Ibiza is different. A Mediterranean island that has preserved the dream of a better world from hippie days. Elke Clörs explores facets of the third biggest Balearic Island that regular tourists seldom experience. This is more than an homage to the island: Elke Clörs has written a love letter to the people, places, homes, and delicious dishes of Ibiza.

A trip across the island reveals unique and exotic living spaces. Their owners are kind, cordial, and open people whom you can meet at Ibiza´s popular hippie markets, at the historic city center of Dalt Vila, or in the South of the island near Es Vedra.

They all share a passion for healthy eating that´s simple and affordable. Most of the ingredients are from their own gardens, straight from Mother Nature. Here you´ll find more than 70 recipes that break with convention and deliver all kinds of Mediterranean delights - that celebrate love, peace, and the fullness of life with every bite. Elke Clörs helps you bring to life the island´s culinary dreams in your own kitchen.
