Hello Everyone, 

I've come to Villena to escape the cold Canadian winter. Don't laugh. I'll be here for 4 months and I work online. 

I'd be happy to have company exploring Villena and the Costa Blanca region. I don't have a car, but I plan to visit as much as I can by bus, train and my two feet. 

Hi Achama,

I lived in Winterpeg from 1988 - 1998 so "been there - did that".  River Heights - Dorchester and Harrow. (Do you believe me now?)

Now three of my 5  kids live in Canada, my only daughter in Winnipeg, off Corydon.

I'm Irish but recently bought a house in Elda and I am renovating it. Excuse me - having workmen renovate it!

I see you are going to Morocco. I loved it - especially Essaouira.

I will be in France from 6th - 20th January.

I have a car and have been to Villena.

I don't know how to privately email/post someone.  Please do.

Merry Christmas,

Sheila

Hi there,

I’m coming back to Villena at the end of January. I’d love to meet for a coffee. Glad you found the market, it took me weeks 😂

Best wishes

Ahh pleased you found it. We like the spice man’s stall. The inside market on the same site is just all about food. It will be open Thursday/Friday and Saturday mornings. 😎

Hi there, I'm following this conversation with interest, especially with regards to the spice man's stall. I live in Biar and am looking for a good address for spices. Indian, South East Asian, Middle eastern etc. Does the spice man sell these kinds?

He does.... They do. 

I was specifically looking for Indian and I'd vouch that they had almost anything needed. I didn't find curry leaves, but that would have been a stretch. 

If you want to come to the Thursday market, give me a ping and we can bond over coffee and recipes

Excellent, thank you Achama. We have been going to Star Cash and Carry in Alicante and are well stocked for the moment.
