Very interesting video. How many days did you spent in Valencia?
My favorite city in Spain and one of my favorites in general. But after SEA, paying European prices is painful 😆
Great city ❤❤😊 thank you
I live in Bangkok and i'm really enjoy these videos. I'm starting to ask the question. If it wasn't for cost, is there another reason for me to be in Bangkok over a city like Valencia. The heat, pollution, smell, traffic, no walkability is getting to me. I just went to the grocery store on my bike – it should be a 5 minute drive, but i was stuck in traffic for 30 minutes barely moving. It's like that every day 😅
For you it was maybe underrated, but in Europe Valencia has never been underrated
Visited Valencia 20y ago and loved it. Love how your GF gives no F** you filming Haha
Welcome to Valencia, Joose! As a Valencian myself, I'm happy to see my city becoming more popular. If you're looking for blue water at the beach, I recommend Jávea, which is an hour south of Valencia city center. And if you're looking for a good quality paella at a good price, Casa Martinot is top-notch!
Dont sleep on Alicante
You could try Alicante abit affordable same vibe , but Valencia have it all one of the best cities in Europe
Wow, amazing content. In one word, it’s amazing. If your thumbnails are more engaging, you will attract more viewers and views. I am a thumbnail designer.

Valencia is a top place in europe. Biggest drawback its super hot in summer. You visited in the perfect time.
Spent last year 2.5 months in Valencia. Really great city!
nobody is moving there
Guessing the problem here is that Airbnb will be 2000-3000 euros a month to even try out living here. Doesnt seem worth it! Ive visited there too
Looks like an awesome place to call home !
sydney is better than valencia
