Hi,

My name is Sarah I am 26, living in England. I have 2 children aged 7 and 2. My fiance and I are planning on moving to Spain as soon as we can!!

I feel it has a lot more to offer our children and with the cost of living constantly rising in our country (and the wages not keeping up!) we feel it is the best option for us.

We have been holidaying in the Torrevieja/Cabo Roig area for some years now and feel that this is where we would go as a starting point as we know the area (and have got to know quite a few expats there).

My fiance has a well paid job here in England and has recently been discussing with his boss the possibility of changing his shifts to allow him to commute from Spain. We feel this is definately do-able as we have spoken to so many people who do the same thing.

Is there anybody else who does a similar thing? I am particularly interested in talking to people with families who do this. As I will be in Spain on my own with the children for most of the week (which I dont have a problem with) I am interested to hear other peoples experiences.

 

Many thanks, Sarah

Hola Sarah & welcome to our forum where, for certain, you'll find so much valuable info & others to help you.

If your fiance can work as you say & commute, that will be ideal for money though I realise you'll miss having him with you. You sound as if you have made a good start making friends in the Torrevieja/Cabo Roig area already.

I'm sending you info by PM so go look.

Good luck in your new venture.

Hi Sarah

Welcome to Eye on Spain.

I think you have a good plan brewing there and I'd be really curious to know how it all pans out.  We did write an article on this subject once as we felt it was going to become more and more common:

Live in Spain Work in UK


Best of luck with your plans.

Justin

Justin, sort out Sarah's PM as she hasn't answered mine & I'm unsure if she actually received it. Sazzle has sent me her email address as she's living in Torrevieja area & is in the same boat as Sarah & has offered to correspond with her. I'm certain Sarah will benefit from Sarah's input, both called Sarah.

Thanks x
