moving to Spain/Gibraltar.
 

Okay, so I've found one or two job listings that I'm perfect for in Gibraltar, and I've wanted to move away from the UK for a while now. I've applied for a lot of jobs in Gibraltar in online gaming (I currently work in online gaming too) but so far been unsuccessful.

The job I do now only requires an internet connection and I've got myself a full time wage, so would it be viable to move out to Gibraltar, or actually, just outside it in La Línea de la Concepción and then search for a job? The ones I've found do require someone to live locally. I guess they just mean there's no relocation package.

My real question, therefore, is can I just find a place to rent online now, pack up and head out? What are the real hurdles one must overcome? As I said, so long as I have internet I have a full time wage, then I can search for a job without the pressure of my saved up cash running out. (I actually don't have much saved up now, but with a monthly wage coming in, that shouldn't hinder me much?). It seems the places I've found to rent are actually cheaper than where I am now, living at home :lol:

Anybody got any advice?

My God, are those rent amounts right!? The cheapest one was £750 per month!
La Línea de la Concepción it is then!
