If I had to describe this entire experience in one word, it would be unforgettable. This is my final blog, and it only feels right to end it by looking back at all the amazing things we got to do in Tenerife! Not just the big moments, but also the small ones that made everything feel so special.

One of the highlights was definitely exploring Santa Cruz. Walking through the city felt so alive, with a mix of modern buildings and culture everywhere you looked. We also visited the Palmetum, which honestly felt like stepping into a completely different world. Surrounded by so many different types of palm trees and greenery, it was peaceful but also really interesting to see plants from all over the world in one place.

Then there was the Monkey Park, which was such a fun and unexpected experience. Being so close to the animals, especially the monkeys, made it feel a lot more interactive than a typical zoo. It was one of those moments where everyone was just laughing, taking pictures, and enjoying being in the moment.

Of course, the beaches were a huge part of the trip. Playa de Las Americas had such a lively vibe, full of energy and people enjoying the sun. Los Cristianos felt a bit more relaxed, perfect for just chilling and taking everything in. And then Playa de Las Teresitas…probably one of the most beautiful beaches I’ve ever seen. The golden sand and calm water made it feel almost unreal, like something out of a postcard. But the best part was the tan I got from those beaches!

We also spent time just walking, simple, but honestly some of the best memories came from that. Whether it was random walks in the evenings or exploring San Andres, those moments gave us time to talk, laugh, and really connect. Sometimes it’s not about where you are, but who you’re with, and those walks reminded me of that.

Loro Parque and Siam Park were on a whole different level. Loro Parque was so impressive, with so many animals and shows that were both fun and fascinating. You could tell a lot of effort went into everything there. Siam Park, though, was just pure adrenaline and excitement. The rides, the atmosphere, everything about it made it one of the most fun days of the entire trip.

Shopping was another part I didn’t expect to enjoy as much as I did. From flea markets to different local shops, there was always something interesting to find. It wasn’t just about buying things, but also about seeing local products and getting a feel for the culture. Even the airport ended up being part of the experience, with that mix of excitement and sadness as everything was coming to an end.

Looking back, it’s crazy how much we managed to do and experience in such a short time. Every place, every activity, and every moment added something to the trip. But more than anything, it was the people and the memories we made that made it so special.

I feel so grateful to have been part of this experience. It’s something I’ll remember for a long time, and honestly, I really hope I get the chance to go again next year. Because if this trip taught me anything, it’s that experiences like this are truly once in a lifetime and if you get the chance, you should take it.
