Fishbowls. Booze cruises. Sunrises nobody planned on seeing. Luke Atwood was there for every filthy minute of it — and he's finally telling the truth about San Antonio in the 90s.
The one that started it all. The first season, the first fishbowl, the first sunrise nobody planned on seeing.
Buy Ibiza '98Same island, one year wiser — wiser by absolutely nothing. The encore nobody saw coming.
Buy Ibiza '99"Nobody on that dancefloor cared what you did on Monday."
— Luke Atwood, Ibiza '98
Luke Atwood is the author of the Ibiza books — a series detailing his repping adventures and exploits while living in Ibiza during the 90s. Born and raised in the UK, he credits being a holiday rep with changing his life and making him who he is today.
Given the ridiculous situations he's been in, he still can't quite believe he's survived this long, and tries to treat every day as if it's his last. Never one to turn down a drink — or a joke at some deeply inappropriate moment — he longs for world peace, the return of Woolworths, and for Wetherspoons to go 24 hour.
Absolutely brilliant, brilliantly written, and brings back so many great memories of Ibiza in the 90s. Can't wait to read the next one.
I read Ibiza '98 last year and just read Ibiza '99 on my sun lounger — in Ibiza itself. You can't help but laugh at all the antics.
Funny and eye-opening — a real rep's take on the multi-faceted life of working abroad. The horrors and the hilarities, all of it.
