Mini bio
How it started.
Elena and Víctor launched Viajero Extranjero during Spain’s COVID-19 lockdown. Their first blog post, published on 6 May 2020, described a shared love of travel and the decision to finally put their photographs, advice and stories online.
Finding her format.
Elena’s interest in video editing helped the project grow through Instagram Reels. She turned down a stable job offer to work on it, while Víctor initially kept his programming job. In 2023, he joined her full time. They told Diario de Rivas that making travel their livelihood also changed how they travelled.
What fans follow.
Their work makes room for practical questions as well as memorable places: planning a Romania road trip, finding affordable restaurants in Rome, budgeting for theme parks and documenting safari encounters. Their Zambia project now includes Hot Springs Camp, with stays advertised for June to October 2027.
