A British travel writer & photographer based on the Gower peninsula in South Wales (UK) – in search of meaningful experiences, local traditions, culture and gastronomy.

Food, Photography, Travel & Culture

Hi, I'm Ben Holbrook and 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 beauty in the world, in the overlooked and everyday, celebrating the simple pleasures 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..

Whether you want to work with me or simply want to say hello, please feel free to email at: Ben @ DriftwoodJournals.com
