I've never been there, but I always thought that Spain had a certain draw to it. I mean Ireland and Scotland of course, just because they are who they are you know... Honestly, as much as I would like to live someplace like that, if my family was still living in the states, I am not sure I could do it. I would need some kind of compound where we can all live together. At the very least a lot of land so we can all have our own neighboring estates! Ideally, I'd just like a house on a nice inland lake in Michigan, not too far from my family.

If Spain is anything like Portugal it would have appeal, for sure. The only way I could become an expat is to be able to travel back home twice a year and have a fund set aside to be able to go at a moments notice if I needed to. I've been conditioned over the past 29 years though to be 800 miles away from immediate family. It would be a dream come true to buy 10 or so acres on the west coast of Ireland and build tiny homes for all the family members.
Haha, yeah, that last part would be awesome. You make a good point. I have never lived more than about a half hour away from my parents and my wife has never been more than about 15 minutes away from hers. I interviewed for a job down in Columbus a long time ago, and that would have been a real adjustment!
