The first number many Americans price out before a move to Spain is rent. The second, quietly, is their mouth. Not in a glamorous dental-tourism way. Not because they suddenly want veneers and a beach town in the same week. More because a lot of people in their late fifties, sixties, and early seventies arrive …
A lot of Americans are already getting ETIAS wrong. Some think it is live now. Some think it is a visa. Some think it is just another rumor that has been floating around Europe travel threads for so long that it no longer counts as real. And some, predictably, are already paying random websites for …
