- nice weather all year round
- Tax rate as an independant like me : 20% it's not that bad
If you choose to live in Canary Islands, I believe it's 8%
- Real estate is cheap, good quality and there is lot of offers
- Quality of life in general is awesome
- If you need the city, go live in Barcelona or Madrid, you have everything you need there.
- Super safe

I'd love to live in some Latam countries, but the criminality is really what stopping me. Getting killed for $10, no thanks.
