Hablar de tradiciones navideñas venezolanas es bastante emocionante para los que nacimos en la tierra de Bolívar, y todo esto porque se conjugan un conjunto de símbolos cargados de significados, uno de ellos es sin duda, la comida que se consume, ejemplo de esto: la hallaca. El plato emblemático de la tradición decembrina venezolana; una masa de harina de maíz bien condimentada rellena de sabor y vegetales que se envuelve en una hoja de plátano, que se amarra y se hierve para cocinarse. Esta, representa, además de mucho esfuerzo, la unión familiar, el estar reunidos para llevar a cabo todo el proceso. Por otro lado, otro aspecto bastante llamativo de esta época es que hoy en día por la situación del país, la ola migratoria se ha traducido en un cúmulo de emociones que saltan a la luz en cada venezolano, en épocas donde tradicionalmente se estaría en familia, como diciembre. Por eso el siguiente cuento relata un poco todo lo explicado y me baso para eso en una historia real. 🔴 Artículo publicado en: https://www.espanolcontodo.com/2024/12/tradiciones-navidenas-venezolanas-hallacas.html 🔴 Todos los episodios gratuitos del Podcast Español Con Todo: https://www.espanolcontodo.com/p/podcast-espanol-con-todo.html 🔴 Clases de español para extranjeros (ELE) con Luddey Florez en Italki: https://www.italki.com/teacher/3089491 🔴 Materiales exclusivos de cultura, história y curiosidades de Latinoamérica: https://espanolcontodo.gumroad.com/ 🔴 BookCast 2 - Cultura: https://espanolcontodo.gumroad.com/l/bookcast-2-cultura Español Con Todo, presentado por la psicóloga y profesora de español como lengua extranjera, Luddey Florez. ✅ MÚSICA DE FONDO ✅ Real Estate Explainer Corporate - Notas de Sucesso Home and Real-Estate Corporate - Notas de Sucesso Corporate Aspirational Music (Business Presentation) - Notas de Sucesso Business For Life (Optimistic Background) - Notas de Sucesso Good Sales (Corporate, Business) - Notas de Sucesso Autumn Background (Ambient, Motivational) - Notas de Sucesso Uplifting Motivational Corporate - Notas de Sucesso Tropical Background (Summer Corporate) - Notas de Sucesso ✅ LICENCIA DE FUENTES ✅ ► Pond5 https://www.pond5.com/pt/artist/NotasDeSucesso?ref=NotasDeSucesso

We couldn't end EHR without answering a few important questions, like: How did idiots like us stumble into podcasting success? What happens now? What happens to the website? And, of course, which Wheel of Time character should have a gun?   EHR Substack

On this week's episode, the girls sit down with author, Jewel E Ann and discuss her newest release, From Air. From Air follows Jaime, a traveling nurse, as she moves from Miami to Montana into a house of firefighters and sparks fly with roommate Calvin Fitzgerald. She can't help but fixate on Calvin, a grumpy, elusive, smoke jumper ten years her senior. She makes playfully tormenting him her pet project, trying to get him to open up. It turns out he gives as good as he gets and the banter between these two had us laughing out loud. The characters are incredibly complex and although there is so much humor there is also a deeper and sadder storyline that is woven throughout the book. Fitzie&James4ever
