Moon Europe Travel Guide

A Colorado native based in southern New Jersey, Beebe Bahrami extends her idea of home on regular semi-nomadic treks, visits, explorations, and excavations in southwestern France and northern Spain. Having walked the Camino de Santiago now too many times to count, she has also lived on different stretches of the trail. She has survived pigeon, boar, and rabbit hunting season in the Pyrenees, detoured with sheepherders in Rioja, pressed grapes in León, and studied herbs and rituals with a druid in Galicia.

Beebe is the author of two travel memoirs, Café Oc: A Nomad's Tales of Magic, Mystery, and Finding Home in the Dordogne of Southwestern France, and Café Neandertal: Excavating the Past in One of Europe's Most Ancient Places. In addition to Moon Camino de Santiago, she has penned several travel guides, including The Spiritual Traveler Spain: A Guide to Sacred Sites and Pilgrim Routes, and Historic Walking Guides Madrid. Her work also appears in Wine Enthusiast, The Bark, and Archaeology, among others. To read her work, visit www.beebebahrami.weebly.com.

When Beebe is not on the trail or writing, she is studying trekking gear catalogs, pouring over obscure cookbooks, trying to master the subjunctive in French and Spanish, doing yoga, and surfing her trusty 7'6" surfboard while dreaming of her next Camino.

"Moon handbooks are always a pleasure to read. The writing is crisp, the research impressive, and the recommendations practical and down to earth."
Chicago Tribune
"Sustainable travel, authentic slow tourism and support of local infrastructure are pillars of [Moon's] ethos: if that aligns with you as a curious traveller, their guides are a must-buy."
Italia! Magazine
“The books are more easily readable than other guides. The main attractions are also marked with a special icon and sidebars and boxes highlight special information, making the Moon handbooks one of the most user-friendly guides in terms of visual appeal and organization…the quality is uniformly excellent."
Transitions Abroad
"Far from narrow minded, each Moon travel guide gives itinerary options for a variety of travelers’ budgets—from frugal to lavish. They make books catering to those who love the outdoors, those who have limited time, those staying exclusively in cities and those who’ve fully committed to living abroad. In all, they have hundreds of titles, ranging Bermuda to Budapest, that’ll teach you to embrace a new culture."
Gear Patrol, “The Best Travel Guidebooks for Every Journey”
"Moon handbooks have become known as well-written and exceptionally informative guides."
The New York Times
"Moon guides are perfect for the relaxed road tripper or outdoor explorer."
No Small Plan
"Moon handbooks are known for cannily combining logistical information with cultural background of a country or state."
Los Angeles Times

Beebe Bahrami

About the Author

For over three decades Colorado native, writer, anthropologist, and pilgrim Beebe Bahrami has explored, visited, researched, written about, and lived on numerous routes of the Camino de Santiago in France, Spain, and Portugal, logging well over 10,000 miles, and counting. As a researcher and writer, she discovered long ago that exploring a place at the pace of feet was one of the best tools for uncovering the deeper stories therein, slowing down to talk to locals working the land, to climb to an archaeological site just around the bend, to witness timid wildlife, to sit and listen to villagers share life stories, to discover a remote chapel carved with local extra-religious folkloric images, and to fold into the local cadences of life and land. She has survived pigeon, boar, and rabbit hunting season in the Pyrenees, detoured with sheepherders in Rioja, attended sung prayer for a week with monks in León, tracked down petroglyphs, dolmens, and Iron Age castro sites from Navarra to Galicia, and throughout explored the Caminos deepest layers, from prehistory (including Neandertals!) to the Middle Ages to the present.

Many of Beebe’s books, article, and essays center on the Camino de Santiago and the legacy, cultures, and lands through which it threads, such as her literary travel memoirs, The Way of the Wild Goose, Café Oc, and Café Neandertal, and this comprehensive guidebook, Moon Camino de Santiago. Her writing also appears in BBC Travel, Wine Enthusiast, Archaeology, the Pennsylvania Gazette, Perceptive Travel, Michelin Green Guides, National Geographic books, and The Bark, among other publications.
