US Expat in Spain
In September 2025, I left the United States for Spain. Early on, I decided to capture the progress of my journey, and create the kind of resource I wish I had when I was going through the expat process.
In my videos, I will cover visas, government paperwork, and getting settled in a new home. I will also show videos about my new life in Valencia. And, in a twist that surprised even me, I accidentally stopped drinking before emigrating, so I will discuss what it's like being a non-drinker in a place where drinking is a very common part of life.
