Valle is a gracious and welcoming person who is both fun and funny! Her help with understaning the language and culture of Andalucia made my month long stay in Málaga a memorable experience. As a native Malagueña - born and raised - she was always ready with suggestions about things to do and places to see. Several times we sat laughing and talking together and sampling tapas and vinos tintos at a few of her favorite local restauarants. Valle doesn't know a stranger and anyone who stays at her place will feel well-met. Valle's warmth and hospitality made my stay on the Costa del Sol so much richer. It is nice to be able to consider her a true friend.
