I am lucky of being able to work from Málaga, the capital city of the Costa del Sol in the south of Spain. Málaga is a very nice and livable city, but also a very active area in the ICT /digital sector. I also work remotely for clients from Madrid, Barcelona or London, and travel to work onsite if required (Málaga is very well-connected with the main cities in Spain and Europe through speed trains and international flights).
