Hello. My partner and I are currently living near Burgas, Bulgaria where we have been for several years but would now like to move to somewhere warmer (Bulgaria has rather cold winters) and we like the look of the Andalucia region. Initially we are thinking about getting a motor/camper vehicle and having a bit of a look around before deciding on something more permanent. Would love to hear from others with similar interests or experience.

Hello, I am from US-California, my name is Igor. Have some plans to move temporally to Spain, Barcelona. Never lived in Europe and I like to take a chance. Would love to learn a new language a specially Spanish. In states owned few businesses. One was construction mostly specializing in remodeling. Another one was an electrical construction business and now a refrigeration residential/commercial. The main hobby is sailing. Always like to exchange a good info.

I am in Madrid for a 3 month assignment for one of my clients from mid January to mid April.  Normally live in the US in the Atlanta, GA area.

Alone here in Madrid, wife and kids stayed at home in Georgia.

I usually do two of these trips a year.  I should be back mid August of this year.

Hobbies:  Flying (private pilot) but its been a while.

I am a tech guy, my consulting work is primarily engineering consulting in the Television field and Software Development.

Hi, I'm Roz Flans. My husband Steven and I happily retired to Valencia 4 years ago. Traveling has always been our joy, and after a lot of exploring and research, we made the best move of all.
We enjoy Valencia for the people, the climate, culture and the things that make it unique. There's so much to see and do. We can walk almost everywhere and appreciate the excellent transportation system and low cost taxis. It's a good base to travel from and come home to.
We have made many good friends here, and welcome more.

Hello,

I am a Canadian currently living in France and moving to Barcelona in 2016.  There are many months, at least 10, before I move, but I need to get ready because it is stressing me out.  Because of the stress, I am unable to enjoy the thought of living in Spain :-( 

I am looking for someone to talk to, much easier than email, to understand how things work (like medical system), what procedures need to be done and if possible, some help on finding out how to do them.  I'm hoping for hints on identity card, driving license, medical system, dog insurance :-), ...

I need hints to start with, after I can search more myself (the thing is, if I don't know what needs to be done, I can't search for it).

Looking forward to meeting Canadians,
Veronique

PS: I'll be in Barcelona at the end of March, could use that time to meet up.

Hi guys

I'm new to the Spanish Forum.  I'm living in England but I'm wanting to move to warmer climates at the end of the year.  I won't be looking for work as I've started a business that I can run from anywhere in the world, but I was just wondering how you find living in Spain as an expat.

Many thanks
