Coincidentally we have been asked this question, in one way or another, a number of times recently and it has encouraged us to really consider why we really do love Spain…
Here we are, in March, and the question that we keep being asked is when will we be in the new house?
It’s January - that month of the year that can drag inexorably as we leave Christmas behind and wait with bated breath to see what the new year might have in store for us. It has also become the time of year when we make one of our excursions back to the UK to catch up with family and friends, and do whatever chores might need doing…
This morning, we woke up to see that Facebook had reminded us that it was a year ago when we bought our little corner of Andalucia. We’re not sure whether that seems like an age ago, or only yesterday, and so much has happened in the interim period…
We are already well into October and we haven’t really had time to mark the fact that, as of the 1st October, we have been living in Spain for two years! This past twelve months has absolutely flown by, so it is probably time that the fleeting weeks just started to take things a little more calmly…
I am sure we all get that Sunday evening feeling from time to time. That feeling when, after a particularly lovely weekend or holiday, the thought of reality just comes along to remind you that life is not one long jolly.
Well, we both have that Sunday evening feeling…
A new house, a new business, a new village, a new sport and all in one month.
One of us...ahem... has reached a certain age. Not quite the official age of retirement, but the age when, if you have some sort of private pension, you have the option to do something with it. Following changes in the pension system, as of April 2015, you can access your pension pot and decide what might suit you best as far as future investment is concerned...
Today, we bought a house...!
