About the Author

An award-winning journalist, author and travel blogger, Karen McCann has been living in Seville, Spain, since 2004. Wanderlust has taken her to more than thirty countries, including many developing or post-war nations where she and her husband volunteer as consultants to struggling microenterprises. A fourth-generation Californian, she lived in Cleveland, Ohio, with her husband for two decades before the couple moved to Seville "for a year" and decided to make it their home. She makes frequent visits to California because she feels America is something you have to stay in practice for, and she doesn't want to lose her touch.
