Would it be difficult to go & live there for a year? What, in your experience, would I need? Just a visa? I could always work from home; I wouldn't necessarily need to find employment there. Also, how should I go about finding residence there? Live with a family? Find a place of my own?
Help a sista out, yo.
PS. You should all read "Tao Te Ching" by the way.
Carry on.

it's very expensive. hard to find a good place to live and for outsiders not very easy to find work. but then again you're ubertalented and cutsie.
good luck

Thanks so far -
Jazzy-pooh, what's expensive about it? Just living costs? Or obtaining a visa?
I'm already learning Spanish, by the way.
Hablo Castellano un poco. Soy de Norte Americana.

I don't think it'd be too hard, language would seem to be the biggest barrier, but if you're already learning, then you grow girl..

You're so better off asking a Spaniard than me, but from what I remember of it (lived in Barcelona. not too far from Las Ramblas, for three months) it was expensive for everything. I do remember seeing most of the young people still living with their parents and screwing in parks at night. lol
I'm guessing a lack of employment has something to do with this, so I would think it might be even tougher for you to find something.
The entire 'you can come in if we can't already do it' attitude that persists. Especially against Americans.
Very hypocritical if you ask me.
My Espanol is mediocre but the Castellenos understood me, but not me them.

Consider that a payback :)
