About :

Galicia, the land from which thousands of emigrants left for Venezuela, has received more than 40,000 Venezuelans in recent years. At first, the children and grandchildren of Galicians who lived in Venezuela arrived, but more and more Venezuelans who have no family ties to this region of Spain are arriving. Housing is much cheaper than in the big cities of Spain and in the villages you can get houses to rent for 250 and 300 euros. Venezuelans also praise the quality and price of the food and the more peaceful and relaxed way of life. In this new program of Venezuelans around the world, I traveled to the four Galician provinces (A Coruña, Lugo, Ourense and Pontevedra) to find out how the Venezuelans who have arrived in Galicia in recent years live and work. I started my trip in Lugo, where I met Ricardo González, a Venezuelan businessman who was a partner in the well-known El Fortín chain of stores, and who now buys abandoned villages on the banks of the Miño River for tourism and wine production. I continued my trip through Vigo, where I met three Venezuelan friends who introduced me to a trendy bakery in Vigo (Caracas Bakery Vigo) and also took me to see a rural house in Mondariz, a town famous for its high-quality thermal waters, run by a Venezuelan couple. In Vigo, I spoke with María Fernanda Ruiz, president of the association of Venezuelan retirees in Galicia, with whom I enjoyed the wonderful views of the city of Vigo, the most populated in Galicia. I also visited Moaña, opposite Vigo, where I spoke with Puri, a Venezuelan who was vice president of a bank and who now helps Venezuelans submit their CVs to find work in Galicia. From Vigo I travelled to Ourense to interview Elsy and other Venezuelans who work at the Instituto da Familia, which provides support to older migrants and returnees. And I took advantage of the trip to interview my own aunt, Lucía Abadín, who yearns for her youth on the beaches of Venezuela. And I have to confess that I couldn't hold back my tears when editing her participation in this video. From there I went to Coruña, where I visited the tower of Hercules don Diego Alonso, a Venezuelan who has lived in Galicia for many years, and I also spoke with Maricarmen González, who fondly remembers her childhood in Venezuela. There I discovered a bar called El Tequeño, right in the Plaza de María Pita, where they explained to me that tequeño is already a typical dish from Coruña! From there I travelled to Arzúa, a town where one of the best cheeses in Spain is made, and I discovered the Rincón family, father and son founders of Galmara, a factory of Venezuelan cheeses made with milk from happy cows in Galicia. And finally I visited Santiago, where I walked with the Minister of Emigration of the Galician government, Antonio Rodríguez Miranda, who explained to me the aid granted by the Galician government to returnees. And there I attended mass in the Cathedral of Santiago, where the relics of José Gregorio Hernández arrived. I hope you enjoy this new episode of Venezuelans around the world: “Venezuelans in Galicia” as much as I did.
