In the USA (and Canada), I have visited NYC, Long Island, the northwest coast from Connecticut to Vermont (and Montreal), Florida and South California. Great Countries and great people. I wish to pay visits to other places, but opportunities are more and more limited as time goes by.
 
We, Europeans, feel the American landscape greatness overwhelming as compared to our more crowded and smaller Countries. Nonetheless, Spain is just a bit like North America in that, in a much smaller scale, there are open spaces, beaches, mountains, green lands, deserts, dry, rain, hot and cold whether.
 
If coming to Spain, do not hesitate to visit the inland and northern towns and villages

—apart from the well-known southern and eastern more touristic shores. In fact, I would not recommend the crowded touristic resorts of the eastern Spain but those of the northeastern Costa Brava as well as Barcelona, Valencia and the Balearic Islands. Excellent food, too.
 
OK, let's have the first lesson :
 
Joseph = José (Stressed as José)
 
Joe = Pepe / Jose (without accent, stressed as Jose)
 
And, to keep this post loosely related to the forum topic, I must say that Bilbao (including Getxo) was the 2001 Winner of the Europe Best Public Transportation Award.
 
Regards,
Jose

Jose, you will make scholars of us all.
 
When in Florida I hope you got to visit St. Augustine. Founded by your Countrymen in 1565, it is the oldest city in the U.S. So I guess we go back a ways!!

Love Cape Breton. Love Banff and Jasper.
 
Also love visiting the USA. I go there quite frequently. I do have some kind of connection with the USA. I lived one year in Chicago and my father was a 1958 MBA graduate from the University of Texas in Austin.
 
So consider me a good neighbor.
