OUR STORY
We're Meghan & Matt, two travelers from the United States on a journey to travel 1,000,000 miles! For 2 years, we lived in our self converted van and traveled all over North America! During this time, we caught the travel bug, HARD. So we set a goal to travel one million miles! Now, we’re hiking, biking, driving, flying and even training around the world to discover as much as possible! Recently, we sold our van and packed up our lives into bags and boarded a one way flight to Europe, leaving behind no house, no car and not even a house/car. From now on, we will be living our of suitcases and traveling full time. How long is this lifestyle going to last? I️ guess you’re going to have to subscribe and follow along to find out!

Spain was my first place in Europe to visit when I was a kid. It was and will always be my favorite place to visit. So happy to see it is still delivering the same results now. 😊
Such a great place to start! We had the best time here
As an American from El Salvador, I can say that Spain is a wonderful country, I have been living in Barcelona for four months.
It really is a beautiful Country! And amazing city :)
That architecture is just incredible!!!
SO COOL!
Oh my god! Looks amazing! Spain is gonna be on the bucket list now 🤪
IT"S BEAUTIFUL!!!
Wow ! The views there are absolutely beautiful ! Have fun but be safe !
It was so beautiful! Thank you!
I'm so glad you two are having a good time in my country! I really appreciate this video ♥️ Welcome to Spain, enjoy!!
Gracias! We are so happy to explore Spain! Cheers!
the gothic quarter is stunning, i would just love to sit down and read a book there! also thank you for talking about the money side of things, it’s something a lot of others don’t really talk about.
I️ know right?! And we’re happy to! We definitely want to share as much as we can
Back in 1971 I travelled from my home in England a bit. You could hitch hike back then as well. I ended up in Barcelona and a Canadian girl I met (We were 21) from the next pension and I got jobs in a bar in the slums near the dock. We were chary about the work as most bar girls down there were also whores. But were well protected by our formidable boss.
I later discovered that these slums were the "picturesque" Gothic quarter as advertised on a brochure in the American Express office.
As an art student I had learnt about Gaudi but was not prepared for the amazing shock of seeing his beautiful curved buildings juxtaposed with standard rectangular ones. Just there as part of the city's architecture.
I now live in Andalucia where my son and his family emigrated to and love it. The architecture here is, if course, very different in style from that further north.
Justo wait until You come TO VALENCIA !!!!
Valencia looks beautiful!!
Barcelona is so beautiful! Lol, Matt totally understand the Game of Thrones vibe you are experiencing. Love, love, love the older architecture, esp the Cathedrals. So happy you both are so thrilled!
Barcelona is sooooo beautiful! We’re having a great time in Spain 😊
There are many towns and cities in Spain and Europe to visit where Games of Thrones was filmmed. 👍
@@javiervicianocuevas7684 so many! Seriously was our favorite show when it was on
@@Meghanandmatt welcome to Spain
@@manuelromeroarcos8160 Gracias!
I am from Barcelona and makes me very happy you had a great time! Cool video!
Thanks for watching! We really liked our time in Barcelona we’ll definitely be back someday!
Love it ❤ We haven’t been to Europe yet but I know it’s a vibe. Definitely coming up on our future travels
Omg you guys would love it!!
Great video, I just found your channel.
Enjoy your visit and adventures around Spain and Europe.
So glad you found us! And thank you! We are so happy to be here
Omg this is so exciting! I can’t wait for the next video
Thanks for watching!!! We had such an awesome time!
What a great start to our Eurotrip!
Wooooooo!!
"I'm so happy, I feel like my heart could fall out of my butt" hahahaha love it! Great video guys!
Haha it’s true!!! Thanks guys ❤️
Cathedral is the central church where the bishop seat is and there is usually only one and Catedral de Barcelona is the only one in the city.
Sagrada Familia is a basilica. When visiting the Catedral de Barcelona I recommend going up to the roof. The "Samsung billboard" just temporary and covers the scaffold (so they can earn a bit to help with maintenance).
