• Covid-19.Coronavirus Spain today, breaking news

What does an unrepentant traveler do when told to park his suitcase for three months and confine himself at home?

Stop traveling and, in the case of almost a hundred journalists, share their experiences around the world in the book

Dreaming is traveling.

88 trips in confinement.

Behind this book published by the Notariado Foundation are 88 Spanish and foreign journalists who responded in April to the call of the

photographer Manuel Charlón:

"We have to take advantage of this time at home, tell me what traveling means for you."

And boy did they tell.

With all his responses, Charlón has created an entertaining 200-page work.

The reader will find -together with the

black and white photos

taken by this veteran photographer in recent years- the reflections of journalists such as

Mavi Doñate

, a correspondent for TVE in China;

Víctor Herranz, producer of the Onda Cero program Gente Viajera;

Asunción Luján, editor of National Geographic Spain;

the photographer

Chema Conesa

;

and

Ildefonso Olmedo

and Patricia Osuna, both journalists from EL MUNDO, among many others.

"I thought that offering images and texts about travel was a good way to

combat the general discouragement in the

face of such a difficult situation," says Charlón.

"So I decided to contact all those editors who have accompanied me in my thirty years traveling through the

five continents.

Each journalist has explored inside to narrate a

real or imagined trip.

I did not seek to build a book of photographs, but of feelings: a homage to the trade of telling stories from remote places by dreamers who decide to share their dreams ".

All of them have collaborated altruistically by transferring their copyright to the

fight against the coronavirus.

The income obtained will go to research on Covid-19 carried out by the

Carlos III Health Institute.

According to the president of the Notariado Foundation, José Ángel Martínez Sanchiz, "through this book of beautiful images and texts written during the quarantine, we want to make a

call for social solidarity

and put our grain of sand in the fight against the coronavirus."
