    I just found you and you took me all over Europe! Love it! I’m glad you reached your destination with no hassles and that you’re safe and sound. I just wanted to share this with you, when I make the chickpeas because I am Spanish, we never throw away the water, the aqua fava. But I do say drain the chickpeas and put the water in a sauce pan add the spices just like you said and wait until that water has thicken then I add the chickpeas and wait until it’s totally dry. What I get is chickpeas that are soft . The tahini dressing, OMG, where have you been all my life! I’m 73 years old who reside in sunny beautiful Florida USA. We came to visit Florida from the state of Maryland on the East Coast of the United States and once we saw the Gulf of Mexico, right then and there we decided this will be our new home. 28 days later we packed everything and we moved to Florida that was in 2013. So when I see you guys moving to Spain I’m with you!

    In Germany, there's usually no limit to how fast you can drive on the highway, but we have a rule which states that you should always drive on the right side when possible so when you don't do that, driving on the highway seems stressful because they are driving way faster next to you but usually it's a lot easier when you keep on the right side

    • @Lisa-yt3fs
      @Lisa-yt3fs 2 роки тому +1

      @@AlexandraAndersson yees because as there's usually no limit to how fast people drive there is a wider range between people who drive fast or more slowly and it's also a huge difference if there are three or two lanes. I experience it a lot myself and I always try to take the right lane so faster drivers can get by easily. Plus, we seem to be always in a hurry in Germany 😂 hope you have a great time in Spain ☺️🥰

That's the life I want, and hope I will make it happen soon. Lock down at home 49th day of shanghai now, and this country just banned us from going abroad unless necessary reasons. Really hope this ridiculus life here is gna put an end soon, and I can start making it closer to the lifestyle that really vibes with me. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR VIDEOS!!!!

    I lived in Orrefors, Sweden for 2 years. FAB country and people, but the 8 month winters with snow up to my eyeballs was totally brutal. Rubbery veggies all imported also not great. $7 a gallon for fuel in 1979 also awful as a student then on a meek scholarship. Can'''t imagine what gasoline costs now in Sweden.
    GREAT MOVE - you two are adorable! Lots of happiness to you in your new home. LOVE your channel Alexandra. Always uplifting and healthy content.

Very hard with no family or anyone that we knew around at the time but we managed to fit in and now we’ll be here for a long time :) challenging moving to such a huge country too!

    I studied abroad in Alicante in 2006 and I was vegan then, and there were almost no nothing vegan nor vegetarian in Alicante or Spain in general. I used the happy cow website too, but there were not many places. I remember my host family made me tofu and cauliflower lol. So, I did indulge in some Spanish tortilla with eggs, but I ate a lot of espinacas con garbanzos, patatas ali olí, salmorejo, pisto manchego, etc. soneyimes with egg because I felt I needed more substance. But good to know there are more vegan options these days in Spain! I miss Spain! Andalucia is my fave!

    It's easy for people to move from Sweden to Spain since they don't need a tourist visa or anything else since Spain is a part of EU. And then it's easy to move also when you are young. If this couple would be now in the 80sh or 90sh ok, I'm sure they would be happy to stay i Sweden where thay take good care fo the elders. At least they did back then when Pippi Langstrump was popular och saltkrakan pa 60 talet.
