EXHere’s the myth that keeps a lot of expats stuck:
“Spain is always cheaper.”
Not exactly.
Some things are shockingly affordable — groceries, dining out, lifestyle experiences.
Other things? Electricity, utilities, certain imports… not so much.
And if you don’t understand cost creep — the slow lifestyle upgrades that quietly raise your monthly spending — you might move here thinking you’re saving money and end up spending more than before.
We’re breaking down the real numbers: what’s cheap, what’s not, and how to plan your move strategically.
👉 Watch the full video on YouTube @expatlivin for the full cost breakdown.

And yes — this includes everything. For TWO people.

DEStop trying to force a “Euro Summer” itinerary. It’s the fastest way to overpay for a mediocre experience. 🛑
We already broke down the exact costs for our 10-day Spain trip in my last week’s carousel, but the real secret isn’t just what we spent—it’s how we allocated our capital.
The Deep Value Strategy:
The Flight: $606 nonstop SFO ↔️ BCN. When cash prices are this low, keep your points in the bank. 🏦
The “Value Gap”: Using cash for $30-$40/night Airbnbs in Valencia/Tarragona to save 63k Hyatt points (3 nights) for a $600/night Junior Suite in Barcelona. 📈
You don’t need to book a year in advance; you just need to skip the euro summer trap and hit the shoulder season.
💬 Comment “BLUEPRINT” and we’ll send you the exact logic we used to balance points vs. cash for this trip. And if you haven’t already, we posted a carousel last week that went into details on the exact cost of our trip from flight/accommodations to food/activities.#eurotrip #spaintrip #valencia #barcelona #tripplanning

SH💸 Hot take: the expensive part of life isn’t Europe - it’s staying in the U.S.
So let’s settle this real quick 👇
Team Spain 🇪🇸 or Team Italy 🇮🇹?
Because yes, both countries make it completely realistic to live well on under $2,000/month — if you do one thing right:
🚫 Don’t rely on a local salary
✅ Keep foreign income (remote work, freelancing, or your own business)
That single shift changes everything. 💻✨
Here’s what my real monthly life in Spain actually looks like:
🏠 Housing: $500–$1,200 depending on the city
(Confession: I currently pay around $300 😅)
🥗 Groceries: ~$100/month
Fresh, organic, and somehow better tasting than back home
📞 Phone + WiFi: ~$30/month
🏥 Private healthcare: ~$70/month
No co-pays. No deductibles. No anxiety.
🍽️ Eating out often: ~$400/month
Because enjoying life is the point.
🍷 Drinks & social life: ~$100/month
€1.50 beers, €3–4 wine, cocktails €6–10
🚗 Car? Nope. Public transport is solid — I rent one only when I feel like it (~$12/day).
✨ This is why more Americans are realizing they don’t need to “wait someday.”
💃 Send this to the friend who keeps saying “eventually.”
👇🏽 Comment “ABROAD” and I’ll send you a free invite to my Abroad in a Year masterclass — where I break down visas, income strategies, and exactly how to make this move without burning money or time.

EXWant to sit in a villa overlooking the Mediterranean, eating paella and drinking a full-bodied red and not working ever?
(“Yes,” or you’re a liar.)
Today’s Way to Leave the U.S.: Having money. (Did we forget to mention that part?) The solvency requirements aren’t a lot, BUT the twist is that you don’t get to work at all, including remote work.
So okay, MAYBE you need to be independently wealthy to do it. Still, nice not-work if you can not-get it.
And if Spain doesn’t sound great to you, something else will — start figuring it out now at Expatsi.com.

ATFriday reminder: Spain exists and you should go ☀️
You’re stressed. The weather’s rubbish. It’s Friday and you’re already thinking about Monday.
Meanwhile, Spain is right there:
☀️ Sunshine (like, actual guaranteed sunshine)
🏖️ Beaches that don’t require a wetsuit
🍷 Wine that costs less than a coffee back home
🍤 Food that makes you understand why people are passionate about meals
🎭 Culture that’s been perfected over centuries
💙 A pace of life that doesn’t make you anxious
It’s a 2-3 hour flight.
You could literally be there tomorrow if you wanted to.
So this is your Friday sign. Your permission. Your reminder that life’s too short to keep postponing the things that make you happy.
Spain exists. Book the trip. Go.
(And soon, booking your short term rental in Spain just got a whole lot easier 👀)
Who are you taking? Tag them! 👇
Happy Friday! 🌍✨

SH“Moving to Spain won’t solve your problems.”
True.
But staying where you are might be the reason they’re not changing.
So many people think they’re stuck…
stuck in high costs, pressure, burnout, and a life that doesn’t feel aligned anymore.
But there are real, legal ways to move to countries like Spain, Portugal, Italy, France or The Netherlands, and build a life that feels calmer, healthier, and more intentional.
The difference? Having a clear plan.
👇 Comment CALL and I’ll send you the link to book a 1:1 Action Plan Call with my team to map out your visa options, timeline, and next steps.

SH💸 Team Italy 🇮🇹 or Team Spain 🇪🇸?
Because both let you live for under $2,000/month — and still enjoy a gorgeous, full life abroad.
No, the goal isn’t to get a local job with a tiny paycheck.
The goal is to earn remote income (or passive income) in USD while living in a country where life is slower, sunnier, and way more affordable.
Here’s what I spend monthly in Spain 🇪🇸:
🏠 Rent: $500–$1,200 (I personally pay $300)
🥗 Groceries: ~$100/month
📶 WiFi + phone plan: ~$30/month
🏥 Private health insurance: ~$70 — no co-pays or deductibles
🍽️ Eating out daily: ~$400/month
🍷 Drinks + cocktails: ~$100/month
🚗 Car: Not needed. Public transport is amazing.
✨ Add that up… and you’re living WELL for way less than the average rent in most U.S. cities.
So ask yourself: Would you rather hustle to survive… or live to actually enjoy your life?
