Imperfection at Work
Real experiences. Practical ideas. No perfection required.
Welcome to Imperfection at Work
This is my personal space for sharing the places we discover, the things we enjoy, and the little adventures that make everyday life interesting.
From exploring the Costa Blanca and travelling beyond, to family activities, creative ideas and the occasional story from real life, this is a collection of things I genuinely enjoy sharing.
There is no perfect plan and no perfectly curated life here — just real experiences, personal recommendations and a little bit of everything that makes life worth exploring.

Spain Through Our Eyes
Spain has become much more than a holiday destination for us. From the sunny Costa Blanca and its beaches, markets and little towns to the many places still waiting to be discovered, there is always something new to explore. On this site, I share some of the places we have visited, things we have enjoyed and experiences that made us want to come back for more. Whether you are planning a trip or simply curious about life in Spain, I hope you will find a little inspiration here.

Mud Baths in San Pedro del Pinatar
Looking for a different kind of day out? The mud baths of San Pedro del Pinatar make for a fun and unusual experience – and a great little trip from the Costa Blanca.
A Day Trip to Orihuela
Just a short trip inland, Orihuela offers a completely different side of the region. Come along for a little exploration beyond the coast and discover what makes this historic town worth a visit.
Eating Out in Orihuela Costa
From casual lunches to dinner by the sea, there are plenty of places to enjoy good food around Orihuela Costa. Here I share some of the restaurants and cafés we have tried and would happily visit again.
Casa Larimar - Your Home Away From Home
Some places are simply more than somewhere to sleep at the end of the day. Casa Larimar is our little home away from home in Cabo Roig, created to be a place where you can slow down, enjoy the sunshine and feel comfortable from the moment you arrive. Whether you are looking for lazy days by the pool, afternoons at the beach or a base from which to explore the Costa Blanca, we hope it gives you the freedom to enjoy your holiday at your own pace.
Here are some details:
70m² apartment for up to 5 guests in Cabo Roig, walking distance (~450m) to the beach, 3 pools with non-swimmer area, secured property, 2 bedrooms, fully equipped, modern kitchen, smart TV, balcony, air conditioning system (warm/cold), ceiling fans, super fast WiFi, private parking and much more...
Only 50km from Alicante Airport
We (my wife and me) stayed for four months (1 December to 31 march) this winter [23/24]. The apartment is very well renovated and in an excellent condition with all the modern facilities that you would expect from a top property. Location vies it is perfect, close to the beach, close to the Cabo Roig strip and close to the shopping centre with very nice beach walks around the corner 😊 I’m a keen golfer and the range of course close by is very good. So, my wife and I can highly recommend this property and the excellent host Larissa 😊 Thanks for the stay.
