I’m in Spain now with a 3 yo wrapping up 10 days. Madrid, Cordoba, Seville was a perfect itinerary now and would def be in Jan. Have been to Barcelona previously and would choose this itinerary again over BCN

I liked Barcelona and the beach, but not sure in January..also they are a bit hostile toward tourists right now.

For me Madrid is skippable. If you’re willing to fly internally Barcelona and Bilbao would be my picks. I have a big soft spot for Zaragoza as well, beautiful little city you can reach on the train from Barcelona. San Sebastián is also a train ride away from Bilbao and has fantastic food.

Barcelona, Seville and Granada. I’d skip Cordoba.

I did Madrid, day trip to Segovia and cordoba. I hear Valencia region is really nice but didn’t have the time. All seem like different worlds in terms of architecture.

I went Christmas time 2023. Still had an amazing just wear layers. Highly recommend it’s still my wife’s favorite trip and my 2nd.

Barcelona and Madrid, of course

I love Palma de Mallorca. You can get there by ferry. It’s an island right off the coast.

It depends on how you plan to travel around. Car: pick a region like Catalonia, Basque Country, or Andalusia and explore outside the major cities, driving is a great option to get around. High-speed train: major city hubs so you can visit Madrid, Valencia, Barcelona, and Zaragoza easily, in comfort, and 2-3 hours per leg. Fly: Ryan Air and Vueling have excellent budget flights across Spain. January weather varies per region but it us a great low season window to travel in for Spain. I live here full time —don’t be discouraged about the tourist protests, it is more about lack of housing and the impact of long term over-tourism than the individual traveller.

Sevilla is underrated

I’d do two Spanish spots plus Gibraltar
Interesting spot plus a break from Spanish food, which is not my favorite

Barcelona, Madrid, maybe Segovia

I am generally uncomfortable when I’m around my mother-in-law’s husband.

While he is overall a decent guy, his anger issues, yelling at his wife for the slightest issue, and insulting nature makes me uncomfortable and triggers my own anger due to his blatant disrespect for just about everyone around him.

My mother-in-law says he’s worked on things, but it’s been 10 years of this and I’m not sure I want such behavior around my wife and our kids since we’re trying to conceive soon (cont).

My office location is in Marathahalli and offices are starting from Jan. I am shifting from Mumbai to Bangalore due to work demand. I will be moving with family. What would be the ideal location for me to search flat. I prefer gated community with amenities inside as I have small kid and can take her in the park than going out. How would the rent be? One of my friend has a flat in Ecity gated society with 25k rent. Where can I search for similar society within commutable distance. This is 20+km

Hi all!

I want to report this to the FBI’s elder fraud department but I don’t want to complicate her situation even more.

Does anyone know if criminal stuff like this and immigration related things are separated?

529 Plan VERSUS Prepaid

We live in Florida and currently have a Freshman in High School and a 16 month old. We hear from our friends and family with college bound children "I wish we would have done Florida PrePaid." After obviously ignoring this for years, we are finally trying to do it before "it's too late" for both children.

Does anyone have recommendations on which plan to go with for each child? I once did the pros and cons on a whiteboard and it seemed like 529 was better.
