The Best of Andalusia
This e-book was perfect. We learned so much about the places we visited which gave us a better appreciation and understanding for what we were visiting. Really recommend this book for anyone planning on going to Andalusia.
Value for Money!
I have always wanted to visit the villages of lesser-known Spain and learn more about their unique fiestas and traditions. This book goes into a lot of detail and it's a fun read!
I'm looking forward to reading more.
More than a travel guide.
It's so refreshing to learn more about a country than what most travel guide books offer. After reading the e-books Roman Spain and the Food of Spain, I'm excited to travel there next month. I'll definitely be adding a few more to my reading list.

When travelling, how many of us roll up at a site, admire it, take a selfie, and move on to the next stop on the itinerary? After all, our time is limited, and joining a tour group at every destination isn’t practical.
So, we skim through the basic information our bulky dog-eared guidebook offers to get a sense of what we’re looking at, but the most important and interesting information is often missing.
Then we go home with a phone full of snapshots and a general sense of the place, maybe even a few new recipes! One month later, and we’re struggling to recall when and why something was built or the name of that style of ceramics we admired so much at that market.

Hi! I’m a writer who spent 20 years living and working in Spain. My experience as a tour guide for groups of American teenagers took me to all the most touristic places in the country.

I have had the unique opportunity to meet people from all walks of life and study the history and traditions of every region in Spain.
Now, I am a travel writer who writes articles on Spain as well as other countries and cities around the world. My love of research and unusual facts helps make these e-books a fascinating and thorough read.

Objectives:
My aim is to share my knowledge and passion for this remarkable country. When tourists visit Spain, they barely scratch the surface. They breeze through on a whirlwind tour and go home with little more than a stack of photos and a (temporary) renewed interest in taking up the language again.
As our world becomes more homogenous, many languages and traditions are in danger of extinction. I feel it’s important to cultivate an appreciation and understanding of the world’s cultures and in particular, their past, as it has such a profound effect on the present. It allows for different perspectives and fosters tolerance.
