Becoming Spanish – 17 habits I’ve picked up since living in Spain

July 15, 2019

Giving everyone two kisses, mixing up Spanish and English, drinking coffee in glasses, wearing flip-flops indoors, being more stingy when tipping and buying everyone a drink when it's MY birthday. All things I never used to when I lived in the UK!

These are just a handful of habits I've picked up since living in Spain. In this episode I talk about these habits and many more that I've adopted after years of living in Spain. Some of them have come easily others, not so much! It's all part of becoming Spanish!

WHAT IS WHEN IN SPAIN?

The When in Spain show is a weekly podcast show, recorded in Madrid (and other parts of Spain) where l talk about my ‘warts and all’ observations and insights on life and culture on the Iberian peninsular.

I cast an eye on everyday life, people, places, politics, culture and history and attempt to give an honest opinion from a Brit who has a love-frustration relationship with Spain. I shall attempt to dispel or indeed confirm Spanish stereotypes through my ramblings and see if I can delve into the Spanish psyche.