Ah thank you for explaining this! Is the rooftop access something we will have to pay for? Sounds incredible and we will be back in Barcelona in a month
Fantàstic vídeo for a Fantàstic City ❤❤❤
Thanks! Barcelona is amazing! Can’t wait to visit again someday
I was in Barcelona for a month last summer, it wasn't enough to see everything, the sea, the museums (you can find free entrances online), sagrada familia, Park Guell, Mount Tibidabo, port, aquarium, Arc de Triomphe, Montjuïc Castle were amazing. I remember all this nostalgically and I want to go again
Definitely one of those cities you can’t fully see in a short amount of time but what’s great is that it’s easy to travel to so we can always come back! Hope you get to go again soon!
That morning shot from Day 2 🤌 beautiful guys
Thank you guys!
I recomend you, the Alhambra in the increíble Granada...good vídeo...👋👍
Thank you! We are actually visiting soon!
That was great!!! Always SOOOO MUCH, ground covered in each video. I would need notes just to comment.
Glad you liked it! More to come!!
Stoked on y’all adventures! Great video.
Thank you guys!
Hold on tight to that backpack and all that photo equipment!
We’re being careful!
excellent advice, Elaine :)
What a blessing that the Instagram-youtuber tourists limit their "enlightening" visiting experience to the city of Barcelona, that's why a majority of Barcelonians we live outside the city 😁The best well-kept secret is that the city is just for working and maybe going out for dinner, but the authentic paradise lies 20 km away from the noisy and crowded city, it's where the best beaches (Costa Brava), woods (Montseny), villages, ski slopes (Pyrenees) are.
Another thing is that good red wine in Barcelona is not "local", it comes from Ribera del Duero or Rioja regions, some 600 Km North-West.
Anyway, nice video😉Hope you enjoy the city!
Thanks! We had a nice time in Barcelona and have many plans to explore other places while we’re touring Spain
Well the wine thing is not just from outside of Catalonia. We have plenty of good wines and cava ☺️
@@NuriaSaladrigasLarroy Dear Núria, agree 100% when it comes to Cava. I'm not a particular fan of sparkling wines but the only one I truly enjoy (mostly as an appetizer before lunch or dinner) is a Cava. To me, a good brut nature Cava beats any Boellinger, Roederer or any other expensive Champagne that you may throw at.
When it comes to red wine, sorry but no 😛 I've had many (good and expensive) Costers del Segre, Montsants and whatnot, and they cannot compete with a Ribera, Rioja, or even Toro. And I'm not saying that Catalonia hasn't any good wines, there certainly are but on the same price level, they cannot compete with any of those from the rest of Spain.
Cheers from Aella 🍷
I have just found you (and your channel 😉 ) and I really like you. There are so many things and places you haven't seen or visited in Barcelona that... 🤯 Well, try to avoid summer time for coming back to Barcelona (very hot and millions of tourists everywhere). Anyway, Welcome/Benvinguts a Barcelona!!! 😉
So glad you found us! 100% agree with you! We will be back twice in may. Any recommendations are welcome!
Ahhh love this!! We can’t wait to go to Barcelona this year!! Hopefully we see you guys in Europe while we’re there! Oktoberfest babyyyyyy! 🍻
You guys will love it!!! Hopefully we can make it work :)
You could have also head to the Barcelona beach. Try Madrid, Segovia, Valencia and Malaga Spain. It wont disappoint
Yeah we wanted to go to the beach while we were there but we only had limited time. We will be back! And we plan on seeing all of Spain at some point!
Y el vino tinto español, no se olviden: es el más barato, sabroso, variado y de mayor calidad de todo el mundo.
¡Sí! ¡Estaremos bebiendo mucho vino tinto mientras estemos aquí!
Try to see inside the Sagrada Familia. It's so different to any other church You can see. It's wonderful!
We will be back in Barcelona in May and we will grab tickets! So excited to see inside
@@Meghanandmatt Do you need some tricks to avoid paying tickets to get inside? 😅
Well, one of them is... Sunday morning, 9-10 am, International mass...if you get into the church as a respectful "christians" 😏 you will not pay anything 👍
@@XaviVideoShow hah! We ALWAYS appreciate tricks to avoid paying 😂😂 we may try that next time 👍🏼
Spain is absolutely beautiful I'd love to visit 1 day. Did you guys change over your cell phone plans for you international travel trip?
