Spain: Looking for advice from Americans in Spain:

My partner and I are in our mid 30s and looking to move to Spain for a period of 1-2 years. We will have some savings to support ourselves, but not nearly enough for the entire time. We'll both need to have at least part time work while we are there. What do we need to know in terms of visas? Most of the information I've found online is geared toward citizens of the UK. All the info geared toward Americans seems to be about moving to Sweden for some reason. Neither of us are fluent in Spanish, but are learning.

Global Expat Forum: How to decide?:

My partner & I are in the early stages of planning our move. We are planning for early 2017 and wherever we decide on we would like to stay for about 2 years. We've bought a few books and talked to a few people. But the more research we do the more overwhelming it seems. We both agree that we need to narrow it down to our top three destinations and then focus our energy on the country we choose. We'll have to support ourselves while we are abroad so will need some sort of work and want to be able to travel while we are away. Our main goals are to experience a different culture, possibly learn a new language and travel. Some concerns: we're gay and in an interracial relationship. I'm white and he's Latino/Native American. For work I have lots of hospitality industry experience and he has lots of retail & cosmetics experience. (I'd like to get some experience in the wine industry). Any suggestions on how to narrow down a search? Right now I'm leaning toward focusing on Chile, Argentina or Spain.
