Mealtimes in Spain are unlike anywhere else in Europe. Lunch at 3pm, dinner at 10pm, shops closed in the middle of the day... In this episode I explain why, as a Spanish woman who has lived abroad for years and finds it a little crazy when she comes back.

Summer in Spain is not just heat and beach. 

In this episode of De ida y vuelta, I talk about four things that make a Spanish summer unique: chiringuitos, the tupper de tortilla de patata at the beach, sentarse a la fresca in the evening, and why Madrid empties out every August.

A Spanish wedding is loud, warm, chaotic, and absolutely unforgettable.

In this episode of De ida y vuelta, I talk about everything that happens at a Spanish boda: the structure, the cóctel where we eat more than we can, the napkins flying through the air, the shouting, the coffee at 11pm, and the songs every Spanish person knows by heart.

La noche de San Juan is one of the most magical nights of the year in Spain. Bonfires, rituals, the sea… and traditions that change depending on where you are in the country.

In this first episode of De ida y vuelta, I talk about everything that happens on the night of the 23rd of June: what people do, what they say, and why it feels so special. I also share the story of my first San Juan night in Barcelona, a night I'll always remember.

In slow Spanish, designed for A1/A2 learners.
