This is the time of those who innovate. It is the year of hope, of the courageous; of those who have clear that they had to renew themselves or die. For us it is a year of gratitude, thoughtfulness and confirmation of what we always thought: that the digital media would never replace guide books and paper magazines, but rather be a complement to it, and the care with which we work our contents, the quality of our paper and the importance that we give to the appearance of our guide, all this is rewarded – year after year - with the confidence and loyalty that the hotels, restaurants and advertisers show to Lugares Divinos.

This is a year of shortages, of budget cuts, of "saving for tomorrow", but also a year when the courageous come out; when entrepreneurs earn or learn but never lose...

Our appreciation is for all those institutions, companies and people who, like us, didn't convey; that see the future as a challenge, not as a barrier, that trust in Lugares Divinos as a medium that can help to make them known and recognizable throughout the country.

And our deepest appreciation is for all our readers, those who - year on year - are seduced by our work, by the photographs that illustrate our texts, by our guide’s cover, by the smell of the pages. Those people who define our guidebook as "their Bible" of business and pleasure trips, who are influenced by our pieces of advice, who recognize a well-done job and the care of every detail.

For one and for all: thanks for another year.

Director of Lugares Divinos
