It was brilliant to be MC and moderator at a really far thinking conference last week in Seville.

Throughout the episode, I shared some of my favourite stories from my years of travelling – such as the story of the beautiful village of Hallstatt with a population of 800 that gets 10,000 tourists a day dressed as Elsa from Frozen based on a myth!

Many people – including fellow TV programme makers who should know better – often think that in making my numerous travel shows abroad, I’m on one big jolly holiday.

A new survey shows that a third of people in Spain – a hugely popular tourist destination – feel that their local area has too many international visitors.

I pitched this series late last year and it’s incredible how timely it seems to be with demonstrations already by communities in hotspots like Tenerife.
