A Journey Towards Balance and Success

Embracing the Next Adventure of Life in Spain

Meet Roberto and Ana Martín, retirees from Mexico City who chose Spain

for its unmatched quality of life, vibrant culture,

and excellent climate to spend their retirement years.

Roberto and Ana's peaceful retirement enjoying a relaxed lifestyle in Spain.

Roberto Martín, a 68-year-old retired university professor from Mexico City, and his wife Ana, a 65-year-old former school teacher, longed for a life that would allow them to blend their love of the arts and culture with the tranquil beauty of coastal Spain. After a fulfilling career, Roberto always dreamed of spending his retirement years in a place that combined cultural richness with natural beauty and tranquility. They decided that Spain, with its renowned quality of life, vibrant culture, excellent climate, affordable cost of living, and world-class healthcare system, was their ideal destination.

"

Spain offered us the lifestyle we had always dreamed of: a perfect balance between cultural engagement and relaxed living, set against beautiful landscapes and a welcoming community. — Roberto Martín

Their journey began when they vacationed in Malaga, a city known for its vibrant culture, beautiful beaches, and rich history. This experience confirmed their desire to make Spain their new home, providing the perfect setting for both personal fulfillment and a peaceful retirement.

Upon initiating their relocation plans, Roberto and Ana encountered challenges such as understanding local regulations, finding suitable healthcare, and adapting to a new lifestyle. Moviinn's website proved to be a critical resource, offering detailed guides and expert advice that navigated them through these initial hurdles with ease.

The Martin's process

Roberto's Moving Timeline

Roberto and Ana's adventure began with a deep dive into their preferences and goals, which led to the identification of Malaga as their new base of operations. Seeking a smooth transition to their new life with minimal fuss over paperwork and legalities, the Martins found exactly what they needed in Moviinn's personalized guidance and comprehensive support throughout their move to Spain.


Start of Services

moviinn helped Roberto and Ana with organizing all the documents and sorting all the bureaucracy related to the application for the visa: Evidence of having sufficient financial means, getting a NIE and finding a home among other key aspects.


Applying for a Visa

After the visa was accepted, the couple planned their move—they set a date, and did virtual real estate tours with Moviinn. They chose a home that fit their needs and moved to Malaga. With Moviinn’s help, the Martins found a vibrant neighborhood that met all their needs, from local services to cultural activities.


Arriving to Spain

moviinn helped them get a 1 year residency permit. Usually, you would have to renew it again after the third and fifth year but since Roberto and Ana are Mexican, they can apply for Spanish citizenship after 2 years of residency.
