PODCAST

SpanSwede

I’m Juan, an Argentine-Spanish nerd who’s lived so long in the Nordics I sometimes feel more Swedish than the Swedes. In this podcast, I share stories from my life in Sweden, explore philosophy, culture, and identity, and reflect on whatever sparks my curiosity. Expect personal insights, detours to Spain, and thoughts on navigating two cultures while chasing meaning and a bit of calm.You can also listen to the episodes in Spanish here: https://feeds.acast.com/public/shows/spanswede-en-espaolConnect
