‘Errant in Iberia’ is Ben Curtis’s widely acclaimed book on moving to Spain and meeting Marina…

I did nothing but dream about moving to Spain until, one day, another minute in London threatened to push me over the edge!

Turning up in Madrid without a word of Spanish, I soon found a job, beautiful intercambios, amazing journeys to the depths of Spain, and wild fiestas.
 
Then I met Marina, bought a scarily run-down flat in Madrid’s wild Lavapies neighbourhood, and really took the cultural plunge.

Meals with endless Spanish in-laws where you can’t understand a thing? Residents’ meetings where not only your flat but your whole livelihood is at stake? Not to mention Medallion Manolo, the hunter-builder from hell…
 
If I can survive and still consider this the best move I ever made, couldn’t you?

‘Errant in Iberia’ tells the full story of what it’s like to decide that you have to make a huge change to your life, and how wonderfully things can turn out as a result. It’s a complete picture of Spain as it enters the 21st Century, and is packed with travels to some of Spain’s most intriguing destinations.

But most of all, it’s an inspirational story about how you can move to a new country with nothing, and really end up living your dream. Remember, if I can do it, couldn’t you?

Reviews from readers of ‘Errant in Iberia’:

 
“I loved this book – I think the author did a great job describing the issues expats deal with and how wonderful life in Spain really is – I downloaded his podcasts on itunes as well and they are really cool. Great book – I highly recommend it” – Review posted on Amazon.com

“Errant in Iberia vividly describes the settings the author finds himself in when first exploring Spain, the capital city in particular, after deciding to make a life for himself there.

As if this travel-writing was not enough, Ben explains his adapting to the culture in which he has immersed himself and how this immersion led to his current circumstances and marriage to his Spanish wife.

I am quite sure this would appeal to a wide range of people, from those who often read travel books, to those who have an interest in Spain, and those who dream and taking the drastic step of moving to a foreign country to change the direction of their lives. I enjoyed it immensely.” – Review posted on Amazon.com
