Teneriffa News thrives on its outstanding authors and the high standards it sets for published articles. As not all authors wish to be featured, you can see some members of our team below. The links take you to the respective author’s profile, where you will find further information about them and, in most cases, their contact details:
Johannes Bornewasser is the founder and editor of Teneriffa News. He is regarded as a recognised expert on the Canary Islands. Bornewasser travelled to Tenerife for the first time when he was just six months old. Since then, he has spent more and more time on the islands. He has been reporting on all the Canary Islands on Teneriffa News since 2011. Further information and contact details can be found in the author profile of Johannes Bornewasser.
Juan Martín is a freelance journalist at Teneriffa News. He is based in the Canary Islands and knows the area inside out. If you’re looking for Juan on social media, you won’t find him there. He loves the Canary Islands‘ natural beauty and can usually be found out and about in the countryside instead. Further information and contact details can be found in the author profile of Juan Martín.
Sylvia Kreye has lived on several of the Canary Islands for many years. She has worked for various newspapers. On Teneriffa News, the qualified singer and state-certified music teacher writes mainly about cultural topics, though other subjects also feature in her repertoire.

Photographers and editorial images
Our photos are taken by our in-house and freelance photographers. You can recognise them by the photo credit on the image itself. Our photo archive has grown significantly over the years. However, there are sometimes events that we need to report on quickly, before a photograph can be taken. In such cases, we draw on archive images and image databases. We work in particular with depositphotos.com. Teneriffa News expressly and completely refrains from using AI-generated images.
