When talking about the Canary Islands, everybody mentions their fantastic fine sand beaches and crystal waters, their spectacular weather all year round or the kindness of their people, and all of us dream of visiting the islands, specially in winter, to escape from cold weather, the flu and of course, the stress of the big city. But they had never told us about the risks we take when we visit the islands in winter, and today we would like to open your eyes so you can decide if it is a good idea to visit us in the coldest season of the year; take note:

- You may be the most hated person in your neighbourhood: and not only among your neighbours, also in your workplace, among your circle of friends or even on social networks, because coming back home suntanned in midwinter, while the others are white as snow, will win you envious people around and more than an enemy.

- You may spend more money than necessary: yes, on excess luggage, when you check in an extra suitcase containing your coat, high boots, roll neck jumpers and other winter clothes which, when you arrive in the islands, you’ll realize you didn’t need and you have paid for that in vain, instead of bringing some hand-luggage, where 3 bikinis, your flip-flops and some light dresses fit perfectly well.

- You may socialize less: Because in winter you won’t find the long queues of people from your city that you find in tourist destinations in high summer season.

- Your biological clock may be altered: because you will feel in your body the change from extreme cold weather to wonderful sunshine. In the same way, the change of schedules, when you switch off your alarm-clock and you don’t have to get up early in the morning or go early to bed, can make you feel you are in another planet.

- The relationship with your nutritionist and scales may be in trouble: This can also happen during the summer, but it is still a risk in winter, because the typical food from the Canary Islands, with its fresh fish and black pig, its potatoes with mojo, its almogrote and its typical sweets delight any palate, and you’ll be surprised when you come back home and don’t fit into your clothes. However, you will be suntanned and any outfit will suit you much better.

As the saying goes, everything lies in the eye of the beholder, and all risks can become good things, as well as every difficulty can become an opportunity. We are clear about it, and coming from the Canary Islands, we couldn’t see it otherwise. No matter how we look at it, we just find advantages in enjoying the Canary Islands in winter. And you?
