<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><em>The most-loved stories of 2022</em></strong></p>

<p class="p1" style="text-align: justify;">The common thread that links the articles you loved the most is undoubtedly a theme of <strong>authenticity</strong>. Whether that's genre-defying Iranian film star <a href="https://www.lofficielibiza.com/culture/golshifteh-farahani-the-girls-of-iran-are-already-victorious" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Golshifteh Farahani</strong> </a>sharing her exile in 2009 for shattering accepted religious and cultural taboos; Spanish writer <strong><a href="https://www.lofficielibiza.com/ibiza/a-tribute-to-ibiza-by-igor-garcia-peralta" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Igor Ram&iacute;rez Garc&iacute;a-Peralta</a> </strong>unravelling a deeply personal island love affair or fashion force <a href="https://www.lofficielibiza.com/portraits/annie-doble-portrait-ibiza" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Annie Doble</strong></a> unlocking her very own Dalt Vila, these are stories from the heart, told by the people who love Ibiza the most.&nbsp;</p>

<p class="p1" style="text-align: justify;">We've heard from Queen Bee herself <a href="https://www.lofficielibiza.com/portraits/how-serena-cook-became-the-ultimate-ibiza-insider" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Serena Cook</strong></a> about the twenty years she's invested in nurturing the authentic side of Ibiza. We've visited <a href="https://www.lofficielibiza.com/music/antonio-carbonaro-interview-circoloco" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>CircoLoco</strong></a> - arguably the planet's finest underground club night - and heard from founder <a href="https://www.instagram.com/circolocoibiza/?hl=en" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Antonio Carbonaro</strong></a> how it's a place reserved for for 'raw music lovers.' We've hit up the island's coolest and quirkiest beach bars with wander woman <a href="https://www.lofficielibiza.com/ibiza/the-inside-track-taryn-ross" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Taryn Ross</strong></a> and we've had personal <a href="https://www.lofficielibiza.com/ibiza/how-to-host-the-ultimate-ibiza-christmas-party" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>party tips galore</strong></a> from Ibiza's innovative, inspirational, international community of seekers, dreamers and magic makers.&nbsp;</p>

<p>In nine glorious months we have unpicked, unpacked and unravelled the stories that make Ibiza what it is: <a href="https://www.lofficielibiza.com/ibiza/hippies-hashish-and-a-moment-in-ibiza-s-hedonistic-history" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>a kaleidoscopic collage of history, tradition and culture</strong></a>; a surreal, shimmering speck in the Mediterranean sea and the place we've chosen to call home. Happy Christmas.&nbsp;</p>
