I´m probably moving to north Spain

I have come to discover that this is the promise land. For me at least. First it was Croatia, then it was the Azores, and now......North Spain, probably Galicia, but the entire north seems nice. Any miscers from that area? East Spain is too toursity for my taste.

- Almost ideal climate imo
- Not too many people
- Lots of mountains, beaches and land
- Quiet and lowkey. Not any real big cities close by
- Good food, and I like spanish people

Maybe northern california would be a decent comapison for you american brahs, climate wise. This will be a goal to set my eyes on.
For me....it´s northern Spain. The promise land

Spanish, galician or basque. But everyone understands spanish. They speak catalan in the north east, but I don´t want to move to catalonia. I´m thinkink North west Spain, not north east.

Galicia or asturias probably. Or maybe Basque. Galicia is top choice.

I heard the Basque chicks can be mad hot. Dark hair, pale skin, and bright blue/green eyes is a common combo apparently.
It was all just satire. Sorry if I offended anyone with my trolling and sickening posts. Peace and love to everyone.

God speed crack master c. You've suffered the long cold winter for too long. Be at peace my friend.
Survival. When the jungle tears itself down and builds itself into something new. Guys like you and me, we end up dead. Doesn’t really mean anything. Or, if we happen to live through it, well that doesn’t mean anything either.

My family is from Galicia. But they emigrated to America in the early 20th century because there wasn't any available work in Spain. How are you planning to support yourself?

Probably not. I don´t think there is much of an independence movement in galicia, which is my top choice. I know there is a movement in Basque country, but yeah. I will support what the majoirty of the locals support.

Underrated for sure. I have done research on possible locations for a while now. This is my top choice and I don´t think it will change. But ya never know.

That is the question. I´m thinking I will have different soucres of income, and I will live frugal. Wanna start a small farming operation. Something small. I can make money from investing and few other internet activities. Tezos staking for example. Possibley start a recording studio or something as a small side hustle or other music related stuff.

Nei, ikke særlig. Vurderte Sardinia, men er mer kjent med spania enn Italia. Digger spania. Sør italia blir litt for varmt og litt for mye mafia lol. Føler meg et hakk mer trygg på Spania enn italia. + at jeg snakker allerede litt spansk.

It can be quite rainy in most parts, that is true. However, the south west part of Galicia is significantly more sunny than the northern parts. There are pockets of microcliamtes in south galicia that are pretty sunny. Somewhere around 2500 hours of sunlight annualy, compared to 2000 in la coruna. Huge step up from where I´m currently located in terms of climate. I wanna live somewhere green. I have lived in a desert before, couldn´t do that long term.

Sheeeit good luck. Last time i visited the country was 2010 and the unemployment rate was like 40% or something crazy like that. It is a beautiful land though and the people have a very subdued, proud courtesy in how they interact with others. I can see the appeal in living there.

At least wait until it implodes so you don't get stuck holding property bags.

Hvis du ikke er glad i ekstra varme, så er ikke de sørlige delene av Spania, Frankrike og Italia det mest optimale, nei. Jeg hadde valgt en av disse stedene, langs kysten. Bedre strender, flere øyer å tilby. Digg at man også kan kjøre langs hele kysten med bil pluss at man har Nord Afrika litt nærme og

Tror ikke det slår feil uansett om du har en god plan fremover. Viktigste er at man er fornøyd med klimaet og naturen

I don´t see why it would implode anytime soon. Other countries will likely fall sooner. Almost every country seems to have problems these days. I know the economy is quite a mess, but I´m optimistic about the region.

Jepp. De stedene blir litt for varmt og litt for mange turister. Nord spania er mer rolig og mindre befolket. Billigere også enn de mer populære stedene.

My grandfather migrated over with our family mainly rooted in Basque country. Growing up I kind of always wished we were more from the Mediterranean side.

Two years ago I finally spent almost a month in Spain, and BY FAR our favorite place was San Sebastián. Amazing food, tapas, wine and ciderias, beautiful water and coastline, great golf, mountains, etc.

For Western, really didn’t care much for Barcelona or Ibiza. Maybe too early season for the crazy Ibiza partying, and the city seemed very dumpy, but we drove the coast all over and it was undoubtedly beautiful. Valencia was pretty cool if anything just for the Holy Grail.

Madrid was great, especially the day trip to Toledo. Grenada was nice as well.

Definitely want to go back to San Sebastián more, tour the rest of the north shore, work out way thru Portugal, and then cross over into Morocco / Casablanca.

TLDR... Check out San Sebastián. Highest density of Michelin Star rated restaurants in world, along with amazing ciderias and tapas. Beautiful water, coastline, mountains, etc.
