I’m planning on taking a trip to Spain in late Spring of 2024 for 2 weeks of which 3-5 days will be in Valencia. Keep up the good work, I’ll be following your adventures and experience living in Valencia (Spain). When I’m there in late Spring 2024, I would love to take both of you out to dinner ( on me ) on your recommendation! Take care and keep living the dream!

We are planning a trip to Valencia this coming late October to visit our son who will be there this coming school year during his freshman college year. Wondering if you can tell me a few of your favorite side area trips? We were thinking of heading to Alicante and that area for a few days. We will have 10 days total and will stay in Valencia for at least 5 days before we head to other areas. Thanks so much!

    I only have one question. When you get on a bus/tram/tube and you validate your ticket the first time, do you have to validate it again if you change buses/trams/tube (assuming your bus doesn't take you where you need to go, and you have to make a transfer) and your trip is still within the 90 minutes from first validation and it will still count as 1 trip, or do you not have to validate it at all as long as your trip hasn't exceeded the 90 minutes from first validation? Thank you so much for your videos, I find them sooo helpful and you two are very adorable so it's always a fun watch :-)

    9 ай бұрын

    I think it depends on how much transportation you will be using on those 5 days. The city is very walkable and most touristy spots are close together. A regular transit card will be more cost effective if you don’t need to use the bus/metro often and can be shared by more than 1 person because it’s per trip. And then you can reload as needed.
