I specialise in several topics including travel. Not only do I write about travel, but I update travel guides for the American Fodor\u2019s Essential Spain and the UK publications, Rough Guide to Spain and Rough Guide to Andaluc\u00eda. And most important of all? <strong>I\u2019m a real fan of Malaga<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When I\u2019m not writing or researching stuff for Guide to Malaga, you can find me running on the seafront in the bid to get below 2 hours in the next half-marathon (in the 2021 edition I only managed 2\u201904\u201d!). Or strolling under the Pergola, my absolute favourite spot in town. Or enjoying a foodie treat \u2013 usually fish on the beach or tapas in town \u2013 with friends, my husband or, best of all, my two daughters when they pop back home from London.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can read more about me wearing my copywriter hat <a href=\"https:\/\/www.joannastyles.com\/\">on my website<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<style>.kadence-column6972_5db268-50 > .kt-inside-inner-col,.kadence-column6972_5db268-50 > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{border-top-left-radius:0px;border-top-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-left-radius:0px;}.kadence-column6972_5db268-50 > .kt-inside-inner-col{column-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-sm, 1rem);}.kadence-column6972_5db268-50 > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}.kadence-column6972_5db268-50 > .kt-inside-inner-col > .aligncenter{width:100%;}.kadence-column6972_5db268-50 > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{opacity:0.3;}.kadence-column6972_5db268-50{position:relative;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kadence-column6972_5db268-50 > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;justify-content:center;}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.kadence-column6972_5db268-50 > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;justify-content:center;}}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-column kadence-column6972_5db268-50 inner-column-2\"><div class=\"kt-inside-inner-col\"><div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"352\" src=\"https:\/\/www.guidetomalaga.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/joanna-simon-at-table-.jpg\" alt=\"Guide to Malaga on BBC News\" class=\"wp-image-7446\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.guidetomalaga.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/joanna-simon-at-table-.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.guidetomalaga.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/joanna-simon-at-table--175x96.jpg 175w, https:\/\/www.guidetomalaga.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/joanna-simon-at-table--300x165.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Filming with BBC News on Muelle Uno<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-it-all-started\">How it all <mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-theme-palette-1-color\">started<\/mark><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-beginnings\">The beginnings<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I first visited Malaga on a grey January day in 1985 on my way to 6 months of learning Spanish in Granada. My first impressions? Noisy, dirty and not much to see. But despite the unpromising start I married a local and ended up living nearby on the Costa del Sol.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Over the next 30 years we visited Malaga often \u2013 my mother-in-law lived in the city for years and my elder daughter was born here. During this time we\u2019ve watched Malaga become a destination in its own right. <strong>Literally from ugly ducking to swan<\/strong>. Admittedly, there are still some rough edges, but if you\u2019re like me, you don\u2019t mind a city with some grit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In January 2015, my husband and I moved to Malaga from Marbella and began to really discover the city. We realised that apart from a few token pages included in the Costa del Sol section, Malaga didn\u2019t get much mileage in travel guides. So, I set about rectifying this and gave the city more space in <em>Fodor\u2019s Essential Spain<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But that still wasn\u2019t enough and <strong>Malaga deserved much, much more<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-app\">The app<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So, I created Guide to Malaga, the only English travel guide dedicated to the city exclusively. The project began life as an app for mobile phones. <em>The 5 Best of Everything in Malaga<\/em> included personal recommendations on just about anything in the city. I also launched a website to sell the app and included a blog section.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I\u2019m not exactly proud of the app sales figures, but eternally grateful for those who bought it and loved it (and they really did \ud83d\ude0d ). But the blog was something else \u2013 in the space of 15 months, Guide to Malaga started to position itself on Google. Readers wrote asking for more and my fingers whirred away on the keyboard as I produced at least one new article a week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-guide\">The guide<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By autumn 2017, Guide to Malaga was attracting serious traffic so it was time to take the plunge. I discontinued the app and turned the blog into the entire website. 2018 saw an exponential rise in traffic and visitors \u2013 every single month broke the previous record. And Guide to Malaga started to make a real name for itself as the go-to source for information about Malaga, events and things to do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In early 2023, it was time to revamp the website again and this is the result. A faster, slicker site that zips away on mobiles. We\u2019ve also upped the visuals and showcased much more of Malaga. Several of the great photos are by <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ZappaplayZappa\">Manuel Rueda<\/a>, a local photographer who brings out the best of the city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-guide-to-malaga-milestones\">Guide to Malaga <mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-theme-palette-1-color\">milestones<\/mark><\/h2>\n\n\n\n    <div  class=\"gtm-timeline timeline gtm-timeline timeline\">\n        <div class=\"timeline__inner\">\n\n                                <div class=\"timeline__item\">\n                                                    <h5 class=\"timeline__title\">February 2015<\/h5>\n                                                                            <div class=\"timeline__content\"><p>I move to Malaga and discover there\u2019s no dedicated travel guide in English.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n                                            <\/div>\n                    <div class=\"timeline__empty\"><\/div>\n                                    <div class=\"timeline__empty\"><\/div>\n                    <div class=\"timeline__item\">\n                                                    <h5 class=\"timeline__title\">August 2015<\/h5>\n                                                                            <div class=\"timeline__content\"><p>I launch the app and website for Guide to Malaga 1.0.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n                                            <\/div>\n                                    <div class=\"timeline__item\">\n                                                    <h5 class=\"timeline__title\">2016<\/h5>\n                                                                            <div class=\"timeline__content\"><p>The blog section on the website grows massively to reach over 150 posts;
