Hi, I hope everyone is well. My wife and I have often thought about moving to Spain in our retirement. We now have the opportunity to retire early, with our children still only 16 and 15. They are keen to move to Spain (perhaps afraid we were thinking of leaving them behind in the UK!).
We'd love to do it as a family, but we worry that it won't be right for the kids. We're not so worried about schooling, as we feel we could look after that, with so much you can do online nowadays. We worry that they won't meet people of a similar age. We want them to have normal teenage lives, so opportunities to go out and socialise, party, get jobs, continue with their passions (dance for one, football for the other), etc. Is that likely to happen (they are good, sociable kids)?
We love the look of Mojacar, but is there enough going on, particularly in Winter? Are the transport links good enough to get you to a bigger place for shops, nightlife, etc?
Are there towns that would be more family/teenager orientated?
Any advice would be very welcome.
Take care.
Tim.
