i need help i have been gathering information regarding emigrating to Spain and it has just confused me. do i need a job before i leave the UK or wait until i am in Spain, do i need to arrange accommodation from the uk, where is the most affordable housing, where is the highest employment, i could go on but i am driving myself mad.(sorry there is more) i have also been looking into the TEFL course or CELTA (seams they are the same)?is this course worth doing, my partner and myself are both in are early 40s and have decided we need to leave the uk but still need to work so this looks like the ideal way to work and earn if only enough to pay the bills.
we are going to spend 2 weeks on holiday looking at areas we like i know this isnt nearly enough but we both work full time and cannot afford to spend any more time there yet. we know the area we would finally like to live in but as that area is more rural we know for a while we will need to live nearer the coast.Could anyone please advise on any of these issues.Told you i was confused.
:roll:
