florida to spain
 
Hi everyone,
We are planning a move back to europe (spain) from florida.
The visa situation is proving to much hassle and the possibility of a green card is like winning the lottery jackpot twice in a week!!
We like the idea of Moraira Javea Denia or round that area,we have a 17 year old young lady and a 20 year old young man .Does anyone know if there are a good number of brit youngsters of that age in this area.
They will also be looking for work as will we.
(SNIP)
Thanks.

That area has a lot of Brit expats around, although the work situation around here is not good at the moment, especially if you dont speak Spanish

he's right

tons of brits - though numbers are dwindling

mainly because of the work situation he mentioned

Thanks for the comments,
we are all learning the language now via rosetta stone although i spent a year living in Barcelona in 84/85 so i understand quite a bit.
When you say people are moving away because of the no work situation is it mainly employed or self employed brits?
Thank you.
