Im from Girona and i live in Girona, for me its a perfect city. Specially for riders. But i also recommend you to learn catalan, because in Girona we speak more in catalan.

[@dzurisintube]

I think loads of people would be interested in some of the more nuts and bolts regarding how to make a lifestyle like yours work. I am assuming that there are lots of factors involved between family finances, sponsorships, side-work, etc. Girona certainly looks lovely.

[@workingguy-OU812]

I enjoyed learning about Girona. Could you perhaps give a few examples of the cost of living differences in a future video?

[@silviaramosmusic518]

Hey I'm from Girona, a small town called Hostalric. I'm so happy to have English people here hehheh. You all are so nice :))

[@Ballacks101]

Love Girona. I went for my 40th birthday to go to El Celler de Can Roca. Stunning.

[@ashleyburton8605]

I love Girona, It's a great place!

[@Epitome63]

Thanks. It looks wonderful. I completely see why you are there. It is beautiful and less than expensive. You don’t get that combination often. Enjoy.

[@miatamayocanoy3563]

If I could I would too! Stay well, stay safe and keep up the good vibes. Power on!!

[@Big2Planker]

Really looking forward to lockdown ending in Germany and exploring Girona. Been wanting to get down there for a few years now.

[@FortheLoveofCycling]

Im so thankful I came across your channel. Im planning to go there. I promised myself. Also other plans similar to yours. Thank you for sharing.

[@hactriathlonlifefitness1738]

Hello Keira, nice video. The neighborhood you started your ride seemed nice. Do you mind sharing the name? Thanks!

[@JoyJasonRides]

Yay we’re bike twins! Girona looks lovely 😊

[@wranglercycling6420]

What a lovely experience...!!!

[@supergrvlbros6503]

Nice! Now you are closer perhaps you can try to ride around Valencia. Gravel or road, it might be a pleasure to show you the mountains surrounding Valencia.

[@rudyelizondo1935]

Fun, looks very lovely there

[@glennoc8585]

Well Spain does have better weather and better housing for the money. I'm considering a bike tour of Portugal post covid

[@MrBJPitt]

I love love love that part of the world. Did 3 summer trips 3 years in a row once! Maybe it's a bit cold for seaside trips, but I also loved across the border, Collioure is as delightful as Cadaques.

[@markwhalley3859]

Hi guys, great video I’m heading out to Majorca at the end of May next year then heading over to Girona for more suffering on the mountains 🚴‍♂️🤣

[@MrBJPitt]

4:38 - so much better than the standard Catalan coffee I remember from 3 years ago!

[@MarcBDMD]

Great episode. Loved the ride around and day in the life format.

[@Shahnamah]

Amazing track 🚴‍♂️

[@mstrasser]

Really enjoyed this one. And it's making me miss Girona :( more of your doggo please!

[@samsosa4291]

I see you from Honduras!!! It's amazing to see you on spanish lessons...trust me you will love spanish. Estaré esperando más vídeos de tus clases de español 👌😁

[@tomjones7852]

What do you for work?

[@laurabartha606]

do you also work in Spain?

[@anitagracious2609]

How do one make right choice when it comes to housing! I have had bad luck! Too much noise and dirtiness. Hey if anyone reading this lives in Spain/ Girona and has any advice, feel free to reply to this. Thanks.

[@geoffjohnston1531]

Great reasons for moving. Enjoy.

[@TheDAMills88]

Common Jake, dont lie you love them Fen lanes really! Nothing beats that Headwind out and guess what, that same Headwind back in :D

[@JohnonaBike]

What is the traffic roads like for cycling......? do car drivers treat you well

[@joshschrader4732]

Do you and your husband still race and if so for which teams? Great vids! thx

[@fayegarnier6058]

Hi Keria, I just watched your video -- Girona looks beautiful! In the video you said you've moved but then talking about only staying there for a few months? So are you just staying there for your Winter training and then returning to the UK or somewhere else in Spain? Hope the Spanish is going well!

[@The1mars1]

I think she mentioned that she is planning to stay there for 3 months and during that time she would like to get conversational level of her Spanish. With her being British she can't stay longer that 90 days I think. Thank you Brexit.

[@smann3553]

How would typical rent be there? 1 or 2 bedroom?

[@smann3553]

How much....

[@ryand121984]

sick! more gravel rides at Girona!

[@oxirosmusic]

What about the mountain bike scene?

[@garryshirreffs9517]

Looks an amazing place to ride :)

[@Helcc]

What jobs do you do?

[@juancmunozr]

Girona es espectacular ! Y cómo van las clases de español ? Gracias por compartir los videos. Saludos desde Guatemala 🇬🇹 Well some spanish to keep polishing your español.

[@jaufro]

Just remember in Girona we speak Catalan, and many would argue that Spanish is an imposed language. Learning a word or two in Catalan goes a long way ;)

[@andeez4663]

I'm sure they will learn a few catalan words but Girona is in Spain and Spanish is the national language, everyone in Cataluña will understand them. They will also be able to communicate anywhere in Spain and most of latin America too.

