A monthly magazine programme I've been recording for HRB about life in Spain to where I retired 18 years ago, covering many interesting facts about my adopted country and aspects of day-to-day life for a non-Spaniard. If you are planning to buy a holiday home or retire here, you will find lots of useful background information but I will not be covering the complex visa or residency rules.
