Dual citizen / some sort of visa (and if so through which country) / a big chunk of time in non-EU Europe?
I am a US Passport holder. And while the empire seems to be falling, it’s all I have for now. So I have to work the system.

When I first was thinking about my sabbatical year, I started looking into get a retirement visa in Spain or Portugal. But the problem was that I wasn’t ready to commit to a country.

So I am spending my first 90 days in Europe on a tourist visa. And then I don’t return to Europe until April next spring. So I am fine with the 90/180 days rule.
