As the year draws to a close, I’m excited to share the final episode of English and Beyond for 2024. This festive episode is all about Christmas! It’s a nostalgic dive into personal traditions, some ancient history, and the quirks of celebrating the season across different cultures.

🎙 What’s Inside?

  • My reflections on chaotic childhood Christmases (spoiler: black bin bags instead of wrapping paper!)
  • The fascinating Roman origins of modern Christmas traditions.
  • How César and I navigate the cultural differences of Christmas in Spain versus the UK.
  • A heartfelt look at why the imperfections make the holidays so special.

🎁 A Small Christmas Request
