Rowan Preston
Operations Director

From his early roots in Ireland, to travelling the world in search of adventure; food and gastronomy were never far away from Rowan’s heart or mind. Enthusiastic and creatively inspired by many happy meals (not of the fast food variety) eaten at both street food stalls and Michelin Starred restaurants, he always loved being in the kitchen.

After a successful career in IT that saw him travel to all corners of the world , he finally decided it was time to settle down in his 2nd home of Barcelona.

You’ll now find Rowan somewhere in Barcelona – out in the streets meeting our friendly local suppliers and restaurants, or in the office organising tours and creating new exciting experiences for clients.

Marwa Preston
Founder &  CEO

As a traveler, a foodie, a Barcelona lover and a cultural enthusiast Marwa set up this company to share her passions of the city, its food & culture with visitors and travelers. An engineer by trade, she spent 11 years in the corporate world in roles ranging from sales to business development and marketing between big cities like Toronto & London. Yearning for more, she decided to quit the corporate world and move to Barcelona, her favorite city in the world.

She founded Wanderbeak – where we ‘wander’ and with our ‘beaks’ we peck – focusing on boutique food experiences in the city. Today, Marwa wears many hats, from driving the business development and marketing of Wanderbeak to running the day-to-day operations as well as leading food tours around the city.
