Tom Malloy - Living in Spain
Spain
Приєднався 28 кві 2013
We live in a small town near Madrid. Why? Because Madrid has so much to offer. But we prefer the country so we bought property nearby. We live in a typical small Spanish town, off the beaten path - not in any tourist guides. We love that the town center has managed to maintain its original character.

Even though I was on crutches after fracturing my heel, we decided to spend time in Comillas, on the northern coast of Spain where we could enjoy the beaches and Folkomillas!
San Lorenzo Del Escorial
Переглядів 1074 місяці тому
This wonderful Spanish town established in 1563 is just 47 kilometers from Madrid. Here is where you'll find excellent food, beautiful views, and one of the most important Renaissance structures in Spain with a monastery/palace with 4,000 rooms, basilica and a town with a population of 18,500. It's worth the visit especially where there are several events taking place.

We made two brief stops on our drive from Madrid to Almeria - Jaén and Bailén. If you happen to be heading south by car to the coast, consider stopping here to break up the long drive and do some interesting exploring.

We moved to Spain about five years ago, and that's when I created a series of pen and ink illustrations to help me learn the Spanish alphabet. I hope you enjoy this video and will share and subscribe.

During our stay in Cadiz, we decided to drive north to visit the beautiful and historic city of Jarez de la Frontera. We could have certainly spent more time there, but we intend to return some day.

We love to explore new, interesting places and Puerto Sherry, on the southwest coast of Spain, was a beautiful place to visit. But sometimes we stay at rentals that are less than satisfactory and this stay was quite unique. If you have subscribed, THANK YOU!

Tapapies is an annual event in the Lavapiés section of Madrid where for 3 euros you can sample one tapa and one small beer. More than 100 restaurants and bars take part! We managed to get in a good walk as we sampled 5 different tapas. It was a great afternoon to spend with friends and wander through this interesting part of Madrid.

Indeed, stormcloud. Marvellous picture too.
Toro tiene el título de "ciudad" Madrid no lo tiene, es "villa"
Gracias senor 🥰
Very nice video 👏thank you.
@@dailydose2737 thanks!!
Merci 👍 c'est magnifique 💞
Super beautiful!
Thank you so much! Great video! :)
My home ... park and walk, that's what we do. Only drive in the new side of town never the old. If you are not from there, you will never get out. FYI you passed my house 3 times 😅
Not too many people can say they have had their own private bagpipe concert. Hope you all had a blast in Comillas!
Another great one Tom, thank you 🙏
Muchas gracias Tom. Nice little tour. I get the impression that Cabo de gata and La isleta del moro are quieter more laid back vibes compared to Almeria? What did you think. Thanks again
The comment about the altarpiece and Don Quixote is a joke, right?
so the jewish quarter was sheriffed by king Ferdinand 2 of aragon
Love the illustrations!
Love the posters!
Called in Guernica on my motorbike en route to Bilbao on 25 April this year. Didn't realise that was the day before the 87th Anniversary of the Nazi 'experimental' bombing of this beautiful town. Very nice lady in the Tourist Office asked me why I was there. My answer was to "pay my respects to the victims of that terrible day". She explained a lot of the detail, including the horrendous casualties. Very Very sad. Made even worse by fact that so many conflicts still rage today. RIP victims of Guernica, and all of today's pointless conflict. PEACE
Love the place, found completely by accident but so glad we did. you can stay in The Monastery of Leyre other side of the lake, very basic but a nice experience, still a working monastery where you can go to the chants, very worthwhile but don’t expect the luxury of the Parador!
Absurd to pay for viewing other peoples wealth that has been acquired on deeds we regard criminal today.
Best. Way. For. Spontaneity.
I appreciate the appearance of the ghost gang on L (Laberinto).
Great tour of the cities. Loved your take on the cafe for the hard of hearing.
Que bonito es Madrid con sus barrios tan variados y bonitos. Un encanto.😊
Que bucólico 😂😊
Muy bonita la casa y el entorno con tantos animales salvajes y no peligrosos. Los conejos de orejas largas son liebres, 😂
Las casas en EEUU, son de papel, se construyen en 15 dias, con pladur y tejas que vuelan. Cada año hay que arreglar el tejado. Lo mismo en Canadá, excepto los edificios de hormigon, piedra, ladrillo y acero. Los rascacielos o grandes mansiones y editicios oficiales. En España las construcciones duran de 100 a 1000 mil años.😊
El español , castellano, " auténtico" es de Castilla, como el inglés "autentico" es el de inglaterra.
Muchas gracia Tom. Has hecho un retrato muy bonito de nuestra querida ciudad 😘
Hmm, making bells isn't Spain's forte I think 😢
They rang almost non-stop until the church service began. Tourists were asked to leave unless staying for the service.
Hay muchos toques de las campanas en España, igual que en resto de Europa. Jaén es una de las 8 provincias de Andalucía y su capital, ciudad, también se llama Jaén. Esta provincia tiene el mayor olivar del mundo. El aceite de oliva es el petróleo de España.
Muy bonito video, gracias 😊
Que cidade bonita. Tem um pouco de tudo 👏👏
Jajaja, Que bueno. 😂😂❤ música preciosa. 😊 el entorno maravilloso una típica plaza Castellana. O extremeña ? 🤔😀
Ese barrio Lavapiés, era el barrio de las lavanderas. Mujeres que lavaban la ropa a los ricos de Madrid. Multicultural....🤔 También lo es USA. 😅
Tierra de cereales, quesos, vino...historia....belleza.
Es extraño que no tenga más suscriptores. Enseña la España de verdad.😮😊
Muy bonito reportaje. Le falta ver Aranjuez. El palacio y jardines en Madrid
Gracias por tener interes en aprender español, va bien para aumentar las neuronas. 😂 espero se recupere pronto.😊
San Pablo se cayó del caballo.....😊

