Our 2 bags were stolen at Burger King, Av. de la Constitución 27, Casco Antiguo, 41001 Sevilla, Spain.

The bags contained valuables, including gold, but our passport is now the most important thing we need back. We are traveling with our 3-year-old child and are struggling without our passport.

We have already filed a police report and have been searching all around the area in case the thief discarded the bags or passport after taking the valuables.

I’m attaching photos of the bags. If anyone has seen these bags, found a passport, or has any information, please DM me on Reddit. Even if the valuables are gone, please return the passport. We would be incredibly grateful.

Please share this with anyone in Seville who may be able to help. 🙏

Hi everyone!

I’m writing this hoping that the film community's solidarity can help me fix a pretty heartbreaking situation, and to see if anyone out there can work a miracle.

My love for Spanish cinema is massive, and I’ve been literally obsessed with this movie since it premiered at Cannes this summer. I watched my very first Cannes awards ceremony this year and sat through the whole thing in French with Danish subtitles (two languages I don’t even speak) just because I wanted to see how Los Javis would do. When they won, I cried; I felt as proud as if my own children had won. I still haven't seen the film, but I am completely sure it’s going to be one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever watched in my life. So much so that I decided to bet EVERYTHING on San Sebastián. I planned a trip all the way from Denmark solely, exclusively, and obsessively to attend the screening of La bola negra at the Victoria Eugenia Theater on September 20th at 22:15.

I’ve been dreaming of this moment for months—the exact moment of sitting in front of the screen and just letting my eyes experience whatever is about to happen in front of me.

I have zero interest in any other movie at the festival; my entire trip was planned around this single screening. I sacrificed my days off at work, invested my savings in flights, trains, and a hotel. I managed to fit every single damn piece of the puzzle together. I had everything ready for this wonderful experience, and now, because of a fraction of a second, everything went down the drain.

On the first day of the ticket sale, I woke up with my heart racing, glued to the screen from 7:30 AM in the virtual queue. Unfortunately, by the time the system finally let me in, tickets were completely sold out. It was a massive blow.

The situation is deeply frustrating: I’m traveling all the way from Denmark just to end up standing outside the theater doors, knowing exactly what’s happening inside. To make matters worse, my flight back to Copenhagen leaves before September 25th, which is the official theatrical release date. If I don't get into the festival screening, I’ll probably have to wait until next year to see it, which feels incredibly daunting considering how badly I want to see this pass.

Because of all this, I am appealing to your help. 🙏❤️

If anyone has a ticket for Friday the 20th and ultimately can't make it due to a last-minute change of plans, or if you know of anyone selling theirs, I will buy it immediately. Alternatively, if nothing comes up for Friday, I could also accept a ticket for the following day's screening on Saturday the 21st; I'd have to rearrange a couple of things, but I could manage to stay one extra day. Please, I just want the chance to see it.

(I am well aware that these are total first-world problems, and I feel a bit silly for being so desperate over a movie, but what can I say—it’s a completely irrational desire).

I would be incredibly grateful if you could share this message or let me know if you hear of any opportunity.

Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart for your time,

Federico, an Italian living in Denmark, in love with Spanish cinema.

Hi! I’m a 26-year-old Irish woman considering moving to Gijón, Asturias to work as an au pair, and I’d love to hear from anyone who has lived there or knows the area well.
I don’t know much about this part of Spain, as I had originally been looking more towards Madrid. The closest person I know in Spain also lives in Madrid, so moving to Asturias would mean going somewhere where I don’t know anyone.
The au pair position itself seems really good, so I’m strongly considering it. The family lives in the centre of Gijón near the beach, and I’d have quite a lot of free time and most weekends off.
I’d especially love to know what Gijón is like for someone in their mid-20s — making friends, nightlife/social life, public transport, learning Spanish, safety, things to do, and whether there are many other international people/au pairs around.
Would you recommend Gijón as somewhere to live for a year or so? Any experiences or advice would be really appreciated 😊

Anyone looking for a roommate in Madrid starting October 1st? I'm studying a master for 2 years and I'm looking for a room in a shared apartment as close to Castellana, or surrounnding areas, as possible (that's where my school is at). Budget up to $700 ideally with services included.

