Korespa: discover the Spanish-speaking world<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Korespa is a content magazine for anyone curious about the Spanish-speaking world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A place to discover its countries, cultures, history, food, music, people, traditions, places, customs, expressions, celebrations, landscapes and all those small and significant things that help shape its identity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because speaking Spanish means sharing a language, but it also means discovering an extraordinary variety of ways of living, thinking, celebrating, cooking, creating, telling stories and understanding the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A journey through the Spanish-speaking world<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

With Korespa, you can travel without packing a suitcase.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From Spain to Mexico, Argentina, Colombia, Peru, Chile, Cuba, the Dominican Republic and the many other countries and communities where Spanish is part of everyday life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Every place has its own story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Its own flavours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Its own music.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Its own landscapes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Its own words.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Its own people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Its own traditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And its own way of living and experiencing the Spanish language.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Korespa aims to bring all these stories together in one place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Culture, history and everyday life<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Here you will find a wide range of content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You may read about major historical events or discover small local curiosities; explore world-famous monuments or places that many travellers never notice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can discover traditional recipes, popular dishes, markets, restaurants and products that form part of the culinary culture of different regions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We also explore music, cinema, literature, art, architecture, sport, nature, travel, historical and contemporary figures, popular expressions, sayings, legends, celebrations and traditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From Spanish tapas to Argentine mate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From Mexico\u2019s Day of the Dead to the Carnival of Barranquilla.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From flamenco to salsa, tango, bolero and vallenato, as well as new generations of artists reshaping music in Spanish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From the Andes to the Caribbean.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From small villages to some of the world\u2019s great cities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There will always be something new to discover.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

More than articles<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Korespa is not intended to be simply a collection of written articles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We want you to be able to see, listen, read and discover<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That is why our content may combine articles, photography, videos, music and other resources that help bring each subject to life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You might listen to a song while discovering the story behind it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Watch a video about a tradition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Learn about a recipe and then try making it yourself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Discover the meaning of an expression you have never heard before.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Or simply enjoy an unexpected story about a place on the other side of the Atlantic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Where available, videos may also allow you to use subtitles or reduce the playback speed so you can listen to Spanish more easily.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because discovering a culture can also be a wonderful way to discover a language.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One language, many cultures<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

More than twenty countries share Spanish as an official language, but no two of them speak, cook, celebrate or live in exactly the same way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That diversity is one of the greatest strengths of the Spanish-speaking world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We share words, histories and cultural connections, while thousands of differences make every country, region, city and community unique.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The same word can mean something completely different depending on where you are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A recipe can change when you cross a border.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A celebration may carry centuries of history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And a song can sometimes tell you more about a country than any travel guide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Korespa wants to explore that vast world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The familiar and the unexpected<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We are interested in the big stories, but also in the small ones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Famous places and those hardly anyone knows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Centuries-old traditions and emerging customs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Historical figures and the people creating culture today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We want to explore what defines each place, but also the curiosities, surprising stories and everyday details that can sometimes explain a culture better than major historical events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In an illustrated, accessible, flexible and dynamic way, Korespa aims to explore broad and specific subjects, traditional and contemporary themes, and stories that range from the familiar to the unexpected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because there is always more to learn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Discover before you travel \u2014 or after you return<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Perhaps you are thinking about visiting one of these places.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Perhaps you have already been there and want to understand it better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Perhaps you are learning Spanish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Perhaps you have family roots in a Spanish-speaking country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Or perhaps you are simply curious.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wherever you are reading from, Korespa aims to bring these places closer to you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can explore a city from your sofa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Discover a recipe you have never tried.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Listen to an unfamiliar song.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Understand a tradition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Learn a new expression.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Discover a story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And perhaps, one day, decide to travel there and experience it for yourself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A magazine for curious people<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We do not pretend to know everything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Spanish-speaking world is far too large, diverse and constantly changing for that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Korespa is a project built around continuous discovery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We want to learn, research, share stories and continue adding new perspectives, places and knowledge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That is why Korespa is also open to people who want to contribute and help us discover something worth sharing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because culture belongs to the people who live it, remember it, create it and share it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Experience the world in Spanish<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Travel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Listen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Read.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Discover.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cook.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Learn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Be surprised.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And above all, enjoy the journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Live, listen, feel, sing and savour the world in Spanish.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We hope you enjoy discovering it as much as we enjoy sharing it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
