PODCAST

SpanSwede

Juan, an Argentine/Spanish expat living in the cold north, greets you from Sweden. From this latitude, I share personal experiences and explore interesting topics. The focus is often on Sweden, but not always. Sometimes I take detours into philosophy and other subjects I enjoy. Apart from having fun, my biggest aspiration with this podcast is that it might inspire you or help you in some way. Since I love learning languages, I"ve also translated some episodes into Italian. Thanks for your patience

In this episode, I drift through the vastness of the universe: stars, galaxies, unanswered questions, and the improbable miracle of life on Earth. Inspired by Carl Sagan’s 1980 bookCosmos, I reflect on our deep connection to the universe and humanity’s timeless urge to understand it. A journey of wonder, science, and belonging. As a bonus at the end, I include the voice of Carl Sagan himself.#Cosmos #CarlSagan #Universe #Astronomy #Life #Science #Reflection #PodcastIf you’d like to support this

#34 - Il giorno in cui il Giappone mi ha conquistato...

SpanSwede ·

2025/10/04

Quando ero bambino, il Giappone non smetteva mai di sorprendermi e affascinarmi. Negli anni ’80, tra videogiochi, anime e curiosità per una cultura così diversa dalla mia, nacque un sogno che ancora oggi porto con me: conoscere davvero quel Paese. In questo episodio racconto come iniziò la mia passione per il Giappone, dalle prime esperienze con la Game Boy fino al desiderio, ancora vivo, di viaggiare da Okinawa a Hokkaido.#Giappone #Podcast #StoriePersonali #Videogiochi #Anime #CulturaGiapponese
