Bruce H. Joffe: Spanish Towns, Portuguese Villages, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Moving internationally involves a series of experiences: Physical. Logistical. Emotional. Mental.

Don't let anyone tell you that it's easy!

The two key resources are patience and persistence. You're not going to find them in most tour guides or travel books. Because learning to live abroad is experiential. You must partake and process it.

Especially in Portugal and Spain.

Whether expat (planning to return to your homeland), immigrant (you're staying and not looking back), or tourist and visitor, it's the daily rhythms and traditions that will make or break you.

In Expat: Leaving the USA for Good, award-winning journalist Bruce H. Joffe wrote about his motivations to leave the USA and emigrate to Iberia, where he divides his time between Spain and Portugal (although his legal residency is in Portugal).

Spanish Towns, Portuguese Villages continues his story of "foreign" experiences and anecdotes following the move and five years of residency. If you're considering relocation to Portugal and / or Spain, this is the book that will prepare you. And if you're already living in Portugal or Spain, you'll enjoy comparing your life abroad with his.
