Life & Travel from Spain and Beyond

Hola, I'm Ben Holbrook and I set up this blog after moving to Barcelona and falling head over heels in love with the food, people and culture of Spain.

I'm passionate about meaningful and responsible travel, about digging deeper into local cultures and traditional cuisines.

Through my writing and photography (and sometimes video), I share my travel stories and the stories of others. Always seeking out beauty in the world, in the overlooked and everyday, celebrating the joys of this thing we call 'life'.

As a freelance travel writer and photographer, I have also contributed to global travel publications like National Geographic, Telegraph Travel, Ryanair, easyJet, Avis, Barcelona.com, Miniguide BCN and Elsewhere. I also authored Barcelona Precincts for Hardie Grant and the Barcelona edition of The HUNT Guides..
