6 de Julio - Un Dia de Trabajo

Many have asked in the last few months how we are able to take a month out of the year and live in Spain. It’s really quite simple. And it is a two-fold answer.
First, we are savers: We set up Barcelona Approved spending throughout the last six months. For example, if we ate out, it had to be at happy hour prices.

Second, we have to have days like July 6th while we are here. Mary spent eight hours working, and I spent the day doing homework. It’s that simple. We need at least two days a week like this to keep our heads above water.

But we did find time to hit the beach for an hour. Life isn’t too bad.
