Your host Josh

Josh grew up in Portland, Oregon and moved to Spain in 2002 to improve his Spanish. He ended up moving there permanently because he fell in love with the country's language and culture. He translated and interpreted for a while before realizing his passion for food. Josh first started cooking in his childhood, exploring spices and different ingredients. He then learned about different ways of cooking in Spain and appreciated relying on quality of ingredients to make amazing flavors. He loved the shift from depending on spices to using time and careful preparation of the best, freshest ingredients to create incredible meals. Josh opened up a cooking studio a few years ago to teach travelers about the region's amazing ingredients and to communicate what he loves about the area's local history and food culture through a shared food experience.

"Josh was great! He was helpful, informative and really nice. He gave great tips on how to alter the recipe to preferences and the ingredients you have on hand, and tips on visiting Barcelona in general. This class was great, it gave us a recipe to add to our rotation when we want to make something awesome!"

"This was a great experience. I would come again, and highly recommend it to anyone who likes GOOD Paella and a great chef providing instructions!"

Tina 27 March 2021

"Josh’s class on Tapas and Sangria was fun and a wonderful way to “travel” to Barcelona from our kitchens. He made it a joy to prepare the dishes and we are so tired of cooking (right now). His 2 camera system was great! We were able to easily follow each step of his cooking. I had my doubts about Crema Catalana but his encouragement and tips along the way bolstered my confidence. It turned out delicious! Josh was very knowledgeable about Spain and you could tell his love for the food. He sprinkled in stories about Spain and the food as we cooked so we really learned a lot while having fun. We would definitely book another class with Josh."

"We had a fantastic experience with Josh! My mom, sister, and I couldn't get together for the holidays due to COVID, so we decided to do a remote cooking class together. It was FANTASTIC! Josh was an incredible host, and we had a blast. He was easy to follow and we learned a lot but had fun along the way. I never thought I would make seafood paella! Also loved making the sangria to drink during the class. Will definitely use the recipes again. I would love to take another class by Josh."

"We had scheduled a class with Josh for my dad's socially distant 70th birthday party. Josh and the Traveling Spoon team were very communicative beforehand. It was easy to share the recipe, Zoom link, and directions with our family and friends who were going to join the call. Josh was friendly, funny, and very knowledgeable. Though our group was a bit loud and many participants didn't know how to use 'mute,' Josh was still able to manage and lead us all through the recipe. Our group had a great time! My family and friends raved about the experience and recipe! We appreciated how Josh lead us through all the steps and checked on each person's dish through the camera to give advice and feedback. The meal was delicious!"

"Josh did a wonderful job teaching our group how to make Sangria and Paella. His teaching style was perfectly paced and informative. The recipes were fabulous! I can’t believe we made this in our own home. I hope Josh offers other classes because we will definitely be back for more"

Teddie 6 October 2020

"The class was great. Josh took time beforehand to understand our access to ingredients and kitchen set up prior to the class. He tweaked the menu to meet our needs. He was a great teacher and we all learned a lot. The tapas we made was wonderful and as a final touch, Josh shared a Spotify paly list of Spanish music that we could enjoy will eating our food and drinking sangria. Highly recommend!"

Matthew 28 September 2020

"Josh was awesome! He has a great recipe, he relates instructions very well, and the food was so delicious!!"

Audrey Tornblom 6 September 2020

"So delicious, so fun! We plan to take another one of Josh’s courses in the future. His knowledge went far beyond his impeccable chef skills: I feel like we got a mini history & cultural lesson, as well! We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Thanks, Josh!"
