### [How many holiday days do you get in Portugal, Spain, Greece and Bulgaria?](https://www.yobbers.com/en/blog/working-abroad/tips-and-tricks/how-many-holiday-days-do-you-get-in-portugal-spain-greece-and-bulgaria)

Comparing a job abroad and wondering how much time off comes with it? The law sets a minimum in each country: about 22 working days a year in Portugal and Spain, 20 to 22 in Greece and 20 in Bulgaria, based on a five-day week and a full year of work. Public holidays are counted separately from those days. The four countries do not differ much on paper, but it helps to read up on this before you actually start working for an employer abroad. Below we go through the main points per country, so you have an idea of what to expect and what to ask about. The details always depend on your employer, your role and your roster, you go through those together with your recruiter or with the employer itself. Use this as a starting point, not as your contract.

### [What to cancel at home before you move abroad](https://www.yobbers.com/en/blog/working-abroad/tips-and-tricks/deregistering-before-moving-abroad)

Before you pack a single box, there are things back home worth thinking about too: your municipal registration, your health insurance and any benefits or allowances you receive. Sorting this out properly saves you a lot of hassle later, think fines, gaps in cover, or letters asking you to repay money you weren't entitled to once you'd left. Rules and deadlines differ by country and can change, so treat this as a starting point and always double-check the specifics with your own municipality, insurer or benefits office.

### [Working abroad: what your first weeks are really like](https://www.yobbers.com/en/blog/working-abroad/tips-and-tricks/working-abroad-first-weeks-what-to-expect)

When you start working abroad, your new life starts there too, but it is not waiting for you ready-made. You arrive, you start your new job, you unpack, and somewhere in week two you notice that nothing feels routine yet. That feeling is normal, it says very little about whether you made the right choice, and it usually passes faster than you expect. Building a life somewhere takes time.

### [Living in Spain: Valencia or Alicante? Julia's experience](https://www.yobbers.com/en/blog/inspiration/travel-inspiration/working-in-spain-valencia-alicante-experience-julia)

Julia had done everything she was supposed to do. Good job, good city, good life on paper. But somewhere along the way she had started noticing a gap between the life she was living and the one she actually wanted. Nothing was wrong. But that was exactly the thing. When she found a Customer service role in Spain via Yobbers, she applied without overthinking it. Getting the job came quickly. Deciding between Valencia and Alicante did not. Both cities kept pulling her in different directions, similar on the surface, completely different in feel. To experience how it would be like to live in both, she booked a long weekend in each and went to find out for herself. In this blog she shares how she compared both cities, why she eventually chose Valencia and what daily life in Spain actually looks like once you live there.
