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.
About the site
Paths to great experiences in Spain
Spain by Hanne is a travel site dedicated to providing culture-seeking travellers 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 local communities.
I write travel inspiration about well-known places in Spain – also with new perspectives that encourage visitors to experience them in different ways. In addition, I focus on overlooked destinations throughout the country.
I hope you will enjoy reading along – and that you will find inspiration for your travels in Spain.
