Hi dorrian, welcome to the forum.

Like you i ended up out in Spain by myself and was like a little lost soul. I dont live in your area sadly but it wont take you long to meet up with people. Once you start working, youll meet people who have been in Spain longer and get a load of extra confidence and eventually you´ll get to know the area very well. it takes time, a good few months but youll get there eventually.

How close are you to Roquetas De Mar, it would be easy to get to from Almeria, loads of Brits there and plenty of watering holes.
