Haya Blanco

Haya was born in Santiago de Compostela in 1984, and has been in love with all things Galician ever since. She studied Fine Arts at the University of Salamanca and Pontevedra, then returned to Galicia, where she earned her Master’s degree in Secondary Education at the University of Vigo. With her artistic soul and passion for adventure, Haya was a writer and illustrator of children’s books when she discovered that working as a travel guide is the perfect fit for her. When she’s not sharing her love of Spain with fellow adventurers, she continues her artistic work in her studio. Haya also works as a guide at Santiago de Compostela’s Contemporary Art Museum.
