It snows in Madrid region EVERY YEAR, however not over the city, because of the heat 3.75 million people homes expel into the atmosphere. You just need to drive 30 miles to the mountain range that surrounds the city, to find up to 6 feet snow depths. We even have ski resorts over there! However it used to snow in the capital one or two days per year if the weather was cold and moisty enough. Global warming changed that trend. Remember that US East coast gets cold currents from North Pole, while Europe gets warm ones from Mexico Gulf stream.
That's not completely correct. We have the Jet Stream bringing cold too, but it's warmer because it goes through the Atlantic Ocean. USA gets it colder because it goes through a giant landmass before getting to them.
@@SuzkoSuge I didn't mean "jet" air streams, but ocean currents. Labrador current which comes from Newfoundland keeps northern states coasts cold, AFAIK.
Well, don't worry, they way the planet is warming one thing we know for sure is that the Gulf Stream will change course as Greenland melts, and then Europe will become about 7º colder on average. Paradoxically, one of the consequences of global warming is that it is going to be much cold around here.
Cava DOES qualify as champagne, because it IS. However, Champagne is a registered trade mark from the french region of Champagne, so according to the European laws, we cannot use it over here. The white grapes we use for our Cava wines are almost the same: Chardonnay mainly, which originates from Burgundy. There are varieties of Chardonnay from California to New Zealand, all around the world, and all sparkling white wines are made with them, even though they're not from the Champagne region.
More than trademark protection, it is a designation of origin, in the same way that a Rioja is not a Ribera del Duero even if they use the same type of grape/grapes.
La palabra Navidad proviene de Natividad (nacimiento) por lo que es obvio que se celebre el nacimiento de Jesús. Decir "Navidad" e incluir a religiones que no celebran el nacimiento de Jesús es... absurdo. No es inclusividad, es sólo lógica. Tan sólo he querido aclararlo, no es una crítica. Con esto me refiero a la Navidad en España como país Católico, no al espíritu navideño de compartir y celebrar con quien no sea cristiano.
Más absurdo es la moda de llamarlo "Adviento", que no deja de significar advenimiento o venida (de Jesucristo) Como si hubiera alguna diferencia entre decir "nace Jesús" o "llega Jesús"
@@txipiron Ya, y en lenguas como en aragonés diciembre se dice abiento, pero el término más frecuente durante décadas ha sido Navidad, no recuerdo anuncios, ni tarjetas deseando ¡Feliz Adviento! a nadie. Ahora, sí.
In Spain we've got a brand of eggnog called "Ponche Caballero". You can find it at any supermarket but it conteins alcohol. Greetings from Gran Canaria, Canary Islands, Spain. Feliz Navidad. 🎄🎁
The province of Madrid is full of snow, in fact, films such as Doctor Zhivago or the Battle of the Bulge, set in the Russian and German winter, were filmed in Madrid. Since the Middle Ages, and given the choice, people preferred to settle and live in the part where there's no snow, but if you need it, you have some ski resorts just forty minutes away.
I cannot understand how avoiding to say Merry Christmas is inclusive. To me it sounds pathetically politically correct, instead of being free to celebrate Christmas without ideological BS and say things for its name. Merry Christmas!! 🎄
You are wrong. There's a lot of snow and eggnog in Valdenalgas all the year round. By the way, don't get angry, "inocente". This is a joke in advance on account of April Fool's Day, which we celebrate on the 28th of December in Spain.
If you want to see snow and play with it, I recommend you to go to the northen mountains of Madrid. There are like 1 hour away by car and it tends to be very snowey there. You can also go by train or bus.
1. Yeah, we don't have that, but we have our own candy. The main two I can think of now are turrón and polvorones, but 100% there are more. 2. Only in the mountains (which are all over the country really). But yes, the main turistic regions don't have snow. 3. We may have a tree that's been used for like 20 years now, a Belén that's been in the family forever and that's about it. Cities do use a lot of money like you say. 4. Well, christian country and christian festivity, what do you expect? It seems to be changing now but I don't really think that is really wanted by the main population. It's "Feliz Navidad y próspero Año Nuevo" here. 5. I do think this links to point 3, cities celebrate Navidad as a whole, so there comes the markets!
"They don't have snow" People from Galicia, Asturias, Castilla y León, Cantabria, Euskadi, Navarra, Aragón, Catalunya, Andalucía, Tenerife and Mallorca: "YES, WE HAVE IT" 🗿
Sí claro, porque toda la gente de todas esas regiones pisa nieve todos los años jajajja. La nieve en Pensilvania no es comparable a nada que tengamos aquí. Además Danielle está hablando de Madrid ciudad y no sabe que en la comunidad de madrid nieva todos los años a media hora en coche de la ciudad y en la sierra de madrid hay estaciones de esquí. En la ciudad nieva cada dos o tres años, pero dura nada, de uno a tres días. Ya lo descubrirá.
Bueno, los de la costa norte no vemos la nieve nunca. En el interior de esas regiones sí, sobre todo en la montaña, claro, pero en la costa si nieva sale en el telediario.
Soy de un pueblo en el que la nieve viene todos los años, y normalmente en dos tandas. Es más, este año ya ha nevado. Aun así la chica tiene razón, eso es lo raro en este país. Sólo nieva en las partes de alta montaña. En muchas ciudades estadounidenses, por contraparte, es muy normal que nieve mucho, porque allí hace más frío y, si están en zonas húmedas, pues está servido el pastel.
Regarding traditions you should experience the Rio de la Plata ones, with Christmas day at the beach or Christmas Eve parties until sunrise (some in the street with the neighbors, some at your family's).
We don't like eggnog. We prefer hot chocolate with churros, cava, jamón ibérico, chorizo ibérico, salchichón ibérico, seafood, kings roscón, mantecados, polvorones, turrones.....
Well, I think that in Florida there is little snow... Don't you know anyone who has gone out to buy decorations? You must be a hermit or something similar. It is a Christian holiday, I don't remember that in Ramadan Christians or Jews are taken into consideration, it doesn't offend me, everyone has their own celebrations and nobody should feel offended. The Christmas message is universal, love one another (as I have loved you).
Reading the comments the Spanish might soon start a petition to kick you out of Spain for suggesting that Madrid doesn't get snow! Looks like you hit a nerve there! lol
In Madrid, the center-right party has been governing the region for the past 20 years, so you won't see multicultural Christmas lights there. In contrast, the left holds more political influence in Barcelona, and as a result, they have inclusive winter lights, particularly in El Raval-a neighborhood where the Islamic community makes up about half of the population. That said, Madrid is an old city full of churches, and the remnants of the Reconquista still linger in our collective subconscious. I think having Islamic decorations in public spaces would feel uncomfortable....
I live in Madrid (I was born in San Sebastián, PV) and I haven't try eggnog ever. I first became aware of its existence I think I was reading this book called Party like a president that has the recipe of every president's favourite cocktail, and it was one guy's favourite drink, and he was from the XIXth century, and the book was like "this guy was so basic that his drink of choice was eggnog". But I've always wanted to try it. Anyway, thanks for the video and your kind words to the spanish people, you're a very articulate young woman and I bet you'll learn a lot of fascinating and eye opening things while being abroad. Feliz navidad.

