Hola, Spain lovers! We're James and Yoly. James is a New Zealander, and Yoly is from Spain. And we both live in Madrid. This channel is all about giving you a local insight into life in Spain, and helping you experience this country like a local when you come to visit (or live!). If that sounds like your kind of thing, bienvenido!

just did 6 days andalouise : seville , cordoba and Madrid tour , it is fabulous . historical momuments , food , people . all so lovely . All open and not much tourists from all over the world yet , good period to enjoy the most of these cities . Spain is a great nation . Thanks for your multiple great videos , which assist me a lot in finding tapas spots .
So glad!
Hello! I'm driving from Lisbon to Seville in August. Would you know if there are any border restrictions?
I love Yoly with her adorable baby bump and rocking the flamenco moves
Aw thanks!!! Loving being pregnant, to be honest! 🥰
Omg god. Go Yoli. Nothing like a good women pregnant. Baby in the oven. Love that.
On last check, Baby Blick is a girl! I bet Yoly will be a good flamenco coach. ;)
I just wanted to write, and thank you both for this channel. I am Canadian, but grew up on la Costa del Sol ( 1978-1989) and I miss Spain very much. It is neat to see what has changed and what is very much the same. Your channel has been such a great way to show my partner and my kids all about Spain, as we have been unable to travel back for me to show them. We are hopeful to visit in the future and you have given us some great ideas of things to see and do in other parts of Spain. Keep doing your thing, it’s fabulous!
I just came back from Madrid with my girlfriend, flying from Germany.
9 lovely days visiting the whole city.
We visited maybe all the places you showed in your videos. The bar "el anciano rey de los vinos" was our favorite.
Nice "rabo de toro" dish with a nice vermut and lovely views to the Almudena and royal palace. Amazing!
Thank you!!
I'm going to Spain in August from South Korea and staying for 2weeks
Of course, Madrid too.
I hope things to go back to normal completely when I arrive.
Thanks for this video,I'm looking forward to this trip:)
I just came to Spain on 28th for 6 months and from what I saw everything looks pretty normal to me. I mean this is my first time in Spain, but I don't see anything unusual like places being closed or reservations bring super important. In fact the city is filled with Tourists and it's a very good feeling here compared to Germany where I was, where things are getting better but there's still some more restrictions than what I saw in Spain do far
Congratulations!!! Awww Yoli is glowing 🤗💐 would love to see vlog on Spanish traditions regarding new baby ❤️
I was in Málaga, Caminito del Rey and Sevilla a few weeks ago. Even though we needed a negative PCR test on arrival (actually only at check in counter), it was worth it. There were no queue at all at the main attractions including Caminto del Rey!! It was easy to get a table at all of my favorite restaurants. It was actually the best time to go before tourists from other countries start to arrive in Spain. The staff at the hotels and restaurants are much nicer since they don’t feel as stressed out.
The only thing is that one has to wear a mask on the street.
Thank you for the video update. Congratulations on the soon to be new addition to the family!
I would like to add my 2 cents to this video. As a resident of Valencia, the city center is open and thriving. There are a lot of restaurants and tapas locations that are open for business. Some are even opened on Sunday. Places may be open in Spain but masks are still required wherever you go. So, keep that in mind. People wear masks while walking outdoors too with the only exception to remove it while drinking or eating. The weather in Valencia has been quite warm so if you are planning to visit, come prepared with comfortable clothes and sunscreen. The fashion here is quite relaxed, but please, no socks and sandals !!! Prepare for a wonderful time here. Spain hasn't lost anything which makes this country unique during the pandemic. The food is still outstanding, the people are still welcoming and the beverages continue to flow. Bon Voyage!
We had a trip to Valencia cancelled last year. Unfortunately our government are making travel difficult at the moment, but can't wait till when we can visit Valencia. Definitely no socks and sandals
masks outdoor are total bullshit
Adding to your two cents, just a tip, when yoli talked about non alcoholic beverages he though of Madrid. If you go to Valencia, HORCHATA is a very worthy addition.
@@Lukasz531 Well, I just read a moment ago that masks for outdoors in Spain will no longer be required as of June 26th.
@@mizginavale22 thats a good news because Im going to visit Malaga but fact that they required these so long is sick
My wife and I are flying to Madrid this Friday to celebrate our 20th anniversary. We’ll be on the Devour tapas tour next Monday and going to Las Carboneras next Tuesday, we CANT WAIT!!! 🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸
It felt delightful when I saw you were back. I got so exited to see you showing Madrid again💓 Both of you look great and Yoli is so "coqueta" dancing, it was fabulous. Your baby was even dancing. My daughter Fernanda has started Flamenco classes without telling me🇪🇸
I am sure your enthusiasm is so catchy, you'll bring a lot of tourists.
