Sure you did. So how long did you live there? 6 months? A year?
Nah, a couple of weeks in Madrid and Barcelona. I'm a quick study.
A couple of weeks is practically the same length of time as a holiday. Madrid and Barcelona are the two largest cities in Spain. They're exactly the kinds of places one would travel to if one is a tourist.
Are you sure you've learned everything you needed to know how the quality of life in Spain by your length of time there, and by your choice of cities to travel to? What exactly do you know about their youth unemployment problem?
Well, I haven't expatriated yet have I? My main point in trying to quash rumors of Spain being some kind of impoverished hell hole where everybody is more equally miserable is because it flies so squarely in the face of what I've directly experienced.
