Summary

In this conversation, Josh and Kalie reflect on their past experience living in Madrid and how their perspective has changed over time. When they first lived there in their twenties, they loved the energy and excitement of a big European capital, but now they feel they prefer smaller cities and a slower lifestyle. Throughout the conversation, they compare Madrid to cities like London, Lisbon, and Porto, noting differences in size, transportation, cost of living, and lifestyle. They talk about how Madrid has improved over the years with better infrastructure, more international residents, and better English spoken, but they also mention downsides like the size, cost of living, climate, and busy city life. πŸ’Ό Green Ocean Global | Financial Advisory for Expats Schedule a free 15-minute intro call with John, our trusted financial advisor: http://www.calendly.com/johnoceansgreen (Choose the ExpatsEverywhere Intro Call) WorldPost - Mail Forwarding and Virtual Mailbox https://www.worldpost.io/ Slate and Key | The Key to Your New Life in the Iberian Peninsula https://slateandkey.com/ We created two step-by-step courses to help you DIY your D7 or Remote Worker visa for Portugal.
