I am a college senior (female), and am planning to travel alone in Spain before I meet up with my friend who lives in London.
I will probably have around 6-7 days. I know that my time is pretty limited, and I feel totally lost planning this.
I have high endurance so hopefully that is a plus!
I will be in Spain starting from around 12/16, so I want to visit more of the temperate places. I do not mind not visiting Madrid.
I would really really appreciate suggestions for a simple itinerary.
Thank you!
ie...what are your interests? Why did you choose Spain?
I will be flying straight from SFO to Spain.
I love the nature and looking at historical places. I am not so much a gallery-type person. Pretty much anywhere that has beautiful scenery would make me happy!
I chose Spain because all of my friends who have been to Europe say that Spain is there favorite place. Also, it seems like Spain would have the best weather during the winter.

If you can, please write in to LP and tell us how your trip to Spain went. Like you, I will be traveling solo to Spain for the first time over 8 days, starting Dec. 27. I also chose Andalucia for the possibility of slightly warmer weather, historical sites, the food, etc. But since I love museums, I am spending my first 3 nights (a weekend) in Madrid. Then, 2 nights in Seville (including New Year's Eve), and 2 nights in Granada, all via a Spain rail pass. On the trip back to Madrid, I plan to hop off the train in Cordoba for ~ 4 hours and pay what will likely be too short a visit to the Mezquita. I know it is a lot to pack into 8 days, but I really wanted to see the major highlights.
What type of traveling are you doing? I'd be interested to workshop gear lists, budgets, etc with you if our styles are similar.
