they seem to say there are no jobs interesting. in Ecuador they have a Gringo Post and gringo Tree. we are from usa and your cost of living is high then Cuenca Ecuador it is lower. we live in a beautiful condo with a view of the domes of the churches 3b 2 bathrm + large kitchen living room and dinning room.
where do we get guide book to tell us the order of getting a residence. What papers we need and do they need to be stamp in the state we were born. do you need a apostile done to paper work? or do we use Ecuador which we are a resident now and have a cedula. you do not take our american Passport from us do you? also

Hello I want to know is there any American schools in Valencia,does the education cost less than in America?

#Gaste-Valencia on Oct 18, 2016 :

NO WAY this page shows a looooot lower wages than the reality for all Spain. This must be a joke for Valencia.

Average net wage in Valencia is close to 1.600€ , the brut is about 2.100-2.200€ but after taxes and social security is about 1.550-1.600€.

This must be a joke
