FUELLED BY RIOJA

After two long years in England, when Spain was an itch that had to be scratched, a golden opportunity came along, which couldn't be ignored. So here I am back in Spain ~ again, just me and my dog on the sunny Costa Blanca, ready for another adventure!

TAKE ME BACK TO SPAIN ~ SOON!
Sunday, May 11, 2014 @ 4:42 PM

I was prompted to start this little blog this morning, after reading a somewhat heated debate about English people leaving their dream life in Spain, and moving back to England.

I returned to the UK early in 2013, and have spent many, many hours ever since my return, trying to find the ways and means to get BACK to Spain as soon as ever I realistically can.

Without exception, when I talk to people and tell them that I've been away for a few years, they always ask me, 'Why on earth did you come back here'. And do you know, after nearly 18 months back in Blighty, I really still have no idea!

So I hope you will come and visit my blog again, while I remind you, and myself, just what it is I miss about Spain, and the things that I would rather forget about England, and hopefully one day soon, you'll raise a glass of Rioja with me when I say Hola to Spain again!

Hello Rosie, and welcome to EOS. Looking forward to having an ally to extol the great things about life in Spain. Of course it's not for everyone, but there is lots of good to outweigh the bad, and it will be great to have your viewpoint on life in Blighty, as someone who has lived on both sides of the Channel.

Thank you Sandra, and for taking the time to comment. I think your views on life in Spain are very much determined by your experiences there. I've always been happy, but I appreciate there are others who haven't been so lucky on their own adventures.

After many chaotic but happy years spent around northern Spain, my sensible head took this mature, but often impulsive female back to the UK to settle down amongst my family and friends. Remind me again, WHY did I do that?! Big mistake! But hang on a minute, after two long years in the UK, here I am back in Spain ~ again, to pursue my passion for writing about anything and everything that springs to mind, and all the better if there's a nice glass of Rioja by my side. Expect the unexpected!
