Hello Everyone, Was Directed By Mum To this brilliant forum. im 20 years young, currently living in England, just out of north London.

my mum lives in Costa Almeria, Mojacar, and she has done for the last 3-4 years. Ive Have now decided that ive actually had enough of this country at the moment, and the last few months have really made me think.
I was an apprentice vehicle technician, and was working 6 days a week for a really poor wage and was doing things that i shouldnt really of been doing on my own. i started to feel stressed out with things and the mere lifestyle im living.

anyways enough of all of that lol.

I should be moving out in the next few weeks 😊 .

and Think Eventually I maybe looking at moving to the malaga area :coolsmirk:

Hope to hear from some of you 😊

Luke

Well Firstly Thanks For the Quick Post back 😊

And the answer to “if they would come back” Erm I dont think so hehe!

I have kinda given up a few things, like work, but im not bothered as i was truley under paid and felt i only lived for saturday nights!!. Only Thing that i will miss is my Beloved Golf Mark 2 GTi which ive sold…......but then again its given me a fair amount of money to start with!

I keep reading all different stuff on where im moving to and it excites me, but my mum has told me it will be a little quite, but im not bothered as long as im not here anymore (soz to be Blunt) . i do have my eye on Malaga which seems to be constantly busy through out the year!!

Ow also Good Luck to you too “brit” hope the house sells and it all works out well for yourselfs!

where abouts are you looking at going to in spain?

Cheers

Luke :D

Hello Luke and everyone else,

I wanted to introduce myself to all of you as well. My name is Lorena, I am an original N.Yer living in South Florda for the past 12 years. I am currently getting my Masters in Int’l Business Administration and am looking to move to Spain and work there after I am done. My dad is from Cuba and my mom is from Nicaragua. If anyone ever has any suggestion on what would be the easiest way for me to transition over there to Spain PLEASE let me know.

It’s never too early to start networking 😉

Thanks to everyone and Cheers to you Luke,


XOXO

Not a Problem Lorena! and your right, its never to early to start networking and you will find this forum very useful and helpful! some really experienced people on here who know what they are talking about! im not very good when it comes to all the legal parts of moving to spain and all of that etc etc :red:

also you might find it helpful if you havent already, is start your own post up because sometimes people wont see it in this thread of mine.

good luck with everything!!!!

Luke
