International Lifestyle MagazineThe International Lifestyle Magazine is published by CBL Media and was launched in February of 2007. The magazine started as a regional bi-lingual magazine distributed in the Costa Blanca Region of Spain from offices in Alicante. The magazine is primarily distributed electronically and was one of the first digital publications to include rich media content. During the financial crisis of 2009 the magazine offered free advertising to any relevant businesses using the phrase "we will get through this together" in their communication. The International Lifestyle Magazine states that it aims to promote positive lifestyle choices from around the globe. Many of the issues feature environmentally friendly expedition companies, environmental agencies, humanity projects, animal welfare and conservation organisations plus a number of private companies and individuals that adhere to the same principals. The magazine was founded by Julian Nicholson and Lynn Nicholson. Julian Nicholson is also a british born actor/producer with appearances in a number of british independent films. Lynn Nicholson came from a background in the retail motor industry having acheived "Head of Business" status at Lea Valley Audi , the largest Audi franchise in London.

The International Lifestyle Magazine achieved "finalist" status in the 2010 Digital Magazine of the Year Award (DMA). The competition was judged by a panel of experienced publishing executives.
