Barry Byrne talks about the Anti-Tourism Movement in Mallorca

How did the anti-tourist movement grow and do Mallorcans really want everyone to go home now? We meet with Barry to talk about what the underlying problems are. How social housing could be the solution. We also talk about how tourism has changed. Post pandemic, we are comparing recent memories of empty beaches and quiet towns to the bumper seasons we are seeing again. But also how tourism has changed, from staying in resort to now hunting down the most sought after hidden spots, the best secrets of beautiful places, sometimes all for the Instagram money shot. It's a really interesting conversation and in it, Barry proposes what we should be doing in response to the movement. How we can change attitudes and make a difference with voting locally and talking to our friends and neighbours. Have a listen and let us know your thoughts.

Ep. 15 Lucy & Jo Share Top Tips for Anyone Visiting the North of Mallorca

What's your favourite beach in the north? Where do you park? The best restaurant in Alcudia, or Puerto Pollensa? Lucy and Jo have a chat - just the two of them - and chat about their favourite places to go during the summer.

Ep. 14 Lucy & Jo Meet Annemiek Keur

We have a quick look at the week ahead and all that the St. Pere festivities bring in Puerto Alcudia, especially. This week's guest is Annemiek Keur. A Psyche-K specialist Annemiek is all about compassionate empowerment; "Changing your mind at the subconscious level is an important step towards changing your reality." Whether you are trying to find purpose in your life, are dealing with trauma or struggling in any area of your life, Annemiek helps you look at yourself and your life from a different perspective and literally change your mind, or mindset. By changing your perception of a situation, you will not only change how you feel about it, but as a consequence you will act differently which in turn will also have an effect on the situation.

Ep. 13, Lucy is back with Jo to talk to Carys about EFT Tapping

One of the joys of living in the north of Mallorca is the people you share it with. The island draws people from all kinds of backgrounds who work in so many different areas. This week, we met with Carys who opened our eyes to an amazing well-being tool that is literally at our fingertips, EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) Tapping. Tapping is a self-help method that combines elements of cognitive therapy and acupressure to manage emotions and reduce stress. Carys is about to launch an app that will guide users so they can implement Tapping into their daily lives. Her journey from dance to fitness training to this more holistic tool is fascinating and will resonate with all of us.
