From solid concrete and stone construction designed for durability and climate control, to the surprising lack of central heating or air conditioning in many homes, we dig into how Spanish architecture reflects the local environment.
We also talk about long hallways that seem to stretch forever, bars on windows that serve both security and airflow, and other quirks that might feel unusual at first. Whether you're planning a move or just curious about daily life in Spain, this episode is packed with insights and personal stories to help you understand—and embrace—what makes a Spanish home so distinctive.
