Hi, I’m Brendan. Like the medieval explorer St. Brendan, I’ve always been drawn to discovering new horizons and cultures. From Irish roots and a Brazilian farm upbringing, my passion for food and travel began early. After exploring almost 60 countries and spending ten years in tech, I’ve settled in Spain, my true home. I’m excited to share my love for Spanish food and culture with you on fun, engaging tours through lesser‑known corners of Barcelona and Catalonia. Those ten years in customer‑facing tech and my deep local relationships now shape the personalized, insider experiences I create for my guests.
