We are Tania and Gaetano, two expats who moved our families to Spain for new adventures. We both moved here from the US, Tania (originally from the UK) in 2020, with her husband and daughter from Northern Virginia, and Gaetano in 2023 with his two daughters from Los Angeles.
We all met in Valencia and got along incredibly well, but while we cracked each other up discussing our fun times adjusting to Spain, there were quite a few eye-rolls from our girls (tweens and teenagers anyone!). In an effort to give our daughters a little break we thought what the heck, let’s share our experiences with unsuspecting strangers instead. This podcast came to life and we hope you enjoy the pitfalls and joys of our experiences - we all have!

Get ready to laugh—and rethink everything you thought you knew about Spanish expressions, Part Dos! In this fun and cheeky episode of Ah Spain Podcast, we translate 20 hilarious idioms from Spain, like estar frito, mandar a freír espárragos, and the wonderfully visual partirse el culo. What do cats, asparagus, and coconuts have to do with everyday conversation in Spain? Luckily, we’re here to let you in on the secret. Perfect for Spanish learners, expats, and anyone who loves discovering funny idioms from other cultures, this episode proves that language doesn’t always make sense—and that’s exactly why we find living in Spain and learning Spanish is so much fun.