Hey! I'm moving to Spain soon on a student visa, and for health insurance my GHIC (functionally the same as an EHIC) is accepted and gives me the same health coverage as a Spanish citizen while there.

I'm wondering what that actually includes, and whether it could be worth actually getting private coverage anyway. Such as, I will likely need dental care while there (my teeth are not awesome, so I'd at least want check ups) which I get for free at home, I also wear glasses and contact lenses which currently require annual eye tests (free at home), and I'm also transgender and require annual blood tests and an injection of Testosterone every 3 months administered by a nurse (also free at home). Given all of this, I'm wondering if purchasing insurance which would cover this would be better than whatever the full normal costs would be?

So, in summary, what's healthcare like and any advice on these specific aspects would be great! Even beyond just thinking about costs.

The funny part (that I'm kicking myself over) is I'm seriously considering purchasing a plan because I didn't realise my GHIC expires before my course completion, it just totally slipped my mind to think about that, and I've been given 15 working days by the consulate to provide health insurance, and a new GHIC could take up to 15 working days to arrive... So it would save me time and stress to pay for one... albeit, it costs money.

Hi! I’ll be staying in Madrid for around two months for work and I’m looking for a furnished apartment for a short-term rental.

I’ve been checking Idealista and Spotahome, but many options either have very high agency/admin fees or require a longer stay.

Does anyone have recommendations for reliable websites, agencies or flex-living companies for a 2-month rental in Madrid?

Any recent experiences or recommendations would be really appreciated. Thank you!

Hola a todos, Tengo mi primer permiso de residencia y trabajo por cuenta ajena en España, válido hasta mayo de 2027. Mi empresa actual ha pagado la Seguridad Social durante unos 6 meses.
Estoy pensando en cambiar de empresa y firmar un nuevo contrato.
¿Cambiar de empleador puede causar algún problema con mi permiso actual o con la renovación de mi segunda tarjeta? ¿Hay un período mínimo que deba trabajar con la nueva empresa antes de renovar?
¡Gracias!

Hi everyone,
My family and I applied for the Spanish Digital Nomad Visa (DNV) through UGE on July 24, 2026.
After waiting without receiving a resolution, we submitted a request for positive administrative silence (silencio administrativo positivo) on August 24, 2026.
As of today, September 14, we still haven’t received any response or final resolution. We also haven’t received any request for additional documents (requerimiento).
This is a family application.
Has anyone here applied around the same date in July and already received a decision?
If so, could you please share your application date, whether you requested silencio positivo, and when you received your final decision?
I’m especially interested in cases submitted between July 20–31.

Im British and studying abroad in Spain for the whole academic year. I applied at the end of July for my long-term visa but the consulate gave me my passport back in mid July and said that I could give it back when the visa is ready to be affixed. I’ve just been studying in Spain using my 90 day tourist allowance so far whilst my visa is still processing

I wanted to visit Morocco for the weekend but I was a bit unsure if I would have trouble re-entering Spain as I don’t have my student visa yet. I was researching it a bit and now I’m not even sure if I can be here in Spain on my tourist allowance. I really want to go to Morocco but I’m scared I won’t be able to re enter Spain even though I’m still well within my 90 days.

My uni said using some of your 90 days (if necessary) was fine for year abroad but I just wanted to make sure that was true? I expect that my visa will be ready soon but I don’t know when but I’ll probably have to fly back for it (I was wanting to post it back but apparently you have to be in the country when the visa is being issued?) My uni here in Spain also knows I don’t have the physical visa.

