Pamplona is Navarre's capital. San Fermín (the bull-running festival, July 6-14) draws global attention but defines barely a week. The Camino Francés (Camino de Santiago) main route passes through. Pyrenees access is 30 min north. Same Spanish DNV story.

Editorial estimates. Not financial advice. The 4% rule is a planning anchor, not a guarantee — sequence-of-returns risk and tax-jurisdiction friction (US-LLC / FEIE / state residency) can move the real number meaningfully. See our expat tax directory for the cross-border side of the math.
