Spanish Village Life at 52: Border Collie, Chickens & Daily Spanish Homemade Cooking
Thank you for watching!
I’m LENO, a 52-year-old living in the countryside of Mallorca, Spain, with my Spanish husband, our son, and our Border Collie, Mao. In this vlog, I share our daily life in our 300-year-old home.
You’ll see 10-month-old Mao’s daily “destruction patrol” and playtimes, the chicks I raised from eggs, and my favorite homemade treats—like fluffy cinnamon rolls and the traditional Toledo specialty, “Carcamusas.”
