From village to village/ From town to town Explanation: That would be my suggestion. Hope it helps! :-) -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2002-01-12 22:18:10 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- In case Hazel is correct, I\'d like to add that maybe \"from hick to hick\" could be correct if \"pueblerino\" is supposed to be negative. :-) -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2002-01-12 22:29:43 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Also, from hillbilly to hillbilly. That\'s colorful! :-) -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2002-01-12 23:38:49 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- One last note... if the text is referring to towns and not people, and if it\'s supposed to sound offensive, you could say \"from one hick town to the next.\" Reference: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=%22de+pueblo+en+pueblo%...
