A very interesting discussion is going to be taking place in the forum over the next few weeks, all about travel writing on Spain, and how the reality shapes up in comparison. The discussion is forming part of a fascinating research project by Tita Beaven from The Open Universtiy.
Please do join in if you can. The first discussion thread is here:

Travel writing most definitely is an easier task when the writer has actually been to the city or resort being discussed. Imagine yourself recalling from memory versus actually enjoying a holiday Spain adventure and you can really see the necessity of fresh details.
