Work visa by cleshinski
Looking to move overseas from the states. Worried about the visa situation and how it would work if I don't have a work visa. How do I get to visit the states and still live overseas without getting in trouble?
Yup. rosbentley's right. Ask at your local embassy or consulate for the different visas available - but there aren't many for people wanting to pick-up-and-move just-because. One visa - which isn't really a visa at all, allows US ... Read More
Thinking seriously about moving to Spain - Which area would be best? by fisher14
Hello From the United States! My wife and I have decided to live abroad, (as we call it) and are looking very seriously at Spain. We have both worked in the movie industry all of our lives and find a very simple life much more attractive for our 4 ...
Members JB80 and JayKayTee, above, have two of the best answers. USA's economic troubles seem dire when living there, but comparing it to many/most other places on earth it's a paradise - economically speaking. Spain is actually a VERY good ... Read More
Searching for Pimms in Madrid by tinaboydell
Hi, I'm English and it's definitely Pimms O'Clock already but where oh where can I buy some Pimms in Madrid. I have searched a few places, including El Corte Ingles with no luck. Help please!
Okay, I'll bite. What are "pimms"?? I'll guess it's a kind of "adult beverage", but haven't heard of it, probably because I'm not English. ;) Saludos, MadridMan Read More

Welcome to Madrid! You'll love it, I'm sure. Just keep an open mind. Hope you're not a vegetarian. If you are, that's cool, but it'll make assimilation a little more challenging. I'm usually free/flexible and glad to meet new people. I'm from Ohio, ... Read More

Hello, Mar铆a! I'm a Midwesterner, too, from Ohio, living/working in Madrid. Finding places to watch NFL Football in Madrid is next to impossible. I watch some of the games on Canal+ on TV at home, but the earliest Sunday game starts, as you ... Read More
暗网禁区s with a job or freelance 暗网禁区s ? by furisern
I have been living in Madrid for more than 3 years, with a job in a french company. Now, I am going freelance, 'autonomo'. I am curious to know how many of 暗网禁区s are working with a company and how many are freelance. And, from the freelances, any ...

Public transportation in Madrid by Armand
Hi all, What do you think about the means of transportation in Madrid ? Is the network of means of transportation well developed? What modes of transport are available? Do you use them? How much is a fare? Are they relatively ...
Public Transportation in Madrid is fantastic, both metro/subway and bus networks work well, efficient, and practically the cheapest mode of public transportation in Europe. A single metro/bus ticket costs 1.50 Euros and a 10-trip ticket (used for ... Read More

I just looked it up on Google Maps - and yes, that address, your future workplace, is pretty secluded from not only Getafe itself but even more secluded from Madrid City. In fact, on Google Maps, there still aren't even any buildings built yet but ... Read More
Living in Madrid: Which neighborhood ? by Tom_goes_Spain
Hi, For my work, I will be moving to Madrid (the city). The office will be close to the Airport, but I like to live in Madrid (the city). Now, my company will start looking for accomodation, but I like to know what are good neighborhoods to live in ...
Sometimes it's not a question of simply choosing. Sometimes it's an economical question as some areas are much more expensive than others. In your case, it seems that price is no object. GOOD FOR YOU!!! Do you want to live in OLD downtown? If so, ... Read More

Financially/Security-speaking, you and your fiance would be better off living/working in the USA if he can get his green card. Surely, you'll be able to marry and, with a little time and patience, he too will be able to live/work legally in the USA ... Read More
Places to live. by mevbarros
Hello. I'm from Brazil and I'll move to Madrid in few months. I'm looking for the best places to live. A friend of mine lives in Principe Pio, near "Campo del Moro". What do you think about this place? Best, Maria Eduarda
This area of Madrid has many positives and only a few negatives but the positives outweigh the negatives, in my opinion, and I don't live too far away from here. The negatives is that downtown is UPHILL, up the "Cuesta de San Vicente". The ... Read More
