For his latest journey, though, he explored Spain as a relative newcomer – and he kept a detailed record of his travels.Starting in Madrid and working his way north through the verdant gardens of Galicia, the Basque country and Barcelona, Monty then heads south to the rugged tropical climes of Mallorca, Alicante, Andalucia, Malaga, and Seville.
