Laura and Nalini relive the excitement of a recent visit to Valencia’s spectacular Las Fallas festival – a week-long, fire-fueled celebration of towering sculptures, non-stop fireworks, marching bands, and round-the-clock street parties, all culminating in a dramatic tribute to creativity and chaos.

As well as unpacking the rich history and quirky traditions behind the fiesta, the pair share practical tips for anyone looking to witness the madness in person.

In the Slice of Life segment, sweet treats take center stage. Nalini samples horchata for the first time – a Spanish drink made from soaked, ground tiger nuts – and the duo tuck into fartons, the delicate, spongy sweets typical of the Valencian town of Alboraia.
