Hola, as subject states, we are seeking experience of those who have gone to Spain on the NLV in Spain. We would love feedback of those with young families, but not required. For reference, we are a youngish family in our 30s with soon to be 4 kids 9&under.

We are struggling with the thought of leaving good jobs to going “jobless”. I quote, bc I know you can technically do side jobs but aren’t supposed to, so we would be jobless. This our biggest concern of ours.

I will be on 18month Mat leave and my husband would take a sabbatical. We have the opportunity to have (apart from 1 parent) dual Spanish citizenship with this stay; which is the main driver, specifically for the kiddos.

So with that in mind, how was your experience? Worth it? You’d do it again, if you could? Worst ever? Struggled when returning home? Struggled financially more than you thought? Ended up saving more than you thought?

I’d love to hear it all.

    Anybody else’s experience will be different from yours.

    What are you really asking here?

    You have to consider your budget for the stay and see if it is enough for the standard of living you expect to have. Maybe saying what your budget is and asking for feedback on how far that will get you, would make it for a better post.

    If you are concerned with not having money enough without doing illegal work, I’d suggest you build up your travel funds before taking the plunge. Otherwise, just decide if you will be able/willing to live on a tight budget if needed or able/willing to work illegally to make up for the difference.
