One of the favorite cities x all. VALENCIA Well cared for and very clean is the first thing you notice when you arrive. Famous beaches known throughout Spain, here you will find everything. Young people - older - Freedom for all etc. A city famous throughout Europe. An exceptional time. Quality food and very cheap. Good weather and its beaches. Good road transport service and very good highways (Free). By AVE (high-speed train) to Madrid --ALICANTE-Seville-Malaga-GRANADA. etc. Well-preserved highways throughout the territory. We have the best beaches in Europe with 800 blue flags (water quality-services-cleanliness). Its lovely people. COME AND YOU WILL BE CONVINCED. (Because we receive 80M tourists, he answers......)

[@realfan91]

Well to be honest smells like pee on most places and there are graffitis everywhere. Could be cleaner, but I like it so far.

[@stefancochrane2723]

Many thanks! After living here two years, we've visited most of these places - some several times. :-) Great list! One thing I've found is that the food here, compared to Montreal and NYC, is that the ingredients are much, much fresher. Orange juice (but, not from trees!), olives, bread, tuna pizza, tomatoes, and everything else is just fresher and better. Dishes are different, but even having a typical North American dish, with ingredients from here, would taste much better. One can understand why life expectancy is longer in Spain than in North America.

For anyone wondering about the orange trees: do not eat the oranges of the trees in the streets. That orange variety is not for eating, it is too bitter. If you go outside of Valencia city limits, there you will find the orange tree plantations, which have a different orange tree type, which is shorter, producing the famous Valencia's orange.

[@kennielsen3896]

Nice summary of where to take your guests when they visit you. I’d avoid Market Colon, but haven’t tried the restaurants there. I like exploring (stalking locals) and eating where they do. LOL. Plus when you interact with locals, they take you to the best places, and it’s usually good and cheap. Food looks great, but be careful otherwise you can gain weight quick if you eat with an American perspective. There is no way your wife is eating more than a bite or two of some of what I’ve seen her eat! LOL, she’d be 200 lbs! Maybe see you soon. Moving to Alcossebre in September.

[@ACoupleofNomads]

Hi Ken, this is Vicky. Thank you for watching our video as always. Market Colon has lots of expats but also locals, there are some great restaurants including Habitual (by Ricard Camarera), but the restaurants are pricey. Other places can be hit or miss but certainly a fun vibe to at least have a drink 😁And I like eating, you’ll be surprised how much I can eat 😅 Everything in moderation though. Good luck with your move!

Great video, but ... I am a Valencian, and I missed a visit to the El Palmar Island inside the Albufera lake and a boat visit to the lake, being one of the most touristic things to do. And if you read or watched some Blasco Ibañez novels even more. And also a visit to the south beaches, from Pinedo to Perellonet. And Alboraia's (at Els Sariers) orxata - north city frontier. All i pebre, and blanc i negre amb fabes i alls tendres. I hope to watch you enjoy those and other places and foods, in a next video "10 more things"

Planning a trip to Valencia in September. What district do you reccomend to stay in. Love your videos.

[@ACoupleofNomads]

Hi Emma, welcome to Valencia! If you are visiting, we would recommend either City center (or old town) or Ruzafa area. Depending on your preference. Ruzafa is pretty young & hip area, lots of cool restaurants and bars, many expats live there. Old town is clearly touristy but it’s beautiful, and you will be close to Central Market, Cathedral, etc. Ruzafa is about 20-30 mins walking distance from old town. If you want to be close to the beach, El Cabanyal is not bad but you will be further from the city center. Really depending on your preference. We have other videos showing different parts of Valencia, so they might be helpful for you.

Hi Nathan, you're welcome. We do not have either one of those videos but may in the future. Valencia was just ranked the #1 destination for expats in the world. Also health care here is fabulous and really inexpensive, like under $100 a month, no copay or deductible!

[@Sebastianx007]

@@ACoupleofNomads hmmm I'm in Spain now at the moment in Seville after a month and a half stay in Portugal which gets me to the reason for writing ... I was told Portugal is easy to get residency and although there weren't many Americans there sure was alot of expats from the uk mainly but still even for Americans its considered not as difficult as Spain I believe but I could be wrong let me know how easy it was for you 2 and also great video I'm buying my ticket now for Valencia then Barcelona after!

[@ACoupleofNomads]

@@Sebastianx007 Portugal does have a D7 visa, I’m no expert on immigration laws, but it seems reasonable to get. The main difference is the passive income requirement for that visa (a lawyer told me if you apply with just savings immigration “might” approve it) if you have a pension or retirement income, etc you would qualify. In Spain it can be based on savings and/or passive income. The process although bureaucratic is straight forward as long as you have everything your regional Spanish consulate requires, which is strangely different…so just make sure to look at the consulate’s requirements page for the consulate you would interview at! Enjoy 🇪🇸!!

Make a new video about, how and where paella was born, and where to go in Valencia to have a proper paella & rice dishes. Rice dishes...in Valencia.. are much more than dishes..it is something very, very, very, important for us. In fact, I always say; in Valencia you can have the best and the worse paella in Spain, lol. Why?, easy, paella is from Valencia, the rest, are cheap copies (sorry to say that, but Valencia people cry when we see what in the rest of Spain they do with paella). We have many tourist, and many places where to eat paella, but not all unfortunately are good places. But yes.. we, have the best places.. and... original ones. Willing to help if needed with this matter for a new video about paella & rice , :) . Congrats guys, love it!!!! By the way, I'll be in Valencia this September , lol.