Spain has been amazing! Yes we switched over to Google Fi. So far it’s been working pretty good overall. We’re gonna update after getting some more use out of it
España es diferente.....
Bienvenidos
Gracias!
We had a bidet years ago. The kids used to clean there teeth in it when they were young.
Talk about a potty mouth 😅
First time tuning in to the channel. Gonna be interesting to see where you guys end up.
As we're going to a similar trip for our vacation, during a month with start in early July, I have a question about this bag. As we never check in our bags and always choose the cheap under the seat option, will this bag qualified as such a bag?
Btw, our rout is start from Stockholm, then Lisbon, Madeira, Paris, Mallorca (Cala 'Dor, Cala Millor and Palma) and finally Madrid. Can't wait 😍
Hi! So glad you found us! That sounds like so much fun! Are you only bringing the one backpack or will you have other luggage? The bag fits under most seats! We have a rolling carryon suitcase as well so sometimes if they make us check like on budget airlines, it counts as our carry on item. It’s too big for Ryanair I️ know that!
You missed the best part… inside! 🤩
Would 1000% recommend.
If Croatia is on the bucket list, go see Ston/Mali Ston for fresh oysters, mussels and seafood.
It's also very quaint there with medieval walls surrounding the villages, a castle and just an idyllic landscape you will fall in love with.
Also: Try the Plavac Wine there. It's the local wine...
Thank you! We will save this. Croatia is DEFINITELY on the bucket list. Before they joined the Schengen, we had plans to spend a month there :(
@@Meghanandmatt And now you cannot stay that long in Croatia? I don't understand?
Oh and try the black risotto. ^^
@@Kivas_Fajo we only have 90 days in the Schengen and that’s already planned. We were going to go after and then they joined in January so we had to switch our plan. Sounds great!
So we can still do a month it’s just going to have to be another time
@@Meghanandmatt Try this:
For example, France has a bilateral agreement that allows U.S. citizens to stay an additional 90 days beyond the Schengen limit. You can enter from any Schengen country, stay 90 days in France, and then fly home. But the catch is you have to go home - you can’t go elsewhere. You have to leave Europe so you can’t use your time in France as a sneaky way to reset your Schengen clock.
Now, the France/U.S. rule is tricky. It’s based on a post-World War II agreement that was never canceled. Multiple French consulates told me yes, they thought this law existed but couldn’t tell me where to find it. A few visa services told me I was crazy. One consulate told me it was possible but only with a long-term visa.
BUT, after many calls, the US, Canada, and UK French embassies told me that yes, this law does exist and that yes, this is still valid. Then they referenced me to the French national archives.
"Still very olivey" haha loved the first dining experience! How are you guys adjusting to not being in the van?
Still lol! The first time trying food in a new place is always an out of body experience haha. We are doing much better adjusting than we did in the van! We do miss parts of vanlife though!
Be careful with pickpockets. Barcelona is full of them waiting for an unattended phone, backpack or pourse, specially in busy places and the Metro.
We’ve heard! Thank you. We have been alert since arriving
Welcome to Spain, enjoy your journey across the country. If you can, don't forget visit Madrid Valencia Sevilla Málaga Segovia Cáceres Valladolid Salamanca burgos Bilbao Santander Santiago bla bla bla bla.....
Thanks! We’re excited to be here. We’re going to explore as much as we can while we’re here!
A suggestion. Flamenco music has no relation to Barcelona but is typical of southern Spain, not in the No0rth of Spain where is located Barcelona. Setting the scene with flamenco guitar in a video about Barcelona is like putting country music in a video about New York or Scottish bagpipes in a video about London.
El norte de España es de cultura celta y el instrumento típico es la gaita . El flamenco es típico de la zona sur de España , Andalucía . 😊
Nosotros entendamos ahora. Gracias por explicando 😊 nosotros aprendamos mucho
La gaita es en Galicia y Asturias
Spain is quite different, north, Southwest, east or west. Galicia or Asturias have little in common with Andalucía or Extremadura. There are no flamenco or bullfights in the north (it's not our culture) Cider is the drink in Asturias, wine is not as common. Cataluña is not Spain for many Catalans. Others feel they are Spanish as well
@@avecesar4244 Nos sentimos no, lo somos.