Thank you for this😍
Nice optimistic video. I am glad to know many good places still are available and survived. Look forward to all your new content.
I can't wait to come. You guys allow me to fall in love with Spain 🇪🇸 over and over again!!!!!😍😍😍
So very nice to see you out together. Your itinerary stops continue to be a pleasure to stroll along to learn of endless sights of beautiful Spain. Ole!
Spain is love. Greetings from Georgia. 🇬🇪
Thanks so much for this video. We booked our trip as soon as I learned we were allowed back into Spain. One of my favorite places and can’t wait to get back.
This video made me SOOOO happy. It's great to see Spain getting back to normal. It's the Spain I remember. I can't wait to get back.
Very soon, James!
Never thought I would miss a Kiwi 😉 , but it’s good to see you, Yoli and tapas again.
Love your passionate work and enthusiasm for this channel. Thank you! Can't wait to take the family back to Madrid and visit all the places you both have talked about in your videos. Question: Is Granada going to be on any of your upcoming videos?
congratulations you guys!
trip to Spain still on hold - but we will get there...
in the meantime we will just enjoy your posts
James and Yoly, I love your videos. Your videos helped me plan my first Spain trip back in 2017. I have been a fan since. Thank you for your informative videos , as always. The Pandemic put a pause on my return trip to Madrid, but I hope to visit soon. Stay safe and healthy! Cheers! Saludos from los Estados Unidos. Oh! And you guys now live near were my parents lived! My parents lived in el barrio Concepcion. On my first trip to Madrid, I visited Quintana and Concepcion. Loved the neighborhood vibe. Had my first tinto de verano there. Cheers!
Gracias!!!
I’m there now in the Canary Islands but Boris needs to turn Spain 💚. The 10 day quarantine and £150 tests putting lots of people off.! I wish you all the luck for tourism to return soon . 🥰
Wow just found out baby is in the oven!!!! Congratulations to you both! I’m very happy for you! Great video, someday I hope to visit Spain! Peace and love. 🌷🌷🌷🌸🌸🌸🌸
I am going to Madrid in September. Thank you for the updates tips!!!
One of the very best episodes of of Spain Revealed. Love it!
Congratulations on expecting a baby!!! Love your videos. Going there in a couple of weeks to stay a couple of months in Madrid. I’d love to run into you guys to say hello!
Hey James and yoli. Just want to let you know that I have always found your channel superbly helpful and I am visiting Madrid and signed up for devour tour on Thursday Nov 4th 10:30 AM.
Can't wait !!!
So good to hear from you both and get some reassurance that things are open and ready for tourism. I'm really looking forward to the next time I'll be able to visit (hopefully sooner rather than later!). We shall see!
Fingers crossed Matt!
Thank you very much for the video! Hello from Tucson, Arizona USA!
Thanks for the update! I booked tickets and a hotel in Madrid for October. I especially appreciate the recommendations for non alcoholic beverages as I'm traveling with my teenage daughter.
Congratulations on your new addition!!!
LOVE it, looks so great to be out and about in Madrid. Glad you guys are able to enjoy. Can’t wait to be back in Spain come August.
Another great vid, salute guys🥰
Great video as always. Good luck guys! 👍👍👍
I've just booked!! First foreign holiday in four years and not been to Spain for about 20 years. So excited. Sevilla here we come!
thanks for the video! I've booked my trip for July and hoping to visit Spain for the first time, so glad that it not as crowded yet.
Thanks for the update. I really wish I could go now and enjoy some of the “quiet” but will have to wait till next year. Yoli te vez bellísima!
I see congratulations are in order!! All the very Best to you both! I love your videos! Spain is really beautiful! You guys are so great together! All the very Best!
Muchas felicidades a los dos por vuestro embarazo, Yoli está bellísima. Me parece que hacéis un trabajo impagable dando a conocer al mundo entero lo maravillosa que es nuestra querida España. Muchísimas gracias.
I've booked an accommodation and flight tickets to Barcelona (in August). If the situation gets worse I'm ready to not go (flight tickets are non-refundable, but I and my wife can live with ~200€ less). There are generally good prices for accomodations right now and they are often refundable up to few days before arrival, which is really great.
Glad you’re ready to come!
I was going to portugal and then onto Spain but im being cautious about the reality of country hopping so im holding off booking for the time being. Enjoyed the video
As a Spaniard, I can tell you not to be worried. Vaccination is advancing steadily, and ICU units are only at 10% of their capacity.
Next weekend, masks will stop being mandatory outside (if safety distance can be kept). We still need them for interior areas, public transportation, stores...
For the first time in very long, the government is optimistic, and so are the people. Things are looking to improve.
