Hello

Hi :D

Im Andy, 16 currently in England :( . Hopeing to work in Spain next summer 2008, and then move in 2009 for good. Rather live my life there than here!

See you round

You will probably enjoy life more here than there - at least that seems to happen to most people. Important thing is to remain open minded to the fact that this is a different culture and things happen differently (usually slower unless on the road) - you need to adjust to the Spanish ways and not the other way round - number of times I hear complaints that you cant get this or you cant get that (usually about milk plus a few other bits) - the one thing you can get is plenty of sunshine, a much more agreeable lifestyle and an allover, all year tan - winter it fades a little but not much.

At your age you should still have a very absorbent brain so start learning Spanish (if not already) as soon as possible before Vino Tinto takes hold - you will find ti a lot easier to integrate if you do and the locals will love you for it - so often Brits dont bother (mines not that good either but I do try) and want to have Little Britain in the sun.

Very best of luck with your plans.

Hi Smiley.

Ive had my mind sent on a move for about a year now. The spanish culture appeals to me a lot more already, so i am more than willing to addapt to it...infact i think i already am
Im currently doing 3 hours Spanish a week. Monday, Wednesday and Friday..an hour each day.

The only thing that is currently setting me back is funds, finding it realy hard to get a job. Im only in college 2 and a half days a week. But as soon as i get a job im saving for some funds to rent an appartment in Spain for atleast 6 months whilst i look for a job.

Thanks, Andy

Good luck Andy sounds as if you are going about things the right way -
