Wherever you live I’m sure you’ve once dreamt of living in one of those beautiful countries in Europe, assuming of course you’re not already there! Spain is one of those countries with a particular enigma wrapped around it, rich in history and culture, and oozing charm and appeal.

Even without my help you can probably conjure up your own set of reasons to move, but just in case you need a little more of a push, here’s a list of reasons Spain is a destination worthy of your inhabitance.

1. If you know where to look, you can find some nice, affordable accommodation. There is of course plenty of expensive places too, but if you’re earning a modest income and don’t need to live next to the beach then there are options available.
2. Living expenses can also surprise you, phone, power, internet are all well within most budgets. Grocery shopping won’t leave you empty pocketed and you can even go out for a few drinks on the weekend stress free!
3. Spain has a good healthcare system. Iberia boosts the highest rate of organ donations in the world, and for legal residents, in particular the ones that are working, the health care is modern and comprehensive.
4. When you do actually get out and about, you’ll see some of the most beautiful architecture in Europe. Giant churches, museums and even the lovely houses that line many streets.
5. When you get past the houses you might find yourself at one of the finest beaches in the world, filled with thousands of other tourists from every corner of the globe to soak in the hot summer sun and take a dip in the serene waters.
6. A little further out, sitting in the Mediterranean Sea, is Ibiza. I don’t know if there is a better known party destination, so if you’re the type that likes to take your mind off of work by dancing in the middle of a crowded, bass-booming club on an island with other drunk party goers, this is for you.
7. Spain is pushing the learning of English more and more, and there is an abundance of opportunities in the workplace for those that can speak it; whether from tutoring, babysitting, a school teacher, or if it be in a business looking to communicate with those outside Spain.
8. This gives you a perfect opportunity to learn the Spanish language. It’s no secret that immersing yourself in the culture and throwing yourself into situations where it’s needed can be one of the best ways to pick up a language…

However, you’ll want to know the basics first, it’s no good running in blind. So in order to get your skills up to the required level, you should consider taking some classes, or sending a quick inquiry about what it takes.
