Majority of Spaniards loves France so much, the fake hate is just a meme. We are neighbours and much more.

I love how the Spanish establishes and maintains friendships through lots of body contact - kisses on the cheek, lots of hugging, and basically just getting up there in one‘s personal space. This makes interactions much more close and personal.

Also I don't know if you know Spanish, but when writing to friends you also refer to things like this at the ends of emails, like ''un fuerte abrazo'' - ''a big hug'' or ''un beso'' - ''a kiss'', which is fairly charming.

There is a downside to it, you know. If the interaction is negative, it is also much more close and personal.

I lived in Spain for 16 years. My Spanish neighbours were friendly, curious about us and always generous with food and produce. They stayed up late, ate late and could never understand why our dogs lived indoors. They were noisy and excitable about life in general. The TV was on permanently. I was shown how to cook Spanish food which was lovely. They didn't really get us being vegeterian. Never mind they were good to us in lots of ways. We helped with the animals horses, dogs and chickens. It was a rural life so very different to big cities.

I'm a spanish person and I need to say that all spanish people are nice its just that some are still learning on how to take care of themself and other people at the same time (like me) but we're very friendly BUT when someone destroys our limits some spanish people might use violence or just run away in anger (like me)

So basically Brits love in Spanish people what they don't have: siesta, better weather, having fun, showing their emotions...Thank you, Mitch, for this beautiful episode❤

It is likely that, partly because of historical reasons, people in the U.S. have failed to understand their neighbours. They even tend to refer to them using terms that actually belong to Europeans like Hispanic or Latino, whereas Mexico has got a big Native American influence both in their people and their food. Technically, Mexicans are way more American than U.S. Americans are. And yes, even the U.S. Census recognises that Native American can refer to any person whose origin is in North, Central, or South America.

Minute 10.48,I agree with this bloke that we spanish are much more honest than British but it has its pros and cons ,Spanish honesty it’s sometimes too much specially in a working environment when someone doesn’t like you they make your life misserable due to being imposible for us to hide our feelings or toughts towards others,They are much more polite than us ,there is no question about it ,when someone bumps into u At any place in the Uk they will always say “sorry” ,here you rarely will hear anything .

As a spanish, the image I have about brits is that the population is very polarized in two types of people: drunken hooligans, and more noble and cultured people. Also the image I think a big part of the world has is that britain has the worst food in the world. I also know none of this is true, because I've never been there and it is just what I got from internet, tv, etc.

I am not British but I think Spanish people are nice and polite. However for me as a non-native English speaker sometimes it is hard to understand their English. Do you dare to make the same video asking British people what they think about the Easter European people? (I think you don't.)

Could you please make a video on What do British People Think About The Germans?

No, it's not that we don't like that you're here, which seems right to us. It is that you do not learn the language. After unconditional years. Although if you think about it we really don't care that's your problem. Besides, you already know that your accent is not easy to understand. Try a little more (to learn spanish ) as if it were an anecdote in your life.

Cultural aspect is so interesting. I suppose this is why former British and Spanish colonies turned out so differently.

If the UK had Spain's weather, I think British people would be just as happy as Spanish people and would also live that outdoor social life. Just look at Australia, they are basically Brits but with better weather and beaches, and they're way happier. I think most British people are depressed and they don't realise it because they're basically forced to live their life inside and never see the sun. There's nothing to do except drink alcohol and watch terrible TV for most people, but if we get a heatwave in summer, the country comes alive. I would love to be outside all the time but because it's cold and grey overcast skies every single day, I live my life in front of my PC sadly enough.

1: 🇪🇸food - no comparison to all its neighbouring countries. 2: stick to using - Brits and British, although you are interviewing people in Brighton. 3: your advertisement writes - practice. It is not wrong and yet better to “practise” when we speaking British.

I've lived in 10 countries, 3 of which were Arab countries. I'm originaly from the US. I've been in Spain for 23 years. I honestly do not think people/a culture are more open or less open or more of this or more of that in some sort of monolithic way. There are cultural generalisations about a people/culture which are often too many times confused with sterotypes. I think the Spanish as whole or the Brits or whoever as whole might be nicer, more "open" about one thing and more closed minded about other things. For example, in Spain, rarely if ever do you have lunch or let alone dinner at the Spanish person's house unless you are part of the family. The Spanish home tends to be a very private space compared to what I've seen in the US or France. The Spanish tend to meet outside. Not all Spanish of course. Religion is more private topic in Spanish where in the US Americans tend to talk about God, their relationp to God more freely. In Spain, religion is private, associated with the "dark catholic inquistion franco conservative nasty history." Where in the US God is associated with different relgions, faith, the spiritual, and personal connection. It's totally different! : ) cheeers. Good video!

I think in general most Spanish people are nice but they can be weirdly cliquey and also frustratingly rude and arrogant at times. Like if you have one Spanish colleague you know, they are fine on their own but if they are with other Spanish people they suddenly group together and the person will act like they don't know you, it's very strange.