@@FDODONIRE hagamos un referéndum…
Ahhh..you guys didn’t go inside Casa Battló and Sagrada Familia?!! It’s so worth it, there are so many things you can’t see from the outside. The interior of Sagrada is amazing and the sense of scale. You gotta start going inside European buildings.
We didn’t have enough time to get tickets. We will be back
Hi guys! Are you visiting Sevilla?😊 Be sure of Booking visiting places online in advance ❤
We’d like to but we’re not sure if we’ll make it on this trip! And thanks for the advice 🤙🏼
aahhahah As spaniard this is just a piece of Spain thats for sure if you enjoy it i recomend visit more places of Spain we are the second most visit country in world.
Enjoy it.
This is just the first stop! Excited to see more of Spain!
WELCOME TO SPAIN. BARCELONA IS SUCH A BEAUTIFUL CITY THAT YOU'LL CARRY IT IN YOU MEMORY, ALL LONG YOUR TRAVEL BE. AND I RECOMMENDED IN A SECOND TIME IN SPAIN DON'T LOSE MADRID, OBVIUOSLY, BUT SEVILLA, GRANADA, CORDOBA, CACERES, TOLEDO. CUENCA. SALAMANCA. VALENCIA, ZARAGOZA. BILBAO, VITORIA, SAN SEBASTIÁN. SANTANDER, OVIEDO. LA CORUÑA...AND THE PARADISE OF BALEARES AND CANARIAS ISLANDS. TO ENJOY IT ALL.😍🤩
Yes! We are already learning this! We can probably spend a year here and not see it all! But we will be here for 2 months and we are loving it so far! Thank you!
You should go to Madrid and the region of Andalucía!
Definitely will!!
the sagrada familia is always under construction because it is STILL not finished.. that's like two thirds of the cathedral when it's done.
Can’t wait to see it finished. (If that day comes in our lifetime)
I'm happy that you are enjoying my city
Thanks for watching! We’ve learned this, from the comments in this video but didn’t know it’s banned in Catalonia so, appreciate you for sharing. The funny thing is, the music platform I️ use provided these royalty free songs. The name of the songs are literally the places we went to and they’re flamenco. For example the song I used during Parc Guell is named “Parc Guell”. I’ll have to reach out to them to change that.
what do you think of the coffee size differences from what you are familiar with back in the States?
NEED MORE COFFEE 🥴
@@Meghanandmatt my wife says to order a macchiato instead of expresso
We’ll try tomorrow!
@@Meghanandmatt Cortado has more coffee in It and less milk, macchiato is not a term that we commonly use we would use café manchado which is literally stained coffee (most of It is coffee and only a stain of milk) and in your average bar they are not gonna understand, solo means only coffee and café con leche is 50 coffee 50 milk, we have other stuff like carajillo which is coffee with licour usually brandy😂
P.d i tho It was the coffee in bars not the capsule coffee 😅
@@Bippopbipjkididjwj this was super helpful Laura, thank you! We actually ordered Cafe con Leche today and LOVED IT!
Meghan any chance you could drop the link for those grey pants ;]?
They're from Athleta and on sale at REI right now! app.rockporch.com/Product/ProductPage/HY3PLKYJ4p?r=1
Why didn't you enter the holy family? It's really sublime...It's beautiful outside but inside you're speechless...
They need to visit the south of Spain, Seville, or the Alhambra in Granada
We’re in the south of Spain now and loving it
@@Meghanandmatt ¿y qué tal comprender el acento andaluz?
@@ignacioheredia9599 todos los acentos de estos regionales diferentes es que un idioma nueva para aprender 😅 cuando yo aprendo uno, está tiempo para aprendo un otro
You didn't see the interior of La Sagrada Familia?
Not this time, we were limited on time and wanted to get the most out of what we could do in the one full day we had
How did the locals treat you?
Everyone we’ve met, talked with, and dealt with in the last 2 weeks has been very friendly
🤘🤙🧡
🇪🇸💃🏽✈️
Me gusta las cuidad es de madrid y Sevilla Andalucía
Nosotros vamos allí un día!
