This was a great video, especially for Americans researching a move to Spain. We are looking to relocate to the Costa Blanca, around Calpe, Denia, or Javea in a couple of years so have started considering some of what you are discussing. We are finding that housing is pretty similar to our Upstate New York region. For example, I am able to sell my 3 bedroom home here for about 320k which would only purchase a 2 or 3 bedroom apartment there...but I think the trade off is location. The Costa Blanca has so many advantages for outdoor experiences, plus the climate. Perhaps you could do another video on the challenges for Visa, taxation, and any other preparations necessary. For example, to apply for a Visa in the US, you will need proof on health insurance as well as proof of a residency...meaning you have to rent an apartment and pay for it without even knowing if you will be approved for the Visa. Thanks again for taking the time to post this!!
@mari_schultzКүн бұрын
Thank you! 🙂 Exactly, these places that you named are considered to be luxurious towns on the Costa Blanca. They are known for their high-end apartments, villas, and excellent amenities and are popular with expats and retirees that's why the prices are more expensive. I assume you’re referring to the Non-Lucrative Visa. It’s true that you’ll need private health insurance to apply for this visa covering you for a whole year. However, for proof of residency, it can simply be an address of a short-term rental (airbnb), or even that of friends or family. You do not need to commit to or pay for a long-term rental before receiving the visa. Thank you for the suggestions, I would definitely cover this in another video!

Es muy curioso q muchos estadounidenses utilicen términos como "molesto" respecto a un día festivo. Para ellos lo frustrante es no cumplir ese día sus planes en vez de pensar que tienes la opción de hacer algo diferente durante el festivo, y que de alguna manera TODOS estamos disfrutando de ese día festivo. La individualidad yanqui frente al beneficio colectivo.

I recommend you to join a nearby "falla" - ask around if there are any English speakers native o learned, that would help youto fit in. It is a social club, you will make some friends, and a lot of acquaintances, that will help you with your ordinary needs as asking for a good plumber and thinks like that, and of course improve your Castilian Spanish, and your knowledge of the Valencian culture or even learn some Catalan language, call it Valencian there.

Sobre el tema de los días festivos, la solución mas fácil es descargar el calendario laboral de la comunidad Valenciana por internet y ya se puede programar la vida diaria sabiéndooslo que días son festivos. ( que no son tantos por cierto.) Yo vivo en el principado de Asturias y no todos los festivos son iguales para todo el país cambian algunos según en la comunidad donde se reside. Se busca el calendario laboral de la comunidad donde se resida y listo.

Vais a "flipar" (como decimos aquí) Del 1 al 19 de marzo, aunque el 23 de febrero es la1ª "mascletà" en la plaza del Ayuntamiento.(Informaros de qué se trata) Os va a costar un poco entenderlas, el por qué de esas fiestas, pero que os sirva de consuelo, que hay españoles que todavía no las entendemos...Ja ja ja ...Son unas fiestas INCREÍBLES

How is wifi in Spain? I teach online, so I would need a strong internet connection for this to work. Open to living almost anywhere with a good internet connection. Preference somewhere that will not need a car to get around.
@mari_schultzКүн бұрын
Hi Dani! Spain generally has excellent wifi coverage. Most major cities and towns offer high-speed fiber-optic internet, which is perfect for online teaching. Even smaller towns are catching up with reliable connections, though very rural areas might still have slower speeds or limited options. Unlike the US majority of Spanish cities and towns are walkable with great public transport. We live in Valencia and we don't have a car. You can look into Madrid, Barcelona, Bilbao, Malaga, Valencia, Seville or smaller cities like Alicante, Murcia, Cordoba, Gijon or Logroño. Just look into airport and railway connections so that you can move easily around without needing a car

In Spain there are only 14 annual holidays, apart from Sundays. These holidays are divided into three groups: 1. National holidays, i.e., for the whole country (10). 2. Holidays of each region (2). 3. Holidays of each city (2). These rules are for the whole country. So there are NO holidays every week.

You need a calendar with the festivities in your area. This way you will know when everything is closed or when to celebrate a tradition, every year they are the same. Regarding the language you have to be constant, start with topics, restaurant, store, etc. I learn English with you for example. Avoid bubbles, in Spain it's very easy to interact with each other, it is very Mediterranean, it will be easy for you. Enjoy and welcome home. Greetings from Barcelona ;-)

If you’re planning to apply without family members, you meet the financial criteria. It should be possible for you to apply, but you’ll need to provide proof of consistent earnings from your blog (bank statements for at least the last three months) and a contract or statement from Google AdSense (or a similar platform) confirming your revenue and business activity. Please note, I’m not a lawyer, so I highly recommend consulting with a professional for the most accurate information. You might need to provide additional documentation, as it’s important to demonstrate that your blogging income is a professional, sustainable business rather than a hobby.

@mari_schultz15 күн бұрын
Great question! The Digital Nomad Visa is mainly for remote workers or freelancers earning most of their income from outside Spain. You can’t make more than 20% of your income from Spanish sources while on this visa. So if you’re planning to open a business in Spain, the DNV isn’t the best fit. Instead, you’d want to look into Spain’s Start-Up Visa or Entrepreneur Visa. These are designed for people who want to launch a business here, and they usually require you to present a business plan and show how it could benefit Spain’s economy. Hope that clarifies! :)

Great question! Yes, you can combine salary and rental income to meet the financial requirements for the Digital Nomad Visa. Many applicants use a mix of income types, including savings, as long as you can prove it’s stable and consistent. Just make sure to have good documentation for the rental income, like contracts and proof of payments, to show it’s reliable. However, I would still consult this matter with immigration lawyers, to make sure all the documents are correct to avoid any visa delays or rejections.
