My boyfriend and I want to live and work in Spain for at least a year? |
I am an American and he is Japanese. I studied spanish for about 2 years and him about 1 year. Although we are no where within our goal of mastering Spanish. It is his dream to live in Spain but not sure what the easiest way to go and live there. I am currently living in Japan for the past 2.5 years teaching English. It was easy to get things orgainized via the programme I am on but not sue how to do things first hand regarding Spain. Any help or advice would be appreciated. I have done searches on the web. And also just placed orders on Amazon for two books about relocating, living and working in Spain. However anyone with 1st hand expeicence your comments/suggestions would be welcomed. |

Hi! My husband and I relocated to Barcelona from the UK 6 months ago - he teaches English. The best place to find jobs/flats/virtually anything in Barcelona is http://www.loquo.com - it's a real source of useful info. Also try http://www.infojobs.es (has tons of jobs of all descriptions) and you can also register/put your cv on http://www.bcnteacher.com (click on the 'for teachers' tab).
A really good book we used is 'live and work in spain' by Guy Hobbs - gives you a really broad overview of all issues involved in relocating to Spain. Also for accommodation try http://www.inmobiliaria.com - you may need to click on 'spain' from the country list on the home page (it automatically comes up for me but that may be cos I'm in spain), then on 'barcelona' from the city list - it will give you hundreds of 'inmobiliarias' (agents selling/renting flats) in Barcelona.
If you do actually make it to Barcelona, the best advice is from people who have already made the move - and in our experience there are plenty of people from all over the world who have moved to this area and are friendly and willing to help 'newbies' (we couldn't have done it without our new friends). We live in a little town south of Barcelona (Sitges), though my husband works in the city. If you do get here, or if you need any further info, you are welcome to get in touch - I'm not sure how to give you my email address without posting it on here for all to see, but if you have any ideas, you are welcome to contact me...all the best, Carole |

Spain is many countries all rolled into one therefore the culture in Spain is very varied and interesting. Its Atlantic shores and the huge plains of the interior have very distinct characteristics. Similarly, the Mediterranean Costa's change ‘flavour’ as they sweep down from the Pyrenees through the pine forests of the Costa Brava. See http://www.spain4uk.co.uk/Spain_culture.htm for more details |
