man you should stick with Spain, especially where i Live in Barcelona. The cost of living is relatively low, and the quality of life is VERY high. You have year round great weather, about two weeks of rain the entire year. You have the beach AND you have the mountains (bout 1 1/2 hrs to the pironese, and 2 1/2 to the french alps). The food is great (if you like lots of pork and seafood). Its a very international and hapening city imo. I've been here two years.
Good luck whereever you end up
