Travel Guide to Gibraltar

Travel Style in Gibraltar by Liz in Los Angeles, Lifestyle Blogger

Travel Guide to Gibraltar: Gibraltar is a British overseas territory on Spain’s south coast. If you don’t know where Gibraltar is, you’re not the only one. It’s a tax haven, so it always popped up on Banking Compliance reports at work and that’s why I was curious about it. I’m grateful that I finally got a chance to visit.

Gibraltar is well-known as the original rock. It’s like a mini-London. It is very British! The locals are very pride to be part of Great Britain.  Yet, it is Spanish (on the coast of Spain) with a dash of Moroccan, Indian and Jewish!

Also, check out my travel guides to Seville, Spain, Cordova, Spain, and Morocco.

Travel Guide to Gibraltar

I loved strolling in the narrow alleys and discovering little cafes! Typically, locals spend Friday nights at the bars in the town center and head over to Spain on Saturday night. Can you imagine your weekend plans requiring a passport? Only in Europe.

Where to Stay:

Gibraltar is so small that there’s no room to build another hotel on this peninsular. The solution: Sunborn Yacht Hotel. We were fortunate to stay at the Sunborn, a 5-star luxurious floating hotel permanently moored in Gibraltar’s Ocean Village Marina. It has 5 restaurants and bars, including 1 on the top deck alongside the outdoor pool as well as a casino.

What to Do:

If you are planning on visiting this unique location, you wouldn’t be disappointed. As tiny as it is, there is so much to do. Below is just a couple of my favorite things that we got to experience while there:

St Michael’s Cave

St Michael’s Cave is located in the Upper Rock (Rock of Gibraltar) over 300 meters above sea level. The natural site is spectacular with music playing while you’re walking through. The Cathedral Cave (where they hold concerts) seems like the perfect film location for another Angels & Demons movie series.

Monkeying Around

Personally, I kept my distance from the wild, mischievous monkeys that Gibraltar is known for. However, they are one of the most popular tourist attractions on the Rock.

Dolphin Adventure

It was not the first time that I had gone Dolphin watching but the first time that I actually got to see the dolphins up close.

What to Wear:

When I’m traveling I tend to dress more bohemian than usual, that’s why I love the Misa Los Angeles dresses for traveling. They are inspired by the designer’s own travel experiences. What I absolutely loved about this dress was that it was chic and sophisticated; and more importantly, it was wrinkle-free and comfortable. The Cole Haan Oxford look like shoes but they’re sneakers.

You might want to 𝗦𝗔𝗩𝗘 this if you’r You might want to 𝗦𝗔𝗩𝗘 this if you’re an emotional eater. On Instastories, you shared your tips on how to avoid emotional eating and I have your tips listed here: ⁣
🎶 Distractions like music or TV⁣

I was surprised to see how many of you in my community are also emotional eaters. I think the biggest struggle of emotional eating imho is that you don’t even notice how much you’re eating. I once binge ate a box of salami without even realizing cuz I thought I had failed an exam. ⁣
⁣
The best tip I can give you is instead of focusing on emotional eating, focus on the emotions and know they’re temporary. That’s what I remind myself. ⁣

We collectively have difficult memories of this pa We collectively have difficult memories of this past year. But we can still leave 2020 with a sweet note by concentrating on all the good things (no matter how small) happened this year! 🥳⁣

I know I stressed out a lot by worrying  about the health of my family and friends. I felt truly isolated because of social distancing. But, I also miraculously found a job after being unemployed for what felt like a decade + my mom TG is (slowly) recovering from two minor surgeries (which could have been worse if not diagnosed right away)! I also had the support of my IG community when I felt lonely or bored (so thank you guys 💋)⁣
⁣
And we can welcome 2021 with a prayer: Praying this year to be better and healthier and happier. 🎆🎊🎉⁣
