Virgin River ("Un lugar para soñar"), en NETFLIX

Una enfermera quiere empezar de cero y deja Los Ángeles para mudarse a un remoto pueblo del norte de California, Virgin River. El nombre de ese pueblo da título a la serie, que en español se ha titulado de forma un tanto cursi “Un lugar para soñar”. Pero que no os engañe el título español, es una serie con personajes profundos que trata sobre relaciones humanas, algo bastante necesario en el panorama audiovisual de hoy en día.

Protagonizada por Alexandra Breckenridge, Martin Henderson y Tim Matheson entre otros.

Recomendable también por el inglés de la versión original, asequible y sin acentos demasiado marcados.
