BEHIND THE TRAVEL SITE
Hanne Olsen
I am a travel journalist specializing in Spain. I often work and live in Spain, which I consider my second home.
As a cultural traveler, my curiosity drives me to continually seek out and convey the many stories that help define Spain, its people, and their culture.
In addition to running Spain by Hanne, I also contribute travel articles and photos to Politiken and other Danish media.
Received the Danish Media Award at the Spain Talks Awards 2025, organized by Turespaña, for a travel feature on Benidorm focusing on sustainable tourism.

Spain by Hanne is a travel site designed to provide culture-seeking travelers with informative and thought-provoking travel inspiration for Spain.
I focus on telling stories that offer both perspective and insight, as well as a deeper understanding of places, culture, art, and people.
The aim is to strengthen the connection to Spanish culture and create relationships with the locals.
I write about well-known places in Spain – also with new perspectives that encourage experiencing them in different ways. Additionally, I focus on overlooked places in the country.
I hope you’ll enjoy reading along – and find inspiration for your travels in Spain.
