España es un país con diferentes lugares por descubrir. En el episodio de hoy hablo con Borja, de borjaprofe.com de una de ellas, su lugar de origen, el País Vasco. 

Además de lugares que tienes que visitar y cosas a tener en cuenta cuando visitas esta región también hablamos de como vemos a los vascos el resto de españoles, es decir los estereotipos que tenemos sobre ellos y qué hay de verdad en esos estereotipos.

Después de escuchar el episodio, pásate por mi Instagram y cuéntame qué te ha parecido el episodio y si has visitado el País Vasco, o planeas hacerlo en un futuro.
