In this episode of Spainfully Honest, Paul and Catherine talk New Year’s resolutions and what they really look like when you’re living in Spain.

From keeping fit and making the most of the outdoor lifestyle to tackling harder goals like quitting cigarettes, they discuss how Spanish routines and everyday life can support healthier habits without overcomplicating things.

As part of this topic, they also focus on something that often gets overlooked: making friends and building a new community in Spain.

As always, Paul and Catherine share their own resolutions alongside plenty of (very) honest chat, differing opinions and their familiar back-and-forth!
