Molletes for the Irish “Extranjero”

For some time, an Irish “Extranjero” called Oisin Gregorian was living in Marchena. He worked as a teacher of English at Aulaforum. At the same time he wrote some articles for TheJournal.ie where he also uploaded some videos telling his experiences living as an inmigrant in Spain. They can be watched on Youtube. http://www.thejournal.ie/readme/emigrating-alone-to-spain-1721704-Oct2014/

It is interesting to know what foreigners think about us and this one writes, among other things, about how he saw Marchena, the village, its people, culture and customs. Well, he does not only write about Marchena, since now he is living and working in Seville, but it is worth reading and listening to his experiences.

A very funny video is about his search for Marchena’s best mollete called Discovering Molletes. In his blog called The Irish Extranjero you can find this and some more videos that he has recorded and uploaded so far. http://theirishextranjero.blogspot.com.es/2016/07/an-ode-to-marchenas-molletes.html

And recently, last 11th April, 2017, he came back to Marchena and yesterday, the 2nd May, he uploaded a new video called In Search of Molletes. Here you have the link too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EWL81AksTLw

The images that are used here are screenshots from his videos. Have a look at them and it is a good exercise for students to listen to these authentic graphic documents.
