I got back September 12. Nice was amazing. Beautiful people. Beautiful sites .
It’s interesting that you mention a hostile vibe coming from male passers by in Manchester; I had the exact same experience living in London, from Eastern European female passers by. They always made me feel uncomfortable and unsafe. On a positive note, any Mancunians that I have ever met in my life have been very friendly and easy to talk to.
Really interesting vlog … Thank you both!
Cork is technically the HQ of Johnson Controls, a major energy control company, with a good size office on the Albert's Quay.

Yoir children Will be forced to learn Básquet. You have been warned.😮
Go to home
You have to define "normal". There ARE a lot of "normal people" who have accomplished "the abnormal". Yet, they DO remain normal. :) Contrary to popular opinion, most people who do live there "full time" ......hate it. THEY HAVE to live there six months out of the year. Period. They are "expected" to buy tickets ("contribute") to a minimum number of "balls", "galas", "fundraisers" per year. ALL of the eventually benefit ONLY Albert and his sisters. Do not ever think "otherwise". :) For people who inherited money ("found money") it is a. culture shock to have to live by those "unspoken rules". For people who actually made the money in business, spending $ 500,000 a year just on rent and another $ 100,000 or more on "contributions" is a small price to pay to save....$ 15 million a year in taxes if they lived at home in England, Belgium Switzerland, Italy, etc. etc. :) We know two couples who live there. Both of them have firmly confessed that they "Can not stand 80 % of the people we know". :) :). What does THAT tell you ? :)
Thank you for sharing. Do you all children? My son is 16, but doesn't speak Spanish. I do.
You're welcome. We have a 4 year old. - Josh & Kalie

PEDESTRIANS ARE SACRED in BILBAO ❤ SO SAFE TO WALK we discovered in June-July
Kalie please speak more slowly All these boats and the seediness vibe it gives out is undeniable, that makes me wonder how many drug traffickers could be spotted if one spent the day watching the jetty. You will get so many hits on RUclips! Did you speak with enough people who are actually paying the >€30k/month? I suspect very short rental & high tenant turnover Totally agree with your opinions at 2nd half. 👍It's appreciated and I hope you will discover with us other nice or less seedy places similarly 😊
Cork native here and i absolutely would not recommend Cork to anybody looking to settle here long term, like Dublin, it has become extortionately expensive-rental properties pretty much non existent, house-buying generally out of reach for majority of people, eating out is an absurd ripoff (be prepared to spend at least E20 pp for a small brunch with a coffee), gas/diesel all expensive, below-par standard healthcare options unless you get private...Ireland in general is just disproportionately expensive for what you get and there are FAR better options for remote workers in the EU.... My partner and I are in our 30's and we are emigrating soon as are others our age in their droves, simply because the cost of living and unavailable housing needs just make it an unsustainable place to live...would be a great city otherwise as it has real charm but it's just not worth it anymore for a lot of people for the reasons i have mentioned.. great video btw
Thanks for your input! We appreciate hearing that. Keep us posted on where you go next. - Josh & Kalie
Your not mentioning Aveiro, area or did i miss it.
Aveiro is nice. - Josh & Kalie
Warsaw is very expensive for the average person.
I watched the first few minutes of this video until they said that paella is the highlight of Basque cuisine. Then, I immediately realized that these guys had no clue what they were talking about.
It's Spanish cuisine in general. We didn't mean it to be like local basque cuisine, which is highly unfamiliar most people. - Josh & Kalie
Well, I think Zaragoza is one of the best options to live in Spain. The first thing I want to say is that I was born in Zaragoza and lived there until I was 26 years old. Now I live in Barcelona. Zaragoza is not like Madrid and Barcelona. It doesn't have the problems of a big city with a large metropolitan area, but it does have some of the advantages of a larger city. It has very good public services, few traffic problems and less pollution, good cultural and commercial life... Also, something you don't say is that it is located right in the center of the area that would form Madrid, Barcelona, Valencia and Bilbao. It is also very close to the Pyrenees and the border with France. Many Zaragoza residents have a second residence in the Pyrenees, where they go both in winter to ski and in summer to rest and enjoy cooler temperatures, go hiking or practice adventure sports. Many others have a second residence on the coast of Tarragona or Castellón, which are close and well connected. The climate is cold in winter and hot in summer, although dry. In Barcelona with lower temperatures the feeling is more suffocating due to the humidity. As for restaurants, the tapas culture is superior in Zaragoza than in Madrid or Barcelona, where tapas are focused on tourists and are more expensive and of poorer quality. Zaragoza in that sense is more similar to cities like San Sebastián or Logroño, where locals usually go out to consume them daily. It is common for bars in any neighborhood of the city to have a good assortment of tapas. This in Barcelona is difficult to see. Zaragoza is a quieter and safer city than the other large Spanish cities, with a high quality of life, relatively low housing prices and where large companies such as Amazon or Microsoft are settling, which are installing their data centers there. It also has one of the largest logistics platforms in Europe, which is why more and more companies are choosing the city to set up their distribution centers. I hope this helps anyone.
Very helpful thanks! 🙏
I want to work in Luxembourg please advise me
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
❤️❤️🙏❤️❤️
I came here for the cost of living in Warsaw, instead I met a positive and cool person. Well done, Amina :). Anyway maybe you could share a breakdown of rough costs just to fulfil the video's title 🙏🏻
So the Portuguese fled foreigners by going to Luxembourg?
Not really, Portuguese for years have been going to places like Luxembourg and Switzerland. - Josh & Kalie
I lived and worked there for a year in 1986...... great place.
