🎙️ Episode 226: Próxima parada: Bélgica 🇧🇪 (Next Stop: Belgium!)

In this episode of ¡Cuéntame!, Marta continues sharing her European adventures! After six wonderful days in Paris, her journey takes her to Belgium, where she explores the vibrant city of Brussels, admires the magnificent Grand-Place, and visits the charming canals of Bruges.

Of course, no trip to Belgium would be complete without tasting the delicious Belgian waffles! 🧇

But the most meaningful part of her visit is reconnecting with Charlotte, her former exchange student, and finally meeting Charlotte's family in their hometown of Soignies. It's a beautiful reminder that the most memorable travel experiences are often about the people we meet along the way. ❤️

Join Marta for another episode filled with travel, culture, and comprehensible Spanish!

Today we talk about a recent series of protests that resulted in the rescue of over 1,500 beagles. But, before we begin today’s episode, I want to give a small reminder that this story may be emotional for many listeners. It is a story that started a lot of conversations, not only in Wisconsin, but across the country.

Today we are talking about animals, protests, and a situation that made many people ask difficult questions. You may have already heard a little bit about it online or in the news… but maybe not the whole story.

As always, listen carefully and form your own opinion! Transcript here!
