Additional Information
Meeting Point
We will meet at Plaça de Correus, outside the Old Town Post Office (Edifici de Correos y Telégrafos). Look for me by the grand staircase with four imposing columns on the main façade. I don’t carry signs, flags, or umbrellas – just a warm smile and a friendly, relaxed vibe.
