Travelling in Spain means moving between a dry, hot plateau and a greener coast, between dense city life and emptied inland villages. This podcast follows a single narrator settling in Spain for years at a time, learning each place by living in it rather than passing through. It treats travel as ordinary knowledge, built from repeated visits and local daily rhythms.
The route includes Madrid and the Pyrenees, but it also reaches Galicia's Atlantic estuaries, the Ebro valley, and Extremadura's slow towns. Each place is chosen because it connects to the next, so the movement between them makes geographical sense. The show does not pretend to cover all of Spain; it follows one person's inhabited route through its regions.
The episodes move with the seasons, returning to the same streets and paths as they change. Summer heat stays in the interior while winter damp gathers along the coasts, and a town seen in December is not the same town in June. Knowing a place properly takes that repetition and time.
Mateo Herrera lives in Spain and stays for two years, moving between cities, coastlines and smaller towns on a route that follows the seasons. Not a week-long visit — Mateo is there in every kind of weather, working out where to eat on an ordinary Tuesday, which train to take, what a festival actually feels like from the pavement.
A new episode arrives every day. Each one is short and specific: one neighbourhood, one journey, one meal, one museum worth the detour — with the practical detail that matters. What it costs. When it closes. Whether the queue is worth it. What to do when it rains. Every episode carries a full transcript and chapter markers.