@@txipiron I know, but I didn't find the appropiate translation for "Denominación de origen" at first.
It is. We can tell the true stuff no matter the name because it has a star printed on the corck or the plastic cap.
Realizing that half the planet celebrates Xmas at summertime will blow her head off.

The day we will feel the need of renaming "Christmas" here in Spain I'd know we'll be over.
TBH, Spain is catholic in tradition but mostly agnostic in reality. Most people just go along with it.

Mostly filmed on La Mancha, but yes, I was living on Villalba and there is a lot of snow, but on Madrid city… not every year
In Soria... The Urals mountains were Urbión and Moncayo

Something to learn: Ask your friends here in Spain to teach you how to say "Pamplona" with a polvorón in your mouth. And make a short of it.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Tanta maldad 🤣
Feliz Navidad y próspero año nuevo!
A lot of people do decorate their home for Christmas, with a tree, a Belén and so on.
Belén I've seen but nothing like to the extent of decorating the outside like when I was in King of Prussia in PA

Snow doesn't qualify as a tradition. It is a weather phenomenon

Decoration in homes is something you do when you have children. Very few people can afford children in Spain nowadays
deberías ir a Sierra Nevada, Granada, allí hay nieve ;)
You can make your own eggnog with a warm red wine and a beaten egg! Also you can drink "licor de crema"
