*Updated to reflect current 2019 prices*

Our cost of living in Spain, Seville specifically is here, and updated for 2019. I’m not sure if it’s because Summer is here and more people are thinking about moving to Spain or if it’s just to compare between Spain and their current country. I have been getting quite a few emails from readers wanting to find out just how accurate the prices listed on our 2015 cost of living article is.

The number of search engine referrals to find the article has been on the rise as well. Now that we have found ourselves retired to the Spanish lifestyle, l will take the opportunity to update the prices. This will hopefully save time for everyone as l sometimes have trouble keeping up with the emails. The aim with this blog is not only to share our destinations with you, it is also to help people who are in need of useful information.

I know that before we made the decision to leave the U.S, there were many, many, many  hours spent in front of the computer in search of information about life in Malta, as that was our first destination. Forgive me if you were looking for another destination article. Put that thought aside this week. Instead, enjoy the ever so exciting cost of toothpaste and tomatoes 🙂 .

Update: Make sure to check the 2019  cost of living in Valencia since we moved cities to compare costs.

You don’t want to miss gorgeous sites like this if you can help it.

Why fear should have your ears, not your balls you ask? I will do my best to explain why. With the recent events that have happened not just in western countries like Brussels and Paris but also in far-flung third world countries such as Ivory Coast, Kenya and  Istanbul.

It would be impossible to say that fear is not at the forefront of every traveler’s thoughts. We are only human. To us and hopefully to you, life is still a precious thing. The same thing can not be said for the cowardly terrorists that are sprouting up like weeds all over the world.

Pretty damn impressive. View of the gardens from the Inquisition Tower. You can see the Royal Stable to the right.

The Alcazar of Cordoba was a pleasant surprise. Truth be told, l didn’t even know they had one. I thought the one in Seville was it in the Andalusia region, excluding the Alhambra in Granada of course.

I found the Seville Alcazar so impressive, l didn’t think this one would measure up. Duh! I had forgotten what an important Roman city Cordoba had been. Rude awakening for me as we wandered the historic fortress that was the royal residence of past monarchs.
