I would like to live in Madrid, Spain, at some point in my life. 🙂
The job I would have does not need to be my dream job. I would simply like to experience living in Madrid; but hopefully, I would be able to work remotely, and keep whatever job I may have obtained before (Provided I enjoy it).
Otherwise, my options are:
- Front Desk Agent- Four Seasons Hotel Madrid
- good benefits such as health insurance, flexible hours, good salary
- Junior Product Designer
- UI/UX based, using Figma and Sketch
- Junior Graphic Designer
- develop branded marketing materials
- develop new ideas for the brand, with consistent aesthetic
My roommate and one of my best friends is currently studying abroad in Madrid. She also has family that lives there; I have a lot of insight into what it is like. The city is lovely, and the people seem friendly and kind. It’s so drastically different from Seattle, where I’ve lived my whole life, and with everything I’ve been hearing it’s so hard not to want to visit at the least.
For a single person household, the cost of living is estimated to be around $760/month. It seems that Spain is 123% cheaper to live in than the USA… and they have universal healthcare as well.
The pros outweigh the cons, based on light research, at least. I just need to learn Spanish to some degree… my fluency is NONE at the moment.
