Great New English Sweet Shop in Spain


You really must visit this great new English sweet shop if you’re in the south east corner of Spain.

It’s the new venture of Wendy Brown formerly from Barnham in West Sussex UK, who is also a well known Shiatsu practitioner.

 

 

 

 

In her shop you’ll find the old style “sweets in a jar” with a wide range of delicious sweets and candies.

And if you’re in the mood, or have an ache or pain that needs attending to, talk to her nicely about a trial Shiatsu session, and I mean nicely, because she’s also a Karate instructor.

You’ll find her shop La Vida Dulce in the little village of Albox up in the hills behind Mojacar and and a worthwhile drive from Cartagena and Almeria.

Go on – spoil yourselves and say hello to Wendy for me.
