loud music is rude,even if we,spaniards,have a higher tolerance level than other countries and you have the right to tell the guy playing loud music to stop it

foreigners trying to speak spanish is OK shows intent to integration,no problem with that

Thank God for the music.

staring at you has an explanation,you look great

Where have you ever seen a toilet in the metro here?? No public toilets at all, that’s really awful

Social Security cannot keep the same data as Homeland Security. Bureaucracy in the US is horrid! And offices close for no reason!

Doctor! Come to Alabama and get a doctor’s appointment: 2 months later! And that while paying $400/ month for insurance!

Americans are shocked by everything as Soon as they get out of their Bubble.

Muy en general y más antes que ahora,que hay una mayor globalización... los países que eran grandes en tamaño y población...esa población,no tenía demasiado interés en aprender otros idiomas..pero sí,los más pequeños, para ellos era una necesidad ...por ejemplo,España comparada con muchos países de Europa central de menor tamaño y siempre políglotas..En este país además pasamos por un periodo de autoarquía en el que se intentó lograr valerse sólo por nosotros mismos,autoabastecernos y para eso no hay necesidad para aprender otro idioma, teniendo en cuenta que además,España es muy diversa interiormente no sólo en su gente si no en sus productos, también.Los españoles consideramos que no tenemos suficiente nivel de inglés porque nos hemos subido a ese barco muy tarde y somos muy autocríticos y exigentes con nosotros mismos.Las nuevas generaciones son distintas.El dejar de ser un imperio y la pérdida de las colonias pasó factura a nuestro espíritu...Nos dió un fondo pesimista,nos hizo muy autocríticos y afecto mucho a la autoestima a las generaciones pasadas..

I agree with you about everything you said, but one of these things is actually an advantage. What you find as "inconvenience" is actually a beautiful thing, if you think about it. Instead of going to Walmart or Target that "has everything," and is everywhere the same, it is actually better to go to the smaller stores. You get to meet different people, usually people who actually own these stores and are more likely to be helpful to you, you get to support the local economy, instead of Wall Street, and you get a little exercise too, in the process. Is it "inconvenient"? Yes, it is. It also is more expensive. But you are gaining so much more in other ways, that I think it is worth it. It gives the country and its localities their special color and grace that the US does not have.

Es que eres se EEUU, es normal que viniendo del tercer mundo no te adaptes a algo diferente

subtitulos en español por favor

Nice, vídeo, nice Commentarii about Spanish culture, Spain it's a wonderful country to live, thanks and Regards from Barcelona.

2:02 People might be accepting of how and where others work, but not of non Europeans, especially if you're not white. Anyone who says so otherwise is telling you bs.

I saw the colour you've talked about in Miami, this art deco building I loved them. Maybe due to the Spanish influence

Riñoneras we call

"Super" es un latinismo.

Girlll not u comparing Spanish tacos to chipotle here in the states 😂😂 you needa go to an authentic mex place for good tacos, not chipotle !!

No one seemed too bothered by a loud phone. More like from someone who is already so rude you can't expect a reasonable response if you call them out.

Spain is a great place to visit, but I don’t like the culture much. I married a Spanish girl, been to Spain dozens of times, I know Spain well. Their rude waiters, slow service, terrible attitudes are epic, and insulting. Most things created here are half assed, Mickey Mouse, and their customer service is backwards….the store owner is king, customers are peasants. There is rarely service with a smile. I have worked projects in Spain too…they are generally lazy, slow workers, not so motivated. If you move here, you must be a party animal to be happy, but even that will get old.

Subtitulos en español . Please

It also depends in the part of Spain you live. For example in the Basque Country you have no problems for scheduling a medical appointment online. Maybe the closest thing to big convenience be store it's El Corte Ingles or Eroski. With toilet paper it's easier to be lucky in cinemas and coffee shops than in bars. For burocracy always consult the regions calendar beforehand. About transport I've never experienced in Bilbao the lack of space in the subway as in London.😂😂😂

I'm going to give DIFFERENT parts of Spain a few more chances (because of the weather, or, rather, to get _away_ from the soggy Irish winter), but yeah, I've just been there for the first time in my adult life and it was utterly impossible. If anyone knows anywhere that's warm and dry in the winter but basically has northern-European social norms, I'm all ears. (There's Gibraltar, but that wouldn't work for the way I travel due to its size (and it's probably full of retirees too, another impediment to doing cocklodging).)

❤❤❤❤❤❤

Change your doctor. There fixed. You had a very shitti* doctor. That never really happen to me. The bank thing is annoying for everyone. They only work mornings so if you work mornings you cant just go... and i have had to send my own mother in my place a few times fot that reason Ive heard that many of the food they sell in America is ban in Europe so thats why u wont find it in Spain. It has to pass many health tests... cant remember what its called. So you wont find most things you look for.

