Spain – Five Recommended Expat Blogs

It’s often difficult to know what to look out for when you’re considering a move to a new country, but there are plenty of blogs out there that provide tips and tricks for potential (and actual) expats, and here at Expat Focus, we’ve been taking a look around the blogosphere to find some of our favourites. Today we’re focusing on Spain; here are five recommended Spanish expat blogs.Expat In Spain

Run by an American who has been living there for four years, Expat In Spain provides up-to-date tips about living, working and celebrating holidays in Spain. A great resource for anyone who is thinking about moving but hasn’t quite made up their mind yet, the blog provides a general insight into Spanish life, rather than focusing on a specific part of the country. With topics including buying or renting a home, finding work, managing money and learning the language, Expat In Spain is a valuable resource for expats old and new.

Sunshine & Siestas provides tips for moving abroad in general, and living as an expat in Spain in particular, from an American teacher of English living in Seville. Cat’s posts about the travel opportunities around the Iberian peninsula are not to be missed, and the blog also provides an interesting insider’s viewpoint on the Spanish education system. Definitely a great blog for those who are thinking of teaching English as a foreign language in Spain, and for anyone who likes the idea of travelling around the country rather than stopping in one place.

With a nice blend of fun, irreverent looks at local quirks and customs, and more introspective posts about what it’s like being an expat in Spain, Travels Untranslated gives a good idea of what it’s like living and working in the Spanish capital.
