This ride shows three versions of a commute to school that we did about 150 times during the school year. There are a lot of factors in choosing. a commute, and I explore some of the decisions that are made to find a safe route. Our apartment was right next to Plaça de Mossen Sorell and our destination was the British School of Valencia (BSV).

My name is Jonathan MacMillan and this channel is a hobby of mine. I currently live in Alameda, Ca, and we visit my in-laws several times a year in St. Louis. We spent the 2021-22 school year living in Valencia, Spain, which explains why so many videos are from those three areas.

This video deserve way more views, it’s so well made. Valencia reminds me a bit when growing in Peru before moving to America. I really look forward to moving to Spain and integrating me there. Your son is so lucky to experience this and will give him a humble perspective of life

You are really kind for your compliment. I’m new to this, so maybe the videos will catch on eventually. I’m a high school Spanish teacher and I’d love to see all the Spanish speaking countries. Peru is high on the list! And yeah, my son may not appreciate our trip a lot now, but I think he will have fond memories when he is older. We LOVED our time in Spain and especially our home in Valencia.

Excellent content! I have had the idea of being there riding with my grandson to school in a perfect city, with a great quality of life. I think the same as someone who said that this video deserves more views.

That is really kind. I’m proud of the video, but my channel is pretty new. It’ll find its audience eventually. Sharing and liking the videos helps them find those folks. Thank you for taking the time to comment.

I enjoyed this video. Have you had a chance to compare biking safety in Barcelona as well?

Yes, a little bit. I made a three part series about a ride I created in Barcelona. Here’s a link: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/l5N4mb2nm5fKYas.html

We were just in both and our feeling was that we were safer in Valencia although we know Barcelona is trying to improve their cycle safety.
