Sunshine, the sea, a gentle cost of living and expat communities that are actually active: this is where the people we place begin their story.

Seven hills, azulejo façades, pastéis de nata and one of the largest expat communities in Europe. It is the westernmost capital on the continent, and that changes everything: here the ocean is not a holiday destination, it is the end of the train line. You finish the day at the beach the way other people stop for a drink on the way home.

A city set between a river and the Atlantic, and living off both. A World Heritage old town, granite and azulejo façades, a food and nightlife scene that never stops, and a wine that carries its name. Porto is a walking city: you cross it on foot, and within a few weeks you have your café, your stretch of river and your beach.

The youngest city in Portugal, and the one that gained the most inhabitants in the country over ten years. It is a thousand years older than Portugal itself, has a university of twenty-one thousand students, and sits fifty minutes by train from Porto. What you gain shows up on a payslip: rent costs a third less than in Porto, and the monthly transport pass is twelve euros.

Three thousand years of history at the foot of the Acropolis, neighbourhood tavernas, generous Mediterranean sun and a cost of living that leaves you some room. But what really changes daily life is that Athens has a coast: twenty-two kilometres of shoreline served by the tram, and a port where the boats leave for the islands.

The second city of Greece, on the sea, with eighty-eight thousand students in the middle of town and a brand-new metro that opened at the end of 2024 after thirty-eight years of works. It is not a smaller Athens: it is younger, more compact, the metro pass costs sixteen euros and Halkidiki starts forty-five minutes down the road.

Some of our roles in Greece are worked remotely, and remote means from within Greece. Our advice: start in Athens, find your feet, get into the community, then choose where you settle. The contract does not change, and neither does the pay. The view does.

Thirty-seven rainy days a year, against a hundred and ten in Paris. The city sits between a castle-topped rock and nine hundred metres of sand in the middle of town, and the sea stays above twenty-two degrees from June to October: five months of swimming. It is also the most international province in Spain, where one resident in four came from somewhere else.

Fourteen kilometres of beach inside the city, a metro serving the centre and a railway station inside the airport terminal, twelve minutes away. Málaga is no longer only the Costa del Sol: its technology park holds seven hundred and fifteen companies, and Google runs its main European cybersecurity centre here. Expats rank it the second city in the world for settling in.
Contract signed before you fly, relocation support on most roles (flight, somewhere to live when you land), a community already on the ground: the only thing missing is you.
