My name is Laura. I am an accredited Andalusian tourist guide, specialising in the city of Granada -my birthplace and home - and its surrounding Province. I have a Master's in tourism, but I am also a writer, and passionate about art and history. I have been working as a guide five years now, and I really love my work. Working in the city I love and showing my clients around it, connecting with them through its history and people is a priviledge. I would like to invite you to a feast for the senses, to learn about the history of an enchanted city, and to feel its magic. Walk into the past through its streets and its old quarters. Discover its society and its ways. Experience its sounds and fragrances, and wonder at its beauty and the sensuality of its art. I am your companion and guide, helping you to adapt the tour to your particular interests to make this visit an enjoyable and great experience. Master in Tourism Accredited Andalusian guide. Junta de Andalucía. None

In the days of the Sultans, a clever and well-educated 17 year old woman, a poet, begins her work as a teacher in the Court of Granada. But the twelfth century is a very turbulent time.

She falls in love with another young poet, the Vizier; but his master, the son of the Caliph, also desires her… A genuine, precocious feminist who became a famed teacher and one of the greatest poets of her age. Discover this beautiful but tragic and wonderful story.
