The way I want to see Spain
I've listened to every episode and now can't wait to visit all of the places mentioned. THIS is my idea of a great travel podcast. So well done. Intelligent, informative, and suited to my interests.
¡Excelente !
These podcasts are excellent for someone who wants to improve conversation Spanish Because, listening and understanding is difficult. Listening to Ben & Marina provide great exposure in that area. Understanding is much easier now.
Interesting and Enjoyable
I have family in Asturias, and visit when I can. Also, I lived in Madrid for a year back in the 80s when I went to Complutense. I love Spain and am always interested in learning more about the country. I was searching for topics on Spain when I came across this podcast. I am enjoying the different episodes, and I really like the perspectives of both Ben and Marina. Keep up the good work.
