The Spanish health-care system is very good. The 4th best healthcare system in the world, an average annual growth rate of 3 per cent. (The highest in Europe) Most hospitals are modern and well-equipped. The doctors and pediatricians are excellent. There are a few differences in policy between the European and Spanish health systems, but overall they are very similar. The biggest difference is the level of nursing care available in Spain. While Spanish nurses are well-trained and efficient, they simply do not perform many of the duties carried out by European nurses, and many tasks (particularly personal care and feeding) are carried out by the patient's family instead. All hospitals allow one companion to be with the patient 24 hours a day. Visiting times vary for other visitors. If you are planning to live in Spain then do remember that many medical staff do not speak English, even in resort areas.

Spending your gap year teaching English as a foreign language can be rewarding and fun. Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFEL) jobs offer a way to get to know the people of your host country in way that just travelling and passing through would not. Imagine all the great stories you’ll have to tell after a year in China, Thailand, Costa Rica or some other exotic destination. However, it’s necessary to plan ahead and purchase travel insurance to make sure none of your travel tales turn into horror stories!

For 715 years, given by 1278 to 1993, Andorrans lasted under a unparalleled co-principality, found by French and Spanish leaders (derived from 1607 onward, the French chief of state and the Spanish bishop of Urgel). In 1993, this feudal system was modified with the titular heads of province retained, however the government metamorphosed into a parliamentary republic. Long detached and impoverished, mountainous Andorra accomplished considerable successfulness since World War II through its tourer industry. Numbers of immigrants (legal and illegal) are attracted to the thriving economy with its lack of income taxes.

Catalonia shares it's northern border with the countries of Andorra and France in the mountainous Pyrenees. The Mediterranean Sea forms it eastern border with the coast running south west down as far as the region of Valencia. The eastern border is shared with the region of Aragon. Throughout history Catalonia has struggled for greater autonomy in it's relationship with Spain. In attempts to gain full independent it has on more than occasion revolted. Few Catalonians today aspire to have any real expectations of independence but the struggle for greater autonomy within Spain continues.
