So, you have been reading this blog and you are falling in love with Spain and have decided to move here. Where do you start? There are many people who fall in love with this beautiful country and leave everything behind to move to Spain. Although, it may sound like a crazy idea, is it?
You may need to learn a little Spanish first and may I suggest Don Quijote org where they will send you off to your ideal location and have you speaking Spanish in no time. You then will need to figure out what part of Spain you want to live in, The north, south, the Mediterranean.. So many different choices. I think the first thing to do is come and visit for a while then if you are truly serious and want more information visit spainexpat.
Good Luck!

The summer is just around the corner and here in Spain one of the favorite Summer drinks has to be Sangria. A refreshing wine drink that cools you down but be careful, it taste so good you will forget it is an alcoholic beverage and you will get up feeling a little woozy..
The following is a recipe thanks to enforex

Ingredients
3 liters of red wine
… or substitute the red wine with white wine for sangría blanca (white sangría)
1 liter of lemonade
2 peaches
1 apple
2 oranges
1 lemon
1 chunk of cinnamon
Sugar
Instructions
Wash all of the fruit and cut it into chunks. Now add the wine. After letting it all soak together so that the wine absorbs the fruity flavors, add the lemonade, sugar, and cinnamon (at this point you can also add other liqueors if you so desire). Mix everything together, cool it, and then serve it even colder with ice cubes and fruit chunks.
Enjoy!
