    I would like to try living in Spain but I would hate to be somewhere where there are lots of English people who refuse to learn Spanish, integrate in to the community or are a burden on the health service in later life, have to rely on interpreters etc. People have no excuse to learn a language these days, specially if they are retired and have nothing to do! There are lots of resources available for learning. As an English person I am embarrassed by my fellow natives that are too lazy or ignorant to learn the local language and try and integrate in to the community, cultures, etc.

      wauuu you are one of the very few people I've heard say the same as you ... I live in Barcelona and as you know here there are many English, most do not even try to say the greeting in Spanish! I do not say that they speak perfect, but if the basics! because I do not believe at all that if I go to the United Kingdom to have a coffee in a cafeteria they speak to me in Spanish ... and I do not talk to you about young people who get drunk, they make a fool of themselves! huvo once they made a musical event in the street on the beautiful church and the typical drunken English guy got in the middle doing the clown, a shame and disrespect, I do not think that the Spaniards lack the respect towards your customs, parties things like that and if I saw him I would break his head ... I'm sorry for my English, I hope you understand :)

    Hi there, we've been enjoying watching this. It's so good to discover

    as yours. Look forward to more from you.

      Living Walks Thank you. So nice to get good vibes on RUclips these days! Btw, I checked out your Granada walkthrough video and I really liked the shots and smoothness of the cam. Any reason you’re not doing audio commentary as you go?

    • @LivingWalks
      @LivingWalks 5 лет назад

      Hi there, good to hear back from you. We agree it's good to have dialogue and share generally, which is why we are here. Feel free to subscribe if you'd like to support us, it's free of course, no agenda but you get to see more of this area, as we'll soon put more up. Regarding no commentary - We're very interested in 'slow TV', no presenters, muzak, opinion, just an unchanged and immersive walk with natural sounds and real time sights. We may be adding some subtle words to future video's though, just to give salient information. Thank you for adding your video's we look forward to sharing more content between us.

    What is really funny is that when you ask a spaniard that lives abroad what he misses most about spain we usually say food, people, lifestyle, etc. while in this opposite case most of them say the don't miss anything in particular. It's interesting.

      Jajaja. Cuanta ignorancia
      Andalucia, es básicamente, romana, y Árabe, no africana.
      Lo mismo que Portugal y el sur de Italia y las islas Mediterráneas .
      Y Grecia ha estado invadida 500 años por turcos musulmanes.
      Y Constantinopla, Bizancio, Imperio Romano de Oriente lleva ocupada 600 años por musulmanes turcos.

  • @XXX09615
    @XXX09615 10 лет назад

    Well, in my experience Italians are more friendly than Germans, I´d feel more comfortable amongst the former, but yes, it depends on the individual, and we all have our own preferences. Nordic people are cold, reserved, introvert, but not Syrians, Moroccans, Mexicans who are quite the opposite.

  • @Pedopoke

  • @XXX09615
    @XXX09615 10 лет назад

    If Germans or British, or Swedish are introvert, reserved, unfrriendly, shy, that´s not my invention, I used to be like that when I was a child, when I was immature, so I used to be a German when I was a kid, ha ha, that´s simply psychology.

  • @anacasanova7350
    @anacasanova7350 3 года назад

    Yo no creo que todos estos jubilados ingleses tengan estudios secundarios y mucho menos universitarios.
    Así que no existe en la mayoría de ellos la inclinación de estudiar , aprender y leer.
    Ellos , con comer pizza , patatas fritas y steks y beber cerveza y gins y wiskies se les va el día para estudiar español.
    Yo soy española y hablo catalán, entiendo un poco gallego, portugués e italiano un poco de inglés y francés . He estudiado durante años, inglés y francés 8 o 9 años, incluso jubilada. Y no convivo ni con ingleses ni franceses.
    No todo el mundo tiene el impulso, la necesidad de aprender por el gusto de aprender por muy extranjero que se sea.
    Actualmente la gente más joven europea y americana aprenden Español en el colegio e instituto.

  • @XXX09615

    @XXX09615 10 лет назад

    Yes, Nordic people are more rational, more modern than others, but also they are colder, more distant, reserved, like a child or teenager should be compared to the adults. Every nation has good things and bad qualities. I wouldn´t say Nordics are nice, people to share something, to be comfortable around them, to do something with them, but they have the other qualities like everybody has.

    @buscotrabajo28 You can learn to speak another language in less than a year if you go to that country, learning at your own country with zero interaction with the language and culture will take years upon years and half the things you learn from books are outdated.

Anyway, you've been to the two cities in Spain were people are a bit "weird" in the sense that they don't open up to people until they get use to them. You should have come to the Canary Islands or should have gone to Andalusia.