If you thought a 365 cafe (which is like the fast-food equivalent for cafes here) was good, you would totally love a nice quality jamon serrano sandwich :)
Got any good recommendations where to get one?
@@Meghanandmatt look for a place specialized on jamon, there are few on tourists zones, the easiest to identify are Enrique Tomas, there are a lot and they are pretty good. There's even one at the Tibidabo theme park on top of Barcelona :)
@@pizzaipinya2442 we’ll keep an eye out for when we go back! Thank you 😊
Gaudí accompanied by flamenco is like the belvedere palace in Vienna accompanied by trash metal stuff.
BTW Barcelona is the capital of Catalonia. Sorry, I love culture !
Entre andaluces y descendientes de andaluces, en la comunidad española de Cataluña, superan el millón de personas. El flamenco es tan catalán como lo son, Rosalía, Peret, Miguel Poveda y Carmen Amaya. Y la sardana moderna, es tan andaluza como lo era su creador José María Ventura Casas, natural de Alcalá la Real, pueblo de la provincia de Jaén. .
@@angelleon7528 As you actually know I wasn’t speaking about that. Not only do I adore flamenco music but also I know quite well (professionally) several flamenco styles (“palos”). But flamenco music doesn’t belong to the Gaudí style. That’s why I laugh at that senseless combination.
There are great flamenco artists in Catalonia, but also great jazz, rock and classical artists !
Data ? New York is full of “latinos”, Buenos Aires is full of italians (“tanos”), Catalan language is closely related to the French Occitan language, the “rumba catalana” was also nicely boosted by the argentinean Gato Pérez and Barça FC was founded by a Swiss man, and Gaudí was put to jail for speaking in Catalan to a Spanish civil guard, and, and, and…………
The world is what it is and so is Catalonia. I love education and don’t want to say what Moldova, Kosovo or Scotland are, for example. It’s up to them, respectively.
You didn't see Casa Batlló, Pedrera, Recinte Modernista Hospital de Sant Pau, Tibidabo, Temple d'August... missed a lot of places to see :(
Most of the places are at Raval/Barri Gòtic. You have Poble Espanyol too... if you come here tell me and i show you the city, i'm studying tourism guide
We only had one full day here so we did as much as we could
@@Meghanandmatt Most of them are near from Plaça Catalunya ))
Game of thrones' scenaries: The Atarazanas(medieval shipyards) of Seville (the cellar where Jaime and Cersei died) the Alcázar(Moorish palace) of Seville [Dorne] roman amphitheater of Itálica (10 km, +- 5 miles away from Seville... And birthplace of the two glorious Roman's emperors ;Trajan and Hadrian) (place of Dragon's dig scenario of the ending episodes)
Oooh thank you for this!
@@Meghanandmatt as say on Andalusian accent :¡ de ná.!
Una duda. Cuando en el minuto 1:04 dices "Americans", no se si sois "argentinos", "cubanos", "chilenos", etc. Yo pensaba que "América" era un continente, pero seguro que estoy equivocado. ¿Me lo explicas?
North America and South America are continents. America itself is not a continent. When anyone in the world calls someone an American, they’re talking about people from the United States of America
Sabeu que si voleu veure Espanya i parts més autèntiques podeu anar a altres ciutats i regions com Andalusia?
¡Nosotras iremos a Andalucía pronto!
@@Meghanandmatt hiding sarcastic sentence of a independence support (Spain=Andalusia on foreigns minds, so, if Catalonia it's not Spain on independence mentality this guy are noticing that don't confused Catalonia with Spain and search the main Topics abroad. That's it, Andalusia, including the flamenco music.
A subtle way of telling you that you are confusing Catalonia with Spain and that you do not use Spanish music (=Andalusian) to set Catalonia.
It’s been like 100 years and Sagrada Familia STILL under construction.
Il duomo in Milan lasted more than 600.
Wonder if Gaudi lived to finish it, if it would be completed by now 🤷🏻♀️
@@Meghanandmatt, it's an expiatory temple, so It has to be built on donations only. Gaudí knew It would be completed long after his death. In fact, he died at 73, wich was quite an old age for his time.