Hi . I have got from seen your Channel. Your channel niche, and uploaded every good video, Congrats! I was finding your Channel. I visited your channel and watched some videos, the content is very good. But due to video optimization problems, the video is not getting viral and views, likes,subscribe and comments. Your problems need to be fixed. I'm a UA-cam Channel SEO Optimization Expert. So I know how to fix the problem.
Me encanta el vídeo Tom y tus dibujos, es obvio que eres un artista.
Muchas gracias por sus amables comentarios!
Perfect. It is basically a pronunciation guide. The problem starts when there are various different accents exist. In NL there are about 250 local dialects. My mother, a butcher from Tilburg, couldn't begin to understand the Eindhovens dialect spoken there. So she switched to Nederlands aka Dutch. PS The distance between Tilburg and Eindhoven is a mere 32km. I have a Brabant accent but I can't speak neither Eindhovens nor Tilburgs. 😂
It's fascinating that there are so many dialects. . Wow! We've actually visited Eindhoven. A beautiful city. It's always nice to hear from you, especially because you are the first subscriber to my channel.
Tom, Is there a way of getting in touch with you (not in a public forum like this) regarding tips etc for moving to Spain? (Assuming you’re ok with this and if not that’s totally fine) Salud 🥂
Go to Facebook where you can find me as Tom Malloy. We can take it from there. I'd be happy to share some tips about moving to Spain.
Great stuff as usual, muchas gracias Tom … 🇪🇸
You should have stayed during semana santa!! its the best thing about zamora
Thanks for the suggestion. Maybe we can make our next visit during Semana Santa.
@@tmalloydesign book your trip on advance because it gets all occupied quickly, maybe 4 months before semana santa
Wonderful video .😊
So glad you enjoyed it.
Hey Tom, sorry to see you’ve had an accident .. Hope you recover soon buddy 🥂
When you got the loan did age affect the outcome, im under the impression that they want the loan final payment be before your 70th birthday?
Hi Tom, my wife and I are looking to build our own house too. We are going to look at land close to Valencia next week. Do you have any tips on where to start with buying the land and how we would go around choosing a house to build etc?
I'd be glad provide some suggestions. You can go to my "about this channel" page and click on my contact link. Then choose the method of communication, such as email or WhatsApp. It's easier to share lengthy text or a file using that method. I'll start creating a response today and share that with you. Buying property can be tricky because, from my experience, the seller chooses a real estste agent to sell it through, and it may listed with just that one agent. The plot next door may be listed by another agent. They don't seem to share listings. We went to a few agents just to figure out who owned the property we wanted. The property we wanted wasn't even for sale, but the agent found the owner and only then was it put on the market. The town hall will not provide property owners names because, for some reason, it's not allowed, unlike in the US where you can go to city hall and look at the Plat maps, which include the property owner's name. By the way, WhatsApp is used A LOT in Spain for making free phone calls and texting. Even international calls.
Spain is so magical😊