Great video loved it, only wish maybe 5-10 minutes about visa and immigration any tips or info
Hi! Thank you. You can find a lot of video on visa and immigration on our main channel ExpatsEverywhere. These "Guide" videos are introductions and more surface-y. - Josh & Kalie
You two did a great video considering you don’t live there, it’s hard when you just visit but your video is awesome and really great. 🎉
Thanks so much! 😊 We always try our best to mix in the things we research, personal findings, talking to locals and foreigners living there to make a well-rounded video. - Josh & Kalie
Hey, Can you tell me about the current job opportunities in cologne???
As a Spaniard it's scary to see the brutal expat appetite for Spain on social media, one knows that the positive things of immigration can be easily outweighed by the obvious downsides of massive affluence to one's country. First it was Barcelona and Madrid, then Mallorca, San Sebastian, and Málaga, now it seems as if there is no city in Spain small or hidden enough to be in the spotlight for the voracious relocation hype to Europe from Americans and Asians. Don't get me wrong, it's cool to be considered a nice country to live in by the rest of the world but doubling the population (yes, Spain received 85 Million tourists/expats in 2023), is unbearable for a country's social, economic, cultural and ecological environment.
I miss Barcelona!
Great video
Thank you. - Josh & Kalie
Hey guys one question. How is it with the language? Is english fine or u need to speak french ?
We don't speak French. We know a few phrases and know Spanish and Portuguese much better so those 3 helped us get around. As far as surviving without knowing French in Nice, yeah, you could do it. You'll want to learn French as you go and live there.
Hi, great video !! Your explanation on health system, education was very helpful for expats or foreigners considering to live there. I am a Japanese but lived in the States and Mexico for about 10 years and thinking about moving to Andorra, now exploring options. Please keep us posted!😃
Thank you. We're glad that you enjoyed it. - Josh & Kalie
Yes, don't miss the scouting trip like we did.
We hope that you all settle in alright. - Josh & Kalie
Don't do Deutz. Connections to the centre are a pain. Nice area though. if you don't plan to go the centre regularly
As someone who has lived in Marseille for over 20 years I do get concerned when people keep on about the "danger aspect",if you go looking for it you will find it. In the housing estates in the north of the city drug dealing and violence are very common place, so you dont go looking for it!! Pickpockets are more common in Paris, street crime is generally not a big worry, and we have had one breakin to our building in 20 years. Weighing that against a good climate, the benefits of being on the coast ,with easy access to the Riviera, and great affordable restaurants ,we like it.
Lisbon and Algarve having more English speakers is a false statement and completely contradicted by statistics. North of Portugal has also better proficiency (easily confirmed by many articles and reports online). I really love to see foreigners living in Porto/Portugal but many misleading facts are usually spread online. Cascais having a Great weather is also debatable (the central part of the town is sunny but the remaining areas of the municipality not really. Same for sintra. Very foggy and rainy. Lisbon west coast (Sintra, Ericeira, etc) is the most cloudy, windy and humid in the whole county (especially during the spring and summer months with many days of persistent fog). Wishing you all the best 🫂!
We'd love to see those fact, João. At this point, you're just throwing out statements as well. Based on our experience in the cities of Algarve, not every nook and cranny, English is more common likely due to tourism levels and sheer number of Brits but if you have granular data surveys, we'd love to see them. Regrading Cascais, we are speaking about the city center. Our audience thinks of the city centers of a places and not the entire municipality of areas when we speak about them. When we need to differentiate, we will. Take care. - Josh
I wana move from the us to manchester 😩😩😩 1 day 🙏🏽
Wait so basically the price of living is almost exactly the same as in the US
The average wage, after tax, is higher than the U.S.
I wish I could afford to live there. Let alone fly there
Second largest? I thought you said that about Marseille.
Nice place
Cork is also good for sports - surfing (Inchydoney), yachting (Kinsale), football (soccer), rugby union, cricket and golf. The city is a tech hub. Apple has its European HQ there together with about 50 other tech firms. Cork is also developing a wind farm with Shell & Simply Blue Energy. It’s a safe, middle class city & ideal for families. Downsides are housing shortage & prices & cost of living generally.
While paella can be enjoyed in many parts of Spain (as you've mentioned in previous comments) it's a dish from the Valencia region. The Basque Country has a very rich and diverse gastronomical identity, so naming a dish from a completely different part of Spain in a video about Bilbao seems off putting for anyone who knows a bare minimum about Spain's gastronomy and might make one question the rest of the info provided in the video. This is meant as constructive criticism and I really hope this is taken in the right way. Doing deeper research and not falling into cultural cliches will always lead to better content
It's not a cultural cliche though, you can literally find paella across the country because the country for better or worse is known for paella at this point. Yes, it can seem very much like a tourist item, we agree but it's a recognizable/relatable menu item that most everyone walking a video about Spain can understand. It's like saying sangria vs calimocho (kalimotxo). We understand your constructive criticism but many people that don't know a bare minimum about Spain's gastronomy literally won't know Paella's origins. Having lived there, we know. We'd see flocks of people in Madrid queuing to eat paella there are dozens of other things they should be having instead. It's like now in Portugal. We live in Porto and people come here and eat francesinha in Lisbon while many people say it should be done only in Porto. Or how about a pastel de nata, can it only be had in Belem? - Josh
Very helpful. I’m an American moving to Andorra in a few weeks. I’m very excited 😅 but not 100% sure what to expect