Tacos and kebabs aren't Spanish so you lose brownie points there.

I cannot explain my reason for learning Spanish. It has been almost a lifelong interest for me. When I was a kid the Nextdoor neighbors were a Mexican family and I was fascinated listening to them speaking Spanish. But I had to wait until the 9th grade before I could start learning Spanish. My first year I got the Spanish Award and that really inspired me. Spanish was offered for only two years then. After discharge from the USAF I enrolled in junior college and majored in Spanish and then moved on to university for two more years of Spanish. Since then I have learned much more “por mi cuenta” as they say. I haven’t had a lot of experience speaking with native speakers because of my timidity. I have let so many opportunities pass by. Internet is amazing. I’m sure I would have done much better if we had had internet in the days when I was in college. Now I watch videos and listen to podcasts and there is a lot of Spanish on Facebook. I’ve always dreamed of Lu bing in Spain to improve my Spanish by being immersed in the language but that was not to be. I married a woman from República Dominicana expecting that we would be speaking Spanish at home but not so. She prefers to speak English. Now I practice speaking Spanish to myself. I could write a lot more on this subject but I know this is already too much so I’ll stop now. Llevo casi 63 años aprendiendo español pero todavía no puedo decir que lo domino.

I think your comments were balanced and quite fair. I’ve been living in Spain for coming up 20-years now and it is different from say the UK where I’m from. It’s a beautiful country with an incredible history but can also be extremely insular. Older people in particular haven’t travelled outside of their country like ever and believe that everything Spanish is the best. It’s very much a case of us having to adjust to the Spanish way of doing or thinking. I think that we extranjeros are more tolerated than welcomed. It’s a very insular country and slow to change. Just my opinion of course and like you I love Spain and my life here.

Spain and many other places are family friendly including children.

Where you teaching American or English as it’s not the same.

My ancestors are from Spain I was never taught how to speak it

Spanish men think they are elegant pigs to dine with.

dios existe, no lo dudes nunca, a mi tambien me ha regalado cosas que le pedi y me las concedio, ten fe y un abrazo para ti.

Heey, I disagree with some, i think we don't wear the bag in the back because it is rude and it takes more space than in the ground. I've never been stolen and I don't care at all where i leave the phone. It is extremely safe. And about the gym clothes I have never seen that, I think it is completely normal to dress however you want even with swimsuit. Also I find weird that someone offers you a flower for free, never seen that either. Spain has bad things but I definetly think those are not true hahaha, at least in madrid

If your level is intermediate, everyone is going to give you a chance. I said one...😂

Obviously you went to Madrid, in Gerona we all wear shorts all summer everywhere.

Never paycash for property and always use a lawyer where big money is involved check all spanish deeds using an interpreter never take any body's word for anything in spain check it out when I didn't I nearly came unstuck I was just luckey.

Hi Morgan, great comments....like your style....and insights...all helpful and resonate with me...thx jonathan....

Part Two: I can say that Spanish women can be beautiful and delicate and feminine. Truth. However, for me to go beyond that is out of my league. The men however are WHY I´m obsessed with Spanish. Keeping it as polite as I can, and having asked not simply Spaniards but AI, it's true that most Spaniard men don't wear underwear and are uncommonly blessed. Also, they tend to wear tight pants and have thick hairy chests which, they button starting at the bottom of their chest! Add the fact they have the most gorgeous faces of any race with stunning eyes and, he could be fat. Who cares! I mean when you got all THAT going for you, the extra weight is just as sexy! My point is, I think they have added some pounds but, they have other assets which...anyway, Spanish men are more delicious than the food. Finally, the language. When I truly try to master the accent, which is my thing, they get enthusiastic about it. To a Spaniard and to me, not trying is a clear signal of arrogance or stupidity or both. Brits and Americans both SUCK at trying and their arrogance shows in their lack of trying. The vowels A, E, I, O, U are NOT NOT NOT the same and I personally won't speak to or listen to a person who doesn't try. I simply won't. Spaniards are probably even worse and I don't blame them. In fact, I wish Spaniards would learn to tell Anglos to F off with English!

