Two simple questions, the more detail the better

What is a "Caserio"? Is it like a hotel, some sort of house, bed and breakfast, or what?

What is "Vasques in Nevada" - this one I have no clue on.

I believe both have to with modern Spain. Also, I think it might help if you're familiar with the book "The New Spaniards" by John Hooper.

I'd appreciate an answer asap - thanks! :)

Caserío as already said is a Country House in the Basque Country.
"Vasques in Nevada" has no meaning to me unless you are trying to say "Basques in Nevada", which would be related to the Basques who migrated to that state in the XIX and XX centuries for working as sephards.

Un caserío (note the accent on the i) is a country house
as to Vasques in Nevada, without the context it is a bit difficult. Vasquez or Vazquez is a common family name in Spain.
Nevada means snowed in. There is a mountain range in Granada called Sierra Nevada. In that mountain range, there is a climb to the top called vía "Olmedo/Vázquez"
In Colombia, there is a place called el Territorio Vasquez, in the Western mountain range where you van also find a Sierra Nevada del Cocuy but I don't think that it is relevant...
And last but not least, there are boots called "vasque" (http://www.vasque.com) and you could use them to hike in the Sierra Nevada.

My head is hurting now...

Good luck!!!
