But these are places where mainly the Spanish live, they know how to enjoy themselves. Would that be a place that would interest you? Up to one hours drive into Malaga, many places it would be less, all have regular buses to Malaga Town, beaches and the Airport.

I see reported posts, as it emails me on every one. Your name isn't one that appears very regularly, so it's really a premature prat comment on this occasion

Spanish live Yes!

My decision is heavily influenced by Malaga's airport and connections to London and my 'old country' too. Logistics won, for many reasons, also financial.
I hope to eventually move to another place after first year or so, but maybe I will stay longer. I did visit Malaga, and I love it, it's beautiful city with character. Although I am moving out of London, and I don;t won't to live in the city, either outskirts of town, or some zona tranquilla or little town nearby, or bigger town like Velez-Malaga. One thing is certain, because my life curved and I am going solo, I want to have access to bars, restaurants, music, night life

You will then have easy access to the Airport and all the Bars and Clubs you possibly need. If you then chose the outskirt of the towns then it would be cheaper, quiter and some nature as well.

what does it look like ??

should we all get together by reporting your next or last post and see if it happens again ??

If there is anyone from Nerja, I would love to hear some first person experience from city.

She´s contributed at the start of this thread.
From what I understand of her, she seems like a very nice lady and I´m sure would respond to a private message if you ask her directly???
If you read this Lynn, role your eyes, breath a big sigh and make a tutting noise, I´m sorry