Why is this 58 year old gay guy so concerned about you and your channel? I don't know. I consider myself a masculinist on top of everything else but, there is just something...beautiful, non-offensive, adventurous I would want for my daughter if I ever had one, which I didn't. Okay, so, question number one, answer from the expert: Take a small paper bag, crush it until it's soft, put two raw eggs in their shell in it and look at it. Huevos. ¡Hola huevo! Yep. Me cuesta un huevo a decírtelo. Question two: I have a Spaniard friend in Poland who is straight but, he jumped at the chance to come and live with me, bedroom implied, because...chick, life is hard and time is ticking fast. I´m married and I don´t do that but...imagine a world where you see all these beautiful things, and your very culture is based on having a house, Estoy CASADO, right? You meet these Americans like me who earn $120K a year and you never will in Spain or Europe. Things cost just as much but, you can't hope to have them. THAT is the dream. I WILL find a brother in Spain and bring him here, and let him do what we've done: Earn the money to retire. I want that for a Spaniard without asking for anything in return. I've been so selfish all my life. The US is a cultural vampire, a corruptor, and I was once a Patriot saying this but, evil. We have sold everything of value for money. They have everything of value except money. It sucks. About the loud. The #1 complaint of the long list of British complaints is «Spaniards are loud». They are loud AND, the young ones like to throw up on buses and stuff because THAT is what the Anglos do in Spain. Payback, sort of. When they get stupid enough to kill themselves by jumping out of hotel balconies like the Brits well, I quit.

Grabaste este video en el 6 de diciembre 2,020 casi seis meses antes de yo empezar a estudiar en el 1 de mayo 2.021. Solo tarda en llegar los 27 meses hasta que me hice fluido a nivel C1 pero, la verdad es que estudiaba entre los 4 a los 7 horas cada día. He desarrollado una condición psicológica se llamó síndrome del impostor y me cuesta mi carrera como ingeniero de redes avanzados. Pero con los limones hacemos la limonada, ¿de acuerdo? Tuve el tiempo y me lo aproveché. Mi grande obra durante esta época ha sido mi léxico--Una colección de 14.000 entradas en contexto total, verificadas y sorteadas por IA, algunas 5.000 horas. ¿La quisieras? Una de las cosas que quiero avanzar en este mucho es el español y por eso no cobro ni jota por el trabajo. Todo ha cambiado en la vida ahora desde el 1 de mayo 2,021. Ahora, cuando nos jubilemos, la mitad del año vamos a pasar entre Cork y Málaga. Tengo que regresar al trabajo en el 2024, damn it! Sin embargo, a los 58 años, voy a quedar el español conmigo para siempre. Libre para todos pero no para ellos menos en edad de 17 por favor. No es para adolescentes.

Welcome to socialized universal healthcare which benefits no one, costs everyone and you can't get care even if you're willing to pay for it. Another failure of socialism. US: ¨you could lose your house!¨ Socialized medicine: ¨You can lose your life waiting!¨. I feel ya on the AC! I'm gay so, having men rub into me and paw all over it is AWESOME! No issues with personal space. I got touched more by straight Spaniards than a full night at a gay bar! It is weird having a Spaniard put his hand on my arm and leave it there while talking to me. I mean weird like, cool but, not cool because I'm married and he makes me wish I wasn't and self-control dude! self...contr...ah, hell with it. Tell me that story again Ignacio.

Brief me and then, you. I'm always the one getting shouted down because I have a super low tolerance for American stupidity abroad. I thought I was going to HATE your video and, I loved it. My American loyalties fade where Spain is concerned and I particularly resent the cultural destruction and corruption the inferior English Language inflicts on Spain and the world. I´m natively American and I´ve just had enough with the love of money being ¨a great thing¨! Onto your video. GREAT JOB! Respectful of Spain and Spaniards. LOVE THAT. The British are the worst but first only over Americans with the ¨So, what do you do for a living?¨Rudest, stupidest, meanest, most competitively arrogant question to post to someone you don't even know! If someone wants to volunteer they are an advanced network engineer then, that´s fine. When we come to understand that we're able to earn 3x what they do that phone on the table becomes $3,300 instead of $1,100 and you can see the temptation. Again, you were totally respectful. Thank you for representing Angloparlantes as well as you do.

Dude those eyebrows 😳

I just found you. I like the way you present your stories. I lived in Spain but like you most of the people I hung out with spoke English. Keep it up.

Donde estas? Morgan....😢

Hmmm I guess us Mexicans got these cultural trates as well from Spain like the the high volume and partying late lol also the high fences and we have the same saying 😂

We don't call webos to everybody don't touch my cojones we don't care where you from are you asking and we move my our asses a little bit more so we don't get so fat also food is more healthy here

I mostly agree with what you said except for the getting lost part: unless you're in a dangerous neighbourhood, you'll sure be able to ask literally anyone and we will help you! Spain's one of the safest countries in the world regarding violent crimes (cause if pickpocketing was counted... xd) Oh yeah, and like people point out at the comments, the "being well dressed" is only for some people, lots of us just take the first thing in the wardrobe hahah. Aaaaaand we don't talk about salaries because really nobody cares :)