[@fallyhag]

@@andeez4663 so you dismiss Jaufro’s comment with intentional rudeness or in error? Just asking...

[@MrBJPitt]

@@andeez4663 you clearly have never been to Girona. You'd not make any friends with that statement.

[@andeez4663]

@@fallyhag Me rude? Haha. Keira is making a great effort to learn castellano and Jaufro wants to tell her that it is an 'imposed' language? I'm quite sure that over the years she will pick up some catalan and may even go on to study the language but for now leave her alone to learn her castellano. Only 46% of catalans speak catalan fluently, while 100% speak castellano. She will also be able to use it in Madrid, Galicia, Murcia etc etc and Cancún, Buenos Aires and Santiago de Chile. As an Irish linguist who has taught English all over Spain (including Cataluña) since 2006 one thing I have grown to hate is language naziism. We need language primarily to communicate, the politics can come later. So for now Keira learn your castellano and leave the catalan nationalism for another day.

[@reimontube75]

@@andeez4663 👏👏👏

[@javito810]

Speak some spanish in the next video! Saludos desde Argentina 🤙

[@reimontube75]

Hola Keira. ¿Cómo van esas clases de español? No vale hacer trampas con google translate. :P

[@stevethorn2108]

Come to Canberra Australia ... the bike capital of Oz ... do yourself a favour

[@JohnonaBike]

I can certainly see why you moved there

[@thecrowfliescrooked]

GoPro?

[@nickpoole9643]

you said you plan to be in gerona for 3 months, why such a short stay?

[@Ballacks101]

That could answer my question about the visa. After Brexit, UK citizens can only stay for 90 days in any 180 period.

[@fayegarnier6058]

@@Ballacks101 They moved before December 31st I'm sure for the Brexit reason... but it was my question too!

[@cyclogram5937]

Que lindo video😊

[@lahyessam9725]

You could learn Spanish like I learned Tagalog (Filipino)by watching soap operas with English subtitles however I hit a snag when the tv shows were discontinued as the TV network did not pay their taxes in 4 yrs and the president said pay up you "as@-h%les " mga a@noa (Filipino) or pen%ejos (Spanish) they didn't so he shut down the network....your place looks muy bonita btw

[@jlcasabal]

Tour around Girona with your chpt3. :D

[@mikmx55]

Pop by us. Few hundred meters up the street. Love Equipe Guesthouse.

[@KeiraMcVitty]

I will do :)

[@Dischoir]

But isn't that catalan instead of spanish?

[@matthewsherrington4909]

I wouldn’t say it’s cheaper to live than the uk

[@olafk2297]

Less fog and rain than in the UK, and driving on the right side of the street

[@garymartin4928]

How is Brexit going to impact you guys living in Spain now?

[@MrBJPitt]

My guess is that is why they plan to stay 3 months - maximum tourist visa limit isn't it?

[@jls1337]

I mean, is says Giro in the name...

[@pantster9855]

That comment about at least it’s not 1 degree and snowing here didnt age well! 🤣

[@laurawenrickvinovin]

where do you take Spanish lesson??

[@Ballacks101]

Did you have to get a visa because of Brexit?

[@olafk2297]

Interesting question. Maybe if you are born in the EU, you can get an EU Passport?

[@HGZie]

Looks like they moved during the transition phase and gained residency which locked them in

[@andyhodge9703]

I want that dog.......well ok then one like it please

[@maguilecutty]

Late for ur spanish lesson? Then youre progessing well w it :)

[@ronsolinski9961]

You guys are too cute by half.

[@Mannfredization]

Can you stay to work in Spain in light of Brexit?

[@lukajovan9962]

I'm Alone 😍😥

[@RudyGold]

Are Spanish people as good looking as they say? I’m 50% Spanish 😂

[@glennoc8585]

Yes and no same as anywhere really.

[@anthonysears871]

Oh no! English accents. A reason not to move to girona!

[@daldaixart2458]

The best way to enjoy Girona is to know the catalan lenguage and the catalan culture. Don't be a guiri, please!

[@Rafa.veganism_bikes]

Glad to see at least you’re not falling into the annoyingly stereotype of a British couple that have been living for +30 years in Spain or Catalonia and can’t talk any further of una cerveza por favor. However, even though, I fully encourage you to get the most from your Spanish lessons, but expecting to achieve a conversational level in 3 months is extremely laughable, I’m afraid. And I can tell you, I came to UK confidently dreaming I could achieve a fluent conversational level in 6 months. It’s 12 years ago and still don’t feel I’ve achieved the level I wanted! Luckily enough I love ride in your miserable weather lol Good luck tou

[@KeiraMcVitty]

We are trying out best! and when I said conversational, I didnt mean fluent. More just able to have a bit of chit chat with our neighbours about the stuff we are learning :)
