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!

Bats, football, and royal legends — oh my! In this Poco a Poco episode, we flutter through Valencia’s skies to uncover why bats are beloved symbols, not spooky creatures. From King Jaume I’s lucky omen to Valencia CF’s epic logo feud with Batman (sorry, Gotham), these winged wonders have quite the backstory. We’ll also peek at the real bats that call the city and countryside home — the unsung heroes keeping mosquitoes at bay. It might be Halloween season, but in Valencia, bats are all about good fortune, not fright.
