Are you working from home? Great! As you can bring your laptop with you, it’s the perfect time to enjoy a change of scenery for a few days and discover new places.

Donostia is a fascinating city, with its unique gastronomy and outstanding beauty. But its privileged location on the Cantabrian coast has also turned it into the habitual destination for all lovers of surfing looking to take advantage of the best waves without having to leave the whirl of the big city.

While the La Concha beach is one of the more glamorous and traditional images of San Sebastián (its shell is replicated in the awards that are presented at the annual film festival), the La Zurriola beach has set itself up as one of the great paradises for surfers that live in the capital of Guipuzcoa. Flanked by the delightful Kursaal building and by the esplanade of the Gros district, this 800 metre long beach has also been the setting for some of the concerts of the San Sebastián Jazz Festival and the huge events taking place during the Semana Grande, in addition to surf and skate competitions and other events.

On the right of Po’s bridge and near Piazza Vittorio Veneto lies Monte dei Cappuccini , a hill from where you can admire the wonderfulviews Turin has to offer. Of great importance to the Capuchin friars that are in Santa Maria del Monte’s convent, it has also been since ancient times a pilgrimage destination for the more spiritual ones.

Initially built for defensive purposes, the convent building dates back to the thirteenth century. In 1988 was built a funicular railway, but bombings during the war had destroyed it, although the walk well worth it, about 15 minutes from the Church of the Gran Madre di Dio will be enough to get there, and if you are lucky and you have a clear day, you can spot the Alps.

If you still need any more reasons to go to Turin and up to this beautiful hill, the Museo Nazionale della Montagna is another reason that may finally convince you.
