 Sam Lister

Before settling in the Costa de la Luz, Sam spent many years living in Girona and Madrid. Graduating from Leeds University with BA honours in Spanish and with a distinction in spoken Spanish, he decided to move to the Costa de la Luz. And so began his love affair with the region. He started off coaching surfing and teaching English while residing in the coastal town of Conil de la Frontera. He then worked for a provincial tourism magazine where he helped co-ordinate distribution and sales in a large part of the province. His job allowed him to develop a very in-depth knowledge of the province and its tourism industry. He gradually realised that many visitors to the area were not experiencing the true Cadiz. With this in mind, he decided to co-found Tailormade Andalucia.
