A hiker exploring the forests of Lugo, Galicia, has discovered an abandoned village where time seems to have stood still. The houses, many built of stone and wood, still contain furniture, kitchen utensils, and even clothes hanging in wardrobes, as if their inhabitants had left one day without intending never to return.

According to local historians, the village was abandoned in the 1970s due to migration to cities in search of work. However, what has surprised experts is the remarkable state of preservation of the homes, some of which still have calendars from that era hanging on the walls.

Authorities are now considering whether the site could become a tourist attraction or be declared a cultural heritage site. Meanwhile, the discovery has sparked the curiosity of nearby residents and adventurers who have already started visiting the mysterious ghost village.

Spain’s love for tapas has reached a new level with the launch of the “Tapas Passport”, a pilot initiative in several Spanish cities that offers tourists and expats exclusive discounts at local bars and restaurants.

The program, promoted by hospitality associations, aims to encourage visitors and foreign residents to explore authentic Spanish cuisine while supporting local businesses. Participants can collect stamps at participating venues, unlocking special offers and even earning a free tapa after a certain number of visits.

The first cities to introduce the Tapas Passport include Madrid, Seville, and Valencia, with plans to expand if the program proves successful. Could this be the ultimate way to experience Spain’s famous tapas culture?

The Mediterranean coast is experiencing unusually warm temperatures this February, with many areas enjoying sunny days and spring-like conditions. In popular destinations such as Spain’s Costa Blanca and Costa del Sol, thermometers have reached highs of 20-25°C (68-77°F), drawing locals and visitors outdoors to enjoy the beaches, terraces, and promenades.

This unexpected warmth is a welcome break from the usual winter chill, especially for tourists escaping colder climates. Many are taking advantage of the mild weather to explore coastal towns, dine al fresco, and even take a dip in the sea.

While residents appreciate the pleasant climate, meteorologists warn that these unseasonably high temperatures could be linked to broader climate change trends. Nevertheless, for now, the Mediterranean remains an ideal winter getaway, offering a taste of summer in the middle of February.

In Spain, social housing, known as Viviendas de Protección Oficial (VPO), is designed for individuals with limited financial resources, offering more affordable prices and favorable conditions compared to the free housing market. These initiatives aim to bridge the housing gap, providing opportunities for those who might otherwise struggle to find suitable accommodation.

To qualify for social housing, applicants must meet certain general requirements, which may vary by region:
✔️Be of legal age.
✔️Be registered in the regional social housing registry.
✔️Not own another property.
✔️Not have previously owned a social housing property.
✔️Use the property as a primary residence.
✔️Not exceed the income limits, usually between 2.5 and 5.5 times the IPREM (Public Indicator of Multiple Effects Income).
✔️Not have received state housing aid in the last 10 years.

For British expats living in Spain, it is essential to have legal residency and be registered in the local padrón (municipal register) of the area where they wish to apply for social housing. Since Brexit, British citizens must meet the same requirements as non-EU nationals. However, those who can prove they were residents in Spain before December 31, 2020, may apply for residency under EU citizen rules, making the process easier.

It is important to note that social housing regulations and procedures differ across Spain’s autonomous communities. Therefore, it is advisable to check the specific rules in the region where the application is to be submitted. Seeking legal advice or assistance from specialist organizations can also help ensure compliance with all requirements and facilitate the application process.

In conclusion, British expats who legally reside in Spain and meet the eligibility criteria can apply for social housing. Staying informed and following the correct procedures is key to a successful application.
