Description:

In this episode of Living in Spain, I talk about the choking hazard that is a Spanish Tradition at New Year, drawing on real experiences of expat life in Andalusia after moving from the UK to Spain.

We cover:

  • How a Spanish New Year is celebrated, and why twelve grapes play an important part.

  • The cultural differences between New Year in Spain and the UK

  • What I miss about New Year in the UK and New Year in Spain

  • There are stories, mistakes, moments of joy, and the occasional flashback to my former life as a London radio producer — including an exploding bottle of champagne and a one thousand pound bounty for working over the millennium.