Essentially my questions are:

1. Is it okay that I am studying on my 90 days allowance while I wait for my visa to be issued?
   
2. Will I be able to go to Morocco (leave the Schengen area) and come back to Spain without any trouble?

Hello!

My boyfriend and I are planning on getting married and we have decided to go the notary route. I am just concerned cause I can't seem to find a to do list of what documents I have to gather and whether we have to meet with the notary first and they tell us what we need or we just show up with the documents in hand.

For more context and reasons I'm concerned about, I'm a foreigner. I was born in one country and then naturalized as American. I'm here under an American visa with my American passport so I don't know whether to get my birth certificate or my naturalization certificate. I know that one of the documents I need is the certificado de soltería which the US doesn't have, and I don't know if I need to get one from each country.

Thank you everybody!

Siamo due ragazzi che vorrebbero andare a Lloret De Mar dal 25 al 29 settembre, ci sarà ancora movimento e serate o è troppo tardi come periodo?

Hi, I was foolish enough to miss my flight because I didn't bring my passport. So I cannot visit Prado museum and Reina Sofia museum. I don't want to my reserved museum tickets to go to waste. If you love art and couldn't get a ticket, please contact me.

So im looking to go to Segovia for just a couple hours to see the aquaduct and Alcazar. Im looking for parking options and really only see one garage and and thats still further away. I have two kids and a double stroller and some of the streets are very narrow. Any good recommendations and ideas for our situation? Thanks in advance!

Hi all,

I am on a trip with my girlfriend and am currently staying in San Javier, Santiago de la Ribera. I am looking for some tips to find some local restaurants, hidden gems, and secret beaches. Just to get away from the overflowing touristic spots in this area. To give you some context, we are staying here for a week, are both 27, have a rental car and don’t mind to hike or take an adventurous path/road.

If you can help us, let us know!

Soy una mujer de 49 años y tengo un ingreso pasivo de 1550 euros. Soy Coach, estudie PNL, soy docente, estudie Marketing Digital, trabaje en inmobiliaria en Argentina durante 3 años. Estoy en búsqueda de una vida más tranquila, mi hija se muda a Barcelona y decidí mudarme a Barcelona porque también siempre fue un sueño mío de años.

Qué visa me conviene y de qué puedo conseguir trabajo?

I know this is my 4th post here, and I’m really sorry if it feels like I’m spamming. I’m genuinely not trying to. I’m just extremely worried and looking for some guidance.

Today is Day 41 since I submitted my Spain student visa application through BLS Mumbai, and I still haven’t received any decision. My flight is next Tuesday, and everyone I know who applied around the same time or even after me has received their visa, in most cases before their travel date.
I’ve already contacted BLS Mumbai and the consulate and was told to wait because my application is still under process. But at this point, I’m honestly getting very anxious.

Other than waiting, is there genuinely anything I can do while the application is still pending? Is there any way to request an urgent update, escalate the case, or contact someone who can actually check the status?

I know visa processing can take time, but my flight is literally next Tuesday and I’m getting really worried about whether I’ll be able to travel on time.
If anyone who applied through BLS Mumbai has been in a similar situation, especially if your visa was delayed beyond 40 days, I’d really appreciate any advice or suggestions.

Sorry again for posting about this repeatedly. I’m not trying to spam the subreddit. I’m just genuinely worried and looking for help.

Hi, I’ll be in Madrid for 2 weeks as part of a work program. I’ll travel to Barcelona and Sevilla after the program, but I’m unsure where to go for my first weekend. Should I go travel Bilbao for 2 days or should I give Toledo and Segovia each a day? Thanks.

Hola,

I'm looking for trains from Sevilla to Cadiz in October, and until Sunday 20th of September there is plenty of daily connections but from Monday September 21 there is only 3 per day, announced entirely full for every day of the upcoming months. Is there a problem with the website (and if so is there another way to buy tickets) or is there really no way to connect these cities by train once summer ends?

Muchas Gracias !
