This video makes me want to move right now. I love it. Also can you do a video on the neighborhoods where the locals live? I would like to see houses and residential areas that are not infested with tourists. It seems like every Valencia video on KZread is just about the city center. Thanks!

Excellent video! We’re visiting Spain for the first time next year for 3 months and found this extremely helpful.

Just wanted to say I also found this video super helpful. We will be there for a month and a half this summer and some of the little things you mentioned were super helpful. (I watched it a second time with my wife) You guys could do a whole series like this about navigating different aspects of living there - how to get cellphone service, how to find an apartment and what to look for, how to find someone to fix things in your home, etc.

As a Spaniard who lived in Valencia for years, it´s a very accurate of everything going on. The only thing I disagree with is the lack of coffee varieties: that only happens when you go to supermarkets such as Mercadona, well-known for giving you an extremely limited number of brands, prioritizintg their own; but go to Carrefour, Alcampo or even better, El Corte Inglés, and you´ll find a great variety, including many of the most well-known brands (and most expensive) from all around Europe. Same goes for beer... ;) Best!

@@EverythingIsBoffo No worries. Mercadona has become an Empire by making their "quality white brand" products a staple. But the fact is it´s probably THE worst place you can go if you want to find variety and the very best brands, simply because they have a phenomenal business based exactly in the opposite. That´s why I recommended El Corte Inglés, which is certainly more expensive, but it also has its own "cheap" white brand, on top of the very best brands in the market. It´s just not coffee or beers: it´s pizza, pasta, salads, cold meats, canned foods, wines, whiskey... you name it. Heck, ECI had "home made" foods like 25 years before Mercadona had them... :D Don´t discard Consum either: my favorite balance, when I lived there, among quality brands, and reasonable prices. Just make sure it´s a big store. Best!

Thanks for the video guys. Do yous know if it's cheaper to buy fruit and veg from the supermarkets or from the fruiterlias?

@EverythingIsBoffo

Definitely from the fruiterias. Not only are they cheaper but you don’t have to buy more than you need. I can buy 1 head of garlic, 1 onion, 1 lemon, etc. whereas supermarkets usually sell them in bags of 4.

Hi Richard, thank you for the support and feedback. We appreciate it! ☺️ I wanna figure out why it sounds that way to you, so you can fully enjoy our videos. When we edit we can see the actual levels of the music, so we know how to balance the sound. The music we chose didn’t have much bass on it. Do the videos sound all bass on your phone too? We tried watching on our speaker system and on phone and laptop and we don’t hear bass. Could it be your subwoofer is too high/loud? Hope we can figure it out! Let us know! Thanks again!
