The Spainfully Honest podcast is your friendly guide to moving to Spain, living in Spain, and actually feeling at home once you arrive. We talk openly about Spanish visas, paperwork, working in Spain, relationships, and everyday life in Spain. No hype, no horror stories for clicks, just real conversations, honest advice, and the things we wish we’d known earlier.
Hosted by two friends and long-term residents of Spain, Catherine and Paul, the podcast is based on their real experience of relocating to Spain, settling in, and building a life here.
What is it like to retire, pack up your life in Colorado, and move to the Alicante Province during a pandemic?
This week in Spainfully Honest, we talk with Patrick and Carol, an American couple who did exactly that four years ago. Now living in Finestrat, they share what it has really been like to adapt to life on the Costa Blanca.
They talk about the practical side of their move, from the difficulties of getting a Spanish driving license to how the healthcare system compares to the US.
They also share what they have learned about everyday life here, including how local pharmacies work, Spanish banking hours, and how they built a community.
If you are planning a move to Spain, Patrick and Carol offer great practical advice from their last four years here.
