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!

Madrid is a city packed with art, history, and more than 40 museums—but where do you even start? In this episode, we dive into Madrid’s famous “Golden Triangle of Art”: the Prado, Reina Sofía, and Thyssen-Bornemisza, three world-class museums all within walking distance. From Velázquez and Goya to Picasso’s Guernica and Van Gogh’s vibrant masterpieces, these collections span over 700 years of creativity. But the art adventure doesn’t stop there—we’ll also share some of Madrid’s hidden gems, like the Costume Museum, the Naval Museum, and even the quirky Ratón Pérez. Whether you’ve got one day or a whole week, we’ll give you the strategy, pro tips, and fun facts to make the most of Madrid’s museum scene.
