What is it like arriving in North Macedonia for the first time? In this episode of Pulse Radio, Alejandro from Spain and Patrick from Romania share their experiences of coming to Prilep through the European Solidarity Corps and discovering a new country from two different perspectives.
They talk about their journeys, first impressions, cultural differences, everyday life, nightlife and the things that surprised them after arriving. From тавче гравче and бурек to Spanish and Romanian traditions, they compare food, social habits and the cultures they grew up with.
The conversation also explores their experiences with volunteering abroad, stepping outside their comfort zones and living alongside people from different countries. Along the way, they reflect on how experiencing another culture can also help you understand your own — with plenty of personal stories, unexpected observations and a quick-fire round to finish.
