spain and Fuengirola is great. But Fuengirola is a stepping stone, you have to start somewhere. We are looking for properties here in the city, but also investigating the Costa Blanca. Not sure where we will end up buying in the end. Estepona is fantastic, but I do not think I would live there. I will be visiting regularly though.

[@FirstRoundBye]

Nice videos. I'm currently looking at schools in Estepona and Fuengirola to teach the 2023-24 school year. What would you recommend for a single guy in their late-20s to live in for a year or two? I'm leaning towards Fuengirola because of the easier transportation to Malaga via rail, but Estepona just looks so beautiful.

[@TheEmptyMiddleSeatTravel]

I would say Feungirola has a lot more to offer a young guy. Besides transportation and shopping, there would be more nightlife and opportunity to meet people. Estepona is beautiful but I find it's a bit sleepy. It's a great place to visit, but I couldn't see myself living there and I'm mid-forties. Good luck.

[@lmilantoni99]

FYI, that restaurant is one of the best or the best fish restaurants in Estepona....

[@TheEmptyMiddleSeatTravel]

I can see why, it was absolutely fantastic

[@hananeh2823]

Can someone tell me if I can live, teach in French or English in this beautiful city?

[@Julia-fo4tk]

It is not a city. There isn't even decent public transport. More like a formula one race course.

[@user-gq1sh4kf4w]

Where is the garden?

[@TheEmptyMiddleSeatTravel]

The entire city is the garden. There are beds, pots, parks and every plaza is overflowing with plants and flowers.
