Wow, you just showed up in our feed, and I watched your Reasons I left the United States: 3 years later in Spain and Why Spain is Richer than the U.S. videos. Oh man, you really articulate some things that other ex-pat videos (including my own) have not been able to - at least not in such an eloquent and polished way. I liked both videos and am now subscribed. We moved from San Diego 3 years ago to France (Grenoble). The thoughts you expressed in those two videos really resonated with us. I've always searched for a way to boil down the 1,001 reasons life is better here. The other day I told my cousin that life is less stressful here than it was in the U.S. That came close. I'm looking forward to watching this video and others if only to watch a kindred spirit. Thank you and Bon Courage!
Habrás visto la campaña que se está haciendo en el mundo por culpa de dos tarados en el campo de fútbol del Valencia,tu que tienes difusión deberías hacer un vídeo diciendo si es cierto que los españoles somos unos racistas,yo me siento muy dolido porque es totalmente falso que seamos así 😢.
Your videos are insightful and honest- a breath of fresh air. I might be one of your oldest followers at 69. Keep doing it your way. Congratulations on 10,000 subscribers.
ANTOANETTA, Congratulations! I’m surprised, however, that you don’t have more subscribers, like 500K because your videos are so thoughtful and well done. I really appreciate how you integrate different perspectives and values into your commentary along with the historical and social-cultural information. I’m American and my family is from Spain and Cuba and I grew up with mainly the attitudes and values of the latter 2 along with a good smattering of the former. But socially and culturally I’ve always had a challenging time adjusting to life in the US. I’ve traveled around Spain a good deal and lived there for a year ages ago. For years now, as I’ve headed toward retirement I have thought of getting my citizenship and moving there. I am sorting out some health issues and starting to get other details taken care of so I can make the move. I mention this because, of course, I get cold feet every now and then, but when I watch or rewatch your vlogs I’m reassured that I’m making the right decision. BTW I hope you get a tutor and seriously study Spanish because you are going to grasp so much more and you will enjoy yourself so much more. Keep up the good work!
I love your channel, I'm a subscriber. I thought you were Spanish, now I heard you say you speak little of it. Can you tell us where are you from originally & what other languages do you speak? I always wanted to move to Europe. I can pick up on French pretty quickly bc I studied it before (32 y.s in the US I forgot French) & I speak 2 more languages besides English. But no Spanish. How can I get around without Spanish in Spain?
I’ve been enjoying your videos for a while. I have been living in a small Pueblo on the Gulf of Mexico, not too far, from the city of Merida. Moving to another country is an adjustment, but I really enjoy being here. People are very friendly and kind, at least all I’ve met have been so. You are tempting me to visit Valencia, perhaps soon. If so, we’ll have to meet for coffee, if you’re free ! Until, then please keep making your videos ! And the idea of a short flight to Paris is also exciting to contemplate !😊
Congrats! I'm sure your number of subscribers will continue to grow. The videos are great, obviously Mr. Boyfriend is very talented, also your comments about some issues in the US are spot on! keep up the great work!
Felicidades Antoanetta aunque sea en español espero consigas mas subscriptores por el gran trabajo que haces para enseñar al mundo la riqueza de españa , y me alegro seas muy feliz en mi pais
This vlog was very heart-warming...It takes a lot of work and I can only imagine how good it feels to be appreciated for your work! Although my heart is in Portugal I look forward to visiting Valencia thanks to you!! I've been to various parts of Spain including Granada and Malaga and I look forward to more trips since we are so close! I love traveling so whatever you decide to do i will follow you!!
I know that to be true about the elderly....I am from León but I live in the USA and there are so many things I miss about the Spanish culture...I am thinking of going back...
I love Yorkshire terriers! Love your jewelry! I’m a lost wax caster! I just lost my puppies 1 yorkie and a silky terrier and her son! I miss them so! I’m in denver. Im a Galician Gallegos. Good luck with your channel! Fellow jewelry Artist😊
Congratulations Antoanetta. Your hard work is paying off. I started watching your videos about 2 years ago. I got somewhat attached to you and your videos, I guess because your work with jewelry. My father used to make watch casings of 18k gold engraved with diamonds. Sorry I went into a tangent... Anyway, time permitting, please do a video on Alicante and Málaga? Specifically the small towns around them. Ah, by the end of this year you should have between 15 to 20k subscribers. Good luck on your endeavors. As we say to nice people that we know in Brazil, um forte abraço e um beijo. Tudo de bom para você.
Congratulations on reaching 10000 subscribers. We love going on your adventures! My favorite video was when you went back to Bulgaria and revisited some of the places you saw as a child. It was so touching, I loved that one, and so many others. You are a great communicator! I look forward to all your upcoming videos.
Congratulations on the 10k subscribers! I just joined myself to your channel!🎉🎉🎉🎉 I'm almost 50 and I'm in the Chicago area. And I've been thinking about how and where to spend the next 10 years of my life. Spain sounds most appealing. Luckily for me, I'm fairly fluent in Spanish.😂 Heare some of the reasons I like you and your channel... You speak English extremely well. Most people in the States don't speak as well as you do! Even the ones with degrees! The photography/filming. Clear. Captivating. Beautiful scenery. And the videos aren't long or boring. The content. You see the bs that's going on here for what it is. And you've kept your head straight and chose to be neutral, like I am. I'm in a navy blue city and my views aren't all conservative, but to many here, I'm a stick in the mud😂 Lastly... We like YOU! After spending so much time in California, you still seem genuinely nice and personable. And your eyebrows are so on point!!!😂 Looking forward to seeing more of your work! Hope you hit 1 million subscribers soon! (Air hug)
