Can ANYONE save me from this gloom?
Hi - My name is Thomas, and im eager to work somewhere hot for a few months this year - Ill do pretty much anything, preferably outdoors, Im smart, well-spoken, enthusiastic and open-minded.
If you can offer me ANYTHING to get me out of this god-forsaken country for a few months, then Ill more than likely take you up on that offer.
And I mean ANYTHING.
All/any responses will be greatly appreciated :-)
Thanks

Don't come just yet - it's cold, wet and miserable down here in the south!
Take a look at workaway.com as well, free board and lodging in exchange for a few hours' work.

Try working round the world if you are looking for a challenge but like The Alchemist..you can find what you need within yourself.

Gloomy is an understatement.
It's been as black as hells kettle in my area of Spain just recently and tipping it down cats and dogs with still some snow up in the hills.
Hopefully better things to come soon, before I develop webbed feet.

Re: Can ANYONE save me from this gloom?
managed a dry weekend but now its cats and dogs again.
next thing you know the Spanish will be wondering how their reservoir's are so full, and from what I can see they aren't that efficient on water retention here, most seems to run off the already sodden surface and is lost.
perhaps my little place in a Far East kampong with straw hat, tablecloth and flipflops is looking a better option after all

There was a net migration of just 25,000 Spaniards in 2012, compared to 15% of the entire Portuguese population (around 1 milllion) who have left in the last few years. Now that IS an exodus

There are not that many Spaniards leaving the country - 90% of those emigrating from Spain are foreigners who moved to Spain in the past 10 years or so

We are thinking of moving to Portugal for a few months of the year and then back to UK and using the 90 day rule to obtain residency there, as are others.
