Hey, I’m Kristin — traveler, Spain insider, and the friend who’ll never send you somewhere mediocre.

I’ve spent 7 years living abroad, 16 years married to a Spaniard, and about a lifetime chasing after the kind of travel you actually feel — not just check off.

I don’t do "just wing it" travel anymore. I’ve lived the chaos. I’ve missed the trains. I’ve wandered into tourist traps and eaten one too many sad sandwiches. Now? I know better — and I’m here to hand you the shortcuts I wish I had.

Whether you’re hunting for rooftop bars in Madrid, wondering what to pack for Barcelona, or trying to figure out how the heck to survive Spanish mealtimes without starving — I’ve got you covered.

These days, when I’m not building epic Spain guides and designing travel planning tools, you’ll find me chasing my kids through farmers markets, growing too many hot peppers, or plotting my next tapas crawl.

Spain changed my life.
Let’s make it change your travels, too.
