No...this is nothing like it at all..lol Like a lot of people, I’ve had a...

Having been home a week today, I've been...
The Brexit referendum was on June 23rd 2016 and since then I think that the worry of Brexit that affected the number of UK buyers looking to buy a property in Tenerife has subsided quite a bit since then. There are undoubtedly a number of potential buyers still pondering the pros and cons of what Brexit might bring, so I thought that now we know a little more...or at least we've had time to think about...
At last, the Cabildo of Tenerife have given the go-ahead for the long awaited "Circuit Tenerife Island", the Formula 1 track in Tenerife that I wrote about a couple of years ago. The circuit will be situated close to the village of Atogo, about 2km away from the south airport which will afford great access to the track itself.

Recently the weather has been bad. When I say bad, it's not as bad as it has been in the UK of late but never-the-less, it has been a poor few weeks here in Tenerife. February and especially March are renowned for being the two main months of bad weather in Tenerife, and although I have been here for some years, it is still a shock to the system. This year hasn't been as bad as last year...

As I said in my previous post about the forest fires in Tenerife, I would report on the latest news. Fire fighters are still battling hard to control the outbreak and although the fires near Vilaflor were reportedly contained last night, just short of 700 metres from the towns football stadium, fires further west are still reported as being out of control. Residents of Guía de Isora have been...

Many people ask what is a Calima, the answer is simple, it is a dust storm carrying sand from the Sahara. In fact I remember years ago when I was a teenager, we lived in the south east of England and the weather people said that we were going to be coated in dust from the Sahara desert. At that time, I thought it was fascinating to know that the sand has travelled all the way from Africa to land on...
Apart from the obvious, go-kart racing, there isn't a great opportunity to see any motorsport in Tenerife.