Enjoyed as always 😊
Love ❤️ you guys!! Congratulations 🎈👏 with the baby 🍼!!!!
So happy you guys are back...
Can't wait for our borders here to be open so that I can come back to Spain, I miss everything about Spain.
This Channel is my favorite, I love the Spanish culture and you guys are so informative. Thank. You
I did. Two weeks ago. Enjoyed few of your reccomendations for food.
They were excellent: Sala de Despiece, and La Montería.
I will be back. Thank you.
So good to hear that places are getting back to normal
This is Madrid yes? Have you done a Madrid neighborhoods video?
A cities/neighborhoods comparison series would be great too.
You two are blessed! I can feel the rich quality of life. Great vicarious joy!
I am so glad you are still doing videos, you have so many friends on RUclips that you have never met. I am sure there will come a time when you need to focus on Yoli and Baby Blick, just put out a quick snippet so we don’t have to worry.
You are both looking and sounding great - it is so good to see a new video with some timely information. Be well, be happy and practice your besos on each other for when they come back into public fashion.
I miss you guys I was wondering why I didn’t hear from you since the live video I’m glad Everything is alright
We are coming in the end of September/beginning of October. We missed our trip last year. A couple of day in Madrid, then Valencia and Alicante.
Awesome video!! Very informative and helped me calm my nerves a bit before traveling there 😅 God Bless your growing family!
Thank you for the helpful info, guys!
We are thinking of an October or November travel to Spain, provided we can still visit with just vaccine certificates. The thing is we love Spain, but hot weather above 30C is not our thing and Oct-Nov should be quite pleasant in that regard.
Can't wait to come see Madrid and the area, really hope to be able this year * fingers crossed *
I’m already here thanks. Enjoying your vids.
Spanish Covid restrictions have made table service the norm.
The country generally followed the restriction willingly. A few immigrants that I know complained continually.
@Thomas Hellberg you can never have enough freedom...
@Thomas Hellberg deinem Namen nach zu urteilen, bist du Deutsch. Und nach dem Wirt "Gesichtswindel" zu urteilen, haben wir beide dieselbe Einstellung...aber was heißt "jabbed"?
Gracias por este vídeo y por incentivar la vuelta del turismo!
Yes, al looking good for our 3 week visit in september. By the way, congratulations and Yoly, I love your "cardigan". Want to buy something similar in Spain. Thanks for the great video 👍😁
Yoly, you look so Happy, You don't need alcohol to enjoy yourself!
Este canal hace por el turismo de España más que cualquier campaña de publicidad de cualquier administración publica
From the Philippines here! Cant wait to be back!
I went to Spain in 2019 as part of my Eurail trip. It was the best place out of about 20 contries I visited. It has come a long way in 30 years. Immaculately clean, and modern. Well worth the trip there.
How is 30 years from 2019 happened already?
@@kingwinter2024 I went there 30 years ago too. It's changed heaps since then.
Good video. Thanks for sharing. I want to visit.
Looks so good, can't wait to get back to spain
we booked our 3r trip to Spain as soon as we hear cant wait! yogi is looking great
Going to madrid on January for a couple of days. Thanks for motivating me to go and visit for the first time. Hope to bump into you guys in Pueblo Nuevo
Thanx, we are just back from Malaga which was really nice, also stopped of in Águilas on our way back up to our home in Alicante !!
You can teach how to make orxata, as there is many places where they do not have it: "Xufa" tiger nut (or rush nut) put in rice water (boil some rice with water because if you make it with normal water is very laxative) one night or more, after then just mixed, filtered and cooled, and 24h more later you'll have 24h to drink it. Usually you add white sugar, but you can use stevia or honey, as it is healthier.
Thank you!
Thank you Guys i love it you back ....i love to go to Donosti again but i am not really sure this year :o(
We are booked for October. Looking forward to our first ever Devour Tour in Madrid.
We're going for 9 day Globus tour Sept. Front that with 5 days in Paris.
I went to Basque Country 2 weeks ago and it was a bit quieter than usual but tons of domestic tourism and things are closed by 11/12 but def reasonable to travel to Spain if you’ve always dream of it and I loved everything about it! Just wished it didn’t thunderstorm like 7/10 days I was there
Thanks. Insightful
You 3 look great. Can't wait to be there in February 2022. We are going to do a DeVoer tour in Barcelona on our Viking cruise over night stop .
See you next year!! ❤️
Thanks for the video, it answered a lot of questions we had now that vaccinated US citizens are allowed into Spain, we are considering traveling this summer.
I am here in Madrid guys! Been here since the 11th of Junio and congratulations on JR!
Yoli!!! Your pregnant, congratulations!!! So excited for you both.
