This is my second time at Hedla neurohabil. My wife works too much of course and can't be off. It's very nice in southern Spain in the spring. I landed in Malaga in the morning and I'm waiting for a fellow patient, whom I haven't met before. Then we take a taxi to Almuñécar to our hotel. It's about 100 kilometers east on the coast. Hedla is located in Almuñécar, which is a small cute town on the coast.It's an elegant hotel located on the beach Playa del Pozuelo. All rooms and balconies are facing either the pool on your own side or a park where we usually play boules.The hotel offers a room type called Junior Suite which consists of two rooms, one room with a double bed and large wardrobe and a living room with a small table with chairs and a sofa bed. These rooms also have a larger terrace with their own sun loungers.The local bus also stops outside the hotel and offers a smooth journey to the city centre. The city centre is approximately 3.5 km from the hotel and can be reached via the beautiful promenade that…

My first Hedla stay at the neurohabilitation center

My first Hedla stay at the neurohabilitation center

Rehabilitation Diary – My Time in Almuñécar I’m now in the first of three weeks at the rehabilitation center. It’s been a great week – the staff here are incredibly kind and professional. On the very first day, I met with a physiotherapist, a doctor, and a speech therapist. The physiotherapist tested my physical abilities for about 45–60 minutes, followed by a medical consultation, and finally, the speech therapist evaluated my language and speech. There are six of us patients and around 5–6 staff members. All of us except one have brain injuries – the exception being someone with a spinal injury. I still have some difficulties with speech, which is why I work daily with a speech therapist. I've had up to five speech therapy sessions per day, and two physiotherapy sessions. By the evening, I’m completely exhausted. Last weekend, Ole and I took the bus to Almuñécar. At one point we split up – Ingrid and I were curious about the town’s history, while Ole wanted to enjoy some birdwatching and relax at a café. We decided to walk along the coastline instead of waiting for a delayed bus…

A kayak trip during the month of May

I was alone in the cabin and I was renovating the entire interior, from the croft foundation to the inside of the roof. Everything was going to be demolished and we filled a container with 20 square meters of trash. Anders and I worked together, Anders is a carpenter and is very experienced.https://youtu.be/Bplb6wDjIychttps://youtu.be/ednpPkgV0Mg

To Almuñécar

To Almuñécar

It sounds like you had a lovely walk from Hotel Bahía Tropical to Almuñécar. The hotel is located on Playa del Pozuelo, which provides easy access to the beach. ​On the way, you passed the Torreón de Taramay, a historic watchtower located between Playa del Tesorillo and Playa del Pozuelo. This tower, built in 1764, was used to defend the nearby coves with cannon artillery. ​The walk along the long beach to Almuñécar is truly scenic and is appreciated by many visitors. The distance from the hotel to the city center is approximately 2 kilometers, which takes about 30 minutes to walk. ​The weather in Almuñécar today is mostly sunny with a temperature of around 20°C, making it ideal for such a walk.​Almuñécar is a city rich in history, dating back to the Phoenicians around 800 BC and later the Romans around 100 BC. One of the prominent historical landmarks is the Castillo de San Miguel, a castle dating back to the 1st century BC and expanded with 40 towers and three gates during the Moorish period. Today, there is a small museum within the castle grounds.It is understandable that the…
