    Great question! Galicia is so beautiful and there's so much to see. Santiago de Compostela, Vigo and A Coruna are the largest cities in the region. Ourense, and Lugo are smaller cities. And for towns/villages it depends if you're looking for the coast or inland but a few popular ones are: Pontevedra, Fisterra, Baiona.

    I hope that helps! If you have any questions just let me know.

    Hi!

    Great question. Generally, yes, retirement income is taxable in Spain if you are a tax resident of Spain. If you live in Spain for more than 183 days out of the year you are considered a tax resident. It's best to speak with Spanish tax expert to discuss your specific situation as they can beset inform you of what to expect.

    Hi! That's great. As you probably know no visa is required to stay in Spain for 1-3 months, however if you wish to stay longer you will need a visa. Be sure to verify that there is a visa you qualify for.

    As for taxes you are generally considered a tax resident of Spain if you reside in the country for 183 days or more. If you are planning to be in Spain for less than 183 you are will likely not be considered a tax resident. Given that, I'm not a tax expert so it's best to speak to a Spanish tax advisor for personal assitance.
