Hi all,

As it stands (fingers crossed) I am arriving in Mojacar 6th July, not really sure how long for initially but I want to get to know the place and the people with a view to staying long term. I will be on my own and I don’t speak Spanish, I am also aware of how the clock is ticking fast on this as an option. I’d be really grateful if once I’m there anyone would be happy to meet up and give their experience/advice. I’m 55 and ready for the next phase of my life, the kids all having moved out! 

Looking forward to any response from you guys.

Maria

Hello, I’m hoping to arrive end of august, restrictions permitting! I also plan to rent for a while whilst looking for a permanent home in the area, hoping to obtain residency before the end of the transitional period. Hope to see you there one day

Yes , that’s exactly my plan. Let’s hope we get there sooner rather than later - currently my flight is July 6th but have been informed it may be cancelled.  Good to hear of your plans, do message when you arrive!

Hi Maria, I’m moving to Spain 8th of July as we bought a house last September! Should have gone 2nd of May!!

Initially I will be on my own as my husband has work back in the UK. I will be happy to meet up with you when I arrive.

I have met my neighbours who are English and they have been brilliant, keeping me up to date with everything. I’m sure She would also give you some pointers!

Safe journey!

Hi Maria

When you´ve arrived why not come and join my lovely Yoginis for one of my Yoga classes. You don´t need to have had any experience and usually after class the Yoginis go and have coffee and a good chin wag - so a nice way to meet people.

If you think you´d be  interested in that, please PM me and I´ll send you my phone number.

All the best

Sue

Good morning.

it sounds daunting to make such a big move all on your own, but to be fair, it’s quite exciting as well and you have many on this forum who has been through it. I think that once you gather a lot of valuable feedback and advice, you will see there are a lot of common themes and contacts, estate agents etc! I am not permanent here yet, but I purchased in advance of retirement and here each month. Flights being reasonable and only just over 2 hours, makes it easier for me to be here, than to drive to London.


Anyway, best of luck and keep me posted on the group meeting later in the year.

Regards

Dan