We’re so looking forward to our much delayed catch up with family. Even now the quarantine on return we don’t mind. What we do mind is the testing extortionate prices -for that we’re saving up additional cash even if spain remains amber for uk travellers
im new here but i love travel vlog and i find interesting your content, lots of things to learn about foods, places, and the community and culture. Spain is one country i love to visit.
I'm headed there tomorrow from LA!!
You should do a tapas crawl at Calle Virgen de Nuria off Parque El Calero. This is always busy with locals.
I'm booked for end of August at hotel atlantico in Madrid but they don't open until September. Bummer.
I’ll be flying into Madrid at the end of July 💃🏽
Yoly you are glowing. You guys are the best. Cheers.
love you... so positive....so happy
I can’t wait to get back. I’m looking forward to seeing my favourite city Seville again. What’s your absolute favourite place to go when your there?
Reales Alcazares (Game of thrones gardens), Bodega de Santa Cruz, and all the bars nearby, El Malaguita, and El Romerijo,
@@mitcoes Reales Alcazares is stunningly beautiful. The food in Bodega de Santa Cruz is great and the buzz in the place added to the fun. I think I preferred the pringá in Casa Morales however, I’d happily have both right now lol :-)
Las golondrinas :)
@@spainrevealed great, I’ll make sure my friends and I pay it a visit when we’re back 👍 :-)
Thanks for the advice!!! I'm really looking forward to going to Spain, how is winter in Madrid and Andalucia?
Good to see y’all.
Greetings from Korea.
Many thanks for extending hospitality during our President’s visit.
We Koreans are deeply moved.
I and my wife have been watching closely the situation surrounding Delta variants of Corona virus.
If it can be controlled somehow we plan to visit Spain for the winter of 2022-23.
Please stay healthy!
Thank you for the visit of your president! It was nice to have him in Spain, first presidential visit in Spain after the pandemic! I hope the relationship between Spain and South Korea become even stronger and we see big developments for both countries! 🇰🇷❤️🇪🇸 And it will be a pleasure to welcome you in Spain, hope you can come soon.
Yes we here arrived yesterday here in javea for 2 weeks really busy
Going to be moving there next year !
Very nice video guys 👍🍻
New subscriber here.i love your videos guys. I live outside Madrid. 🥰
Thank you very much for sharing this with us. We will be there in two weeks. Yaaaaay 💗🍷🍺🍻🧀🍩🤗
I’m looking forward to seeing my favorite city Barcelona
Nice video! I loved everything except the HORCHATA! Having grown up in SoCal and had Horchata pushed on me, and living in New Mexico now (there is more emphasis on Spanish traditions here, as opposed to Mexican), I really love most Spanish and Mexican foods--except Horchata. Will be moving to Portugal in the next few years, and likely spending time in Spain. Thanks for the video.
Greetings from Nuevo Mexico (USA). We will be coming soon! CANT wait to get to where family came from back in 1598!!
wow!
I'm finally, finally coming to Spain, after more than 2 years away! Going to Málaga in 3 weeks for a long weekend of sitting in the sun and wandering unfamiliar streets. I can't wait!
how was it?? do they require vaccine passes to enter to restaurants, bars, etc:?
@@Jcorrochano256 I was in Málaga in October, it felt very safe indeed. Mask wearing is very high and due to the good climate we were barely ever indoors. We are fully vaccinated and experienced no issues, they checked our vaccination status at the border. Things may have changed since October.
We’ll be there in less than a month can’t wait!
We recently visited Madrid for the first time. It is a stunning city! I can see now why you fell in love with it & Yoly of course! We stayed at the Barrio de Letras. Have you ever visited the restaurant La Sanabresa? The food was incredible and reasonably priced.
Ι'm visiting Barcelona and Sevilla in exactly one month from now - I will be fully vaccinated and will have the green certificate. I can't wait to visit Spain for 3rd time! :)
I have a home in Pego (between Valencia and Alicante). I just visited for ten days in early July 2021. Sure, there were a few differences from the norm, but overall it was a great visit and so good to be back in Spain!
Great video! I definitely think that nowadays is a good time, especially to visit the Barrios. Also, seeing Yoly pregnant has made me think you perhaps could do a video in the future about pregnancy or kids in Spain? I think different countries behave differently with kids, because for instance a friend of mine told me that, when she was visiting Copenhagen, she was very surprised to see people leaving strollers, sometimes with babies inside, at the door of pubs, and locals commented it was normal and not very accepted to enter a bar with kids. I think it might be interesting to talk about that topic, because (as I'm sure Yoly's case was as well), we Spanish kids were used to be at bars with our parents, even in the evening (especially during summer!), and even if our parents were having drinks and not just eating a meal. Perhaps that could interest your audience? Keep the great videos coming! 😊