Congratulations 🎉 I have enjoyed your Valencia videos especially the neighborhood videos! As someone coming to Valencia this summer on a scouting trip I would love more neighborhood specific videos! Also videos on how to do things like buy metro/bus passes, some useful and simple Spanish sentences for shopping at markets, and maybe what the rental market is like. Those are just a couple video ideas if you are interested 😊 Thanks for all the wonderful videos and here’s to many more 🎉
You're doing a great job and you deserve 10000 and more indeed,however,I am still waiting for your future trip to Malaga enjoy your visit to Bali have fun
Been to Bali a few times, since my wife is from Indonesia, and really enjoyed it. Lombok, just to the east of Bali, is my plan C for retirement. Valencia is plan A.... and we will be going to Valencia in 2 weeks to check it out. Your videos helped us make this decision. Thank you.
Have watched this particular video 2 times and have been following you since the beginning, CONGRATULATIONS on your 10,000 subscribers, also bought your guide, very impressive, I will be in Valencia end of June and wonder if you have any recommendations for Paella Cooking Class!
Hello Antoanetta. I’m a fan. I’ve been to Madrid & Barcelona a couple of times. My next trip to Spain should be in Valencia. Btw, is dental tourism big in Valencia too? Thanks and hoping to get some info.
Felicidades Antoanetta por tus 10000 Subscriptores, espero wue siga creciendo mucho más, y que sigas mostrándonos toda la belleza de Valencia de España en general y de Europa en general.
Hace tiempo que te veo .. soy española .. y te dire que hoy note tu cara diferente ..con mas luz facciones mas relajadas ... Jjj como decimos aquí tienes el guapo subido ..
My favorite subject from your videos is your authentic enthusiasm in which you promote spain🇪🇸 I stumbled across your channel and found it to be very informative. I am subscribed. Also i wanted to compliment how beautiful you are inside and out. If i ever am living in spain, i hope to find friends like yourself. I like your content. ❤
Antoanetta, have you ever made a video on the subject of how to transfer monetary funds from the US to Spain? I would like to get your feedback on it and if you made any updates or changes to your method in the interim.
I am subscribed from another account but just realized I wasn't from this new channel of mine, so made sure to do so! ;) Antoanetta congrats on the fun growth!
I have never been to Spain. Thanks to you, I'm learning about the country. Especially Valencia. The best part of your videos is that, you are direct and sincere, no sugar coatting.
EL ESPAÑOL LO HABLAS CON UNA SUAVIDAD Y TRANQUILIDAD SUPERIOR AL INGLES/EEUU , HABLAS UN ESPAÑOL RELAJANTE, QUE RELAJA MUCHO, CREO QUE EN TU OTRA VIDA FUISTE ESPAÑOLA.
Ms Antoanetta, he he he you mentioned me not susbscriber yet .... explain why .....eating to me i don't because l am hungry l look l smell l ask my self if i like what see smell l have to find how they cook, i see you once l find my place to live, sincerely, Manolo
Hola antoanetta,sólo decirte que te sigo hace tiempo,que la españa más auténtica está fuera de las grandes ciudades,está en el interior del país, dónde no llegan los turistas,en los pueblos,ay si que podrás disfrutar de lo sencillo de la vida en España,de su gente amable ,a veces menos es más,un saludo desde Extremadura
congratulations Antoanetta! I've been researching and learning more about Spain and in particular Valencia for a few weeks now as I consider a move out of the US. Your real life honest perspective and walk around the city help give a strong look and feel of Valencia (and other cities).
I love your videos and I know one of my many dreams is to travel more to Europe and live there from time to time , in either spain or italy in which I have travel and felt in love with those 2 countries....spain I know would be easier because I speak espanol as my ancestors were from spain and I feel inside my being that, that is coming very soon!!! so excited :) my question to you my dear is, why you dont involve your boyfriend more in the videos? :) I am sure you guys make a beautiful couple XOXO
Hello Antoinette, my wife and I really enjoy your videos! We are really interested in moving to Spain, but need to know more about how much we would have to pay in taxes. Have you done any videos on that?
Congratulations on your 10,000 subscribers! We are currently in Valencia for a month, partly based on your videos. Really enjoy your videos on the different neighborhoods and your passion for Valencia!
Congrats on the 10k subs. Would love to see you do more comparisons of Valencia with other Spanish cities and towns (Malaga, Bilbao, Santander, etc...) like you did with Barcelona.
Major Tom to Antoanetta Control. Congrats on hitting 10,000. We had plans to move from Austin, Texas to Valencia in March 2020. Covid put those plans on hold. We are now making plans again and have purchased your Essential Guide. 👍 Austin is know for its live music. I hear Valencia has a great music scene. We would appreciate a video on the latest music venues and musicians in the city Thank you.
Congratulations Antoanetta! It's because of you that I am now in Valencia.
Thank you 🙏🏻 😊

Congratulations Antoanetta. Your hard work is paying off. I started watching your videos about 2 years ago. I got somewhat attached to you and your videos, I guess because your work with jewelry.

Initially, I thought there was a Bali in Span. You're referring to Bali in Indonesia, right? Congrats on your channel.

Hello Antoinette, my wife and I really enjoy your videos! We are really interested in moving to Spain, but need to know more about how much we would have to pay in taxes. Have you done any videos on that?
She's got a video where she talks extensively about that...taxes.
