  1. Really enjoying your summaries, although as I am hard of hearing the CC don’t seem to understand your accent when pronouncing names in a foreign language. It would be very helpful to have the names of the places pop up. I know this is more work post production, but it really helps those who cannot hear. I’m aware that I can go to the script and read them, but not so easy when watching it on tv. That would mean each video would take 3x as long to digest. Thank you ❤

  2. Just visited Madrid and had no choice about the time of year. August was the only month we could go. The good thing is far less people and traffic as well as the Landmarks do not escape the city for vacation. The only bad thing ( which might be big for many people) is you might have to eat at Taco Bell, Burger King, or have a pizza, as 12 places I had been recommended for eating were closed. If you can handle the greatly lessened food choice, not a bad time to avoid crowds.