@@robert111k ah ok, that definitely gives context to the long build
La ciudad mas bonita de España es Granada
¡Pronto estaremos visitando Granada! ¿Tienes recomendaciones de comida y cosas que hacer?
@@Meghanandmatt Granada es famosa por sus tapas. Platos típicos andaluces son los flamenquines, el salmorejo, el gazpacho, el rabo de toro, el "pescaito frito", el adobo y muchos más, la andaluza es una gastronomía muy rica y muy variada... En Granada hay que ver la Alhambra, la Catedral y la Capilla Real, el barrio del Albaicín y sus miradores donde podréis escuchar y ver bailar flamenco.
Is she filipina?
Vietnamese and Chinese 😀
Pon subtítulos porfavor
Creo que tu usas subtitlos en tu página. En la abajo del video, debe un opción por subtítulos
Americanos no, norteamericanos o de EEUU. Que América es muy grande.
La Sagrada familia, puede que que sea la más alta. Pero la más grande ni hablar, hay varias más grandes.
Gracias para explicando
Barcelona is not the city of long ago.
Barcelona is not Spain, it's Catalunya. Don't get confused.
Catalonia is Spain. Of course It is. Spain is a country made up of several regions and kingdoms. Btw, Catalonia is not even one of those but a part of one of them, the Crown of Aragon. Btw, Leonardo da Vinci was not from Vic and Miguel de Cervantes was not called Miquel Sirvent.
Barcelona es España y aunque a ti no te guste, eso no tiene remedio. Tú eres tan español como Barcelona, pero si no te gusta serlo, tú si puedes remediarlo, lárgate y adquiere otra nacionalidad (la catalana no te la van a reconocer en ningún lado. No existe). Los diez apellidos más comunes en Cataluña son los españolísimos, García, Martínez, López, Sánchez, Rodríguez, Fernández, Pérez, González, Gómez y Ruiz, aunque pronto entre ellos se va a intercalar otro tan poco autóctono de Cataluña como es el apellido Mohamed.
@@angelleon7528 The Spanish ultra got upset ?. Drink a tila, man.
Barcelona is not Catalonia, es Tabarnia. ¿Que crees que en Barcelona no se come tortilla de patatas?…pues eso.
@@Sebastian_Almiron ¿No es la capital del país catalán? Aunq sea la población con menos catalanes del "Gran País de los Seres Superiores"...
Your accent doesn't sound like american english at all.🤣
That’s the first time we’re hearing that lol there are different accents in America though.
la historia de América hicieron los espańoles ....no saben su historia
Every American knows that Spain conquered the Americas
@@Meghanandmatt la verdad no todos incluso gran parte dela cultura del Cowboy todo ese viene de españa.la primera conquista en america no la hizo US sino españa.. No lo digo en mala onda somos parte de toda esa historia..
Barcelona is overhyped. Try Zaragoza, Burgos, Bilbao, San Sebastian, Salamanca, Cuenca, Santander. You're just regurgitating the same story so many others have done. Too much exuberance and superlatives. Go find the real Spain. The largest cathedral in Spain is in Sevilla. Do some homework before you opine. I would advise you that just outside Madrid and Barcelona is a place called Spain, now go find it. Put a town called Riglos, Aragon on your itinerary.
This was only 2 days of travel in this video. All the flights in from the states will go direct to Madrid or Barcelona so it’s inevitable that every tourist begins in one of those cities. We’re here for 2 months…
Juan I thought exactly the same. Thank you for saying it out loud. Good feedback for them as they claim to be a travel vlog. And the amount of superlatives just to describe the most overdone stereotypes of BCN was indeed a little disappointing as you say. They just got started so I believe it's only going to improve.
First of all i think Barcelona IS an increíble city, but, i hace to mention something i noticed, many americans think of Barcelona first when visiting Spain,( ok you have many THIngs that are amazing) but i dont really understand that obsesión with Barcelona, Madrid IS much more beutifull in mi opinión and there are a lot more THIngs to see and experince or even some cities like Cartagena, Astorga or Cadiz, the catedral of León has the biggest stain glass in the world, that no many people care of but are truly amazing despite their size.
