Now and then we do some, as we call it, home travel. During this day we learn about a country: listen to music, watch YouTube-videos and eat typically foods.
We learn a lot (both kids & adults) about the world during these days.☺️
Today we are visiting Spain. So far we have made paella and churros ( first time ever for both) while listening to flamenco music.🥘 💃
Do you have any facts we should learn about this country? 🇪🇸 #homeTravel #spain

@annasara Cute! If a Valencian glares at your dish, tell them it's a “hacked” paella, that way maybe they won’t collapse. Authentic paella is a (comically) controversial topic, turned into memes.

@annasara Trying to find positive facts is... not easy! 😅
Let's say Spain is more diverse and decentralized than, say, France. It's divided in 16?? autonomous communities (some even with their own co-official languages), which in general display well developed culture traits (this goes way back in history, of course). So much that the national identity is often contested and controversial, especially in some regions, and this has more or less dominated national politics for a long, long time.

@tagomago during my search for information about Spain I understood that Paella is a controversial topic. 😁 "Hacked" paella sounds good!

@annasara Another interesting fact: most of the current territory of Spain (and Portugal) was ruled by successive Muslim invaders during EIGHT hundred years in the Middle Ages. During that time it was called “Al-Andalus” (note the naming trace in today’s Andalusia).
