Spain
Europe's most liveable large country for long stays, with a nomad visa, high-speed trains, the Canary Islands for winter and a late-night culture that suits travellers of every age.
الدخول والتأشيرات
Schengen rules apply (90 days in 180 for most non-EU visitors). Spain's digital nomad visa (introduced 2023) allows remote workers employed outside Spain to stay one year, renewable, with an income threshold around twice the minimum wage and a reduced tax regime for some. The non-lucrative visa suits retirees with passive income.

السلامة
Very safe; pickpocketing in Barcelona's old town and on the Madrid metro is the perennial issue. Summer heat waves are increasingly severe inland.
التحذير الرسمي: Spain - Level 2: Exercise Increased Caution (U.S. Department of State, ). نصيحة UK FCDO ↗
الصحة
Excellent healthcare; EHIC for EU citizens, insurance for everyone else. Pharmacies are well stocked and pharmacists give good advice.
المال
Cards everywhere, though some bars have a 5 or 10 euro minimum. Bizum is the local payment app (needs a Spanish bank). Avoid Euronet ATMs.
البقشيش: Not expected; small change or 5 to 10 percent for good service · ماء الصنبور: Safe to drink
التنقل
Renfe AVE and the new low-cost operators (Ouigo, Iryo) make rail cheaper than it has been in years. ALSA buses cover the gaps. Cabify, Uber and Bolt operate in main cities.
شرائح SIM والاتصال بالإنترنت
Movistar, Vodafone, Orange and the budget brands (Lowi, Simyo, Digi) sell cheap prepaid data; EU roaming applies.