I think you’re right! We’ve been to 3 Spanish cities since this video and much prefer the local vibe of some of the smaller places. Getting to Barcelona is much easier for the US and one of the cheapest cities in Europe to fly into so I think that is a huge appeal to many American travelers who are limited on their vacation time. We’re excited to continue to explore more of this beautiful country!
9:44 That "Catalan-style" flatbread is not something Catalan, even though they promote it that way. It is an Andalusian recipe. The Andalusian tomato stocking is based on the traditional Andalusian breakfast, which is the Antequeran muffin as the piece of bread to which olive oil is added, either with or without garlic, and to which crushed tomato is added. Usually ham or cheese is added.
Interesting! We’re just going off of what we were told by the server. We’re excited to learn more as we continue to travel
Si leen esto los catalanes se van a cabrear. Es su "orgullo" gastronómico nacionalista...
@@avecesar4244 en realidad tiene su origen en el imperio romano cuando se ponía aceite al pan. Luego desde Italia, Francia o la costa de levante español se ha comido pan con tomate en distintos estilos y es difícil establecer un "origen puro".
@@Meghanandmatt It actually has its origin in the Roman Empire when oil was added to bread. Then all over from Italy, France or the view of the Spanish East Coast, bread with tomato has been eaten in different styles and it is difficult to establish a "pure origin".
Dude, don't make things up. In Andalucía you don't even have the tomatoes breeds needed for our pantumaca (I know because I lived ten yours in Huelva and I missed a good "pa amb tomata" like crazy, what you do with grind tomato is not even close).
... according to an article by Lugaris, the majority of the buildings in the "barrio gótico" of Barcelona are not gothic but neo-gothic (built in the late XIX and early XX centuries) ... so is it fake ... ??? ... draw your own conclusion ... it reminds me of Disney World ...
Es un error poner música en el video de flamenco, eso es propio de Andalucía, no representa Catalunya.
Ahora lo sabemos, después de estos comentarios, gracias.
Eso siempre ocurre ya sean videos de Galicia, Valencia, Madrid o Cataluña...😂
BARCELONA IS NOT sPain
The flamenco music used in this video, does NOT fit AT ALL!! Flamenco is ANDALUSIAN not CATALAN !! Come on…..🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️ it is so uncultured and disrespectful to Catalans…
Ha ha another butt hurt Catalan nationalist playing the victim. They are in Spain and the music is Spanish, get over it
Son extranjeros , es lógico que no sepan . Además en las películas y en muchas cosas , ponen el flamenco y los toros como algo representa a toda España , no es así , pero ya fuera de España es lo que creen . Así que explicalo con educación . Yo tampoco se cosas de muchos países y me creí los tópicos que veía en la tele y otros lugares .😅
C’mon Spanish music can be played in any Spain vlog. Chill.
@@jambroqc you dont know what you are talking about. Flamenco belongs to ANDALUSIAN culture. It is specifically ANDALUSIAN, not SPANISH as a whole. In any other spanish region this culture is not a thing and using this music to describe a trip in Barcelona is utterly mistaken!!
Los catalanes soléis ser irrespetuosos con todo el mundo, salvo con vosotros mismos, que siempre os sobrevaloráis. Están en España, y están en su perfecto derecho de poner la música española que más les interese. ¿ O también les vas a imponer la música que tienen que poner en SUS videos?
Barcelona is probably the worst example of what Spain is (not talking about nationalism, but mass tourism and loss of identity). Anywhere in the country you would get a more authentic experience.
I get that. It’s probably similar to if you were to visit the US and only go to Times Square in NYC. We plan on visiting more of Spain, but since Barcelona is where we flew into, it’s the only place where we can have a first impression. We’ve been to 3 other cities since this video and all have had a much more laid back and authentic experience which is what we’re looking for while traveling
Quin horror! Sempre amb música flamenca i de guitarra! 🤯🤯😡 la guitarra i el flamenco és típic d’Andalusia! Barcelona està a CATALUNYA!! NO GUITARRA I NO FLAMENCO!! 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
¿No rumba ni gitanos de Gràcia? ¿No Santa Coloma? ¿No Sant Adrià del Besòs? ¿No L'Hospitalet?

🤣🤣 es que la música de sardana, no pega en nada. Ni para hacer videos de parodia o humor.
