I'm moving to southern Spain. I'm just waiting to rent my flat out. It's with a letting agent and I'm getting some interest. Then I'll be loading a van up for the move down to Andalusia and a small village in the mountains. I've got a mate down there and I'm going with 2 others. Should be good :D
-
Cool - what are you going to do (apart from letch at all the cute young Spanish ladies...) Is there a call for HGV work in rural Spain?
-
This sounds interesting - what's the motivation behind it? Hope it works out for you!
I've got a friend who has lived in Spain for over 15 years now. He says that most of the pretty young Spanish girls he knew turned into sour faced and ugly women at an alarmingly quick rate. :D
Good luck!
-
oh, and are you taking your Koch?

I haven't been to Spain for a very, very long time but I always had the impression that after the age of about 40 all the women seem to suddenly go all leathery and bow-legged and start dressing all in black.
I'm also intrigued what you're going to be doing for a living down there JM! The small village in the mountains sounds a lot more interesting than one of those "real English fish and chips" expat ghettos.

I've got a friend down there and we've seen seen a gap in the market for a luxury car service, Bentleys and limousines. So we are going into that business. There are lots of packages you can put together when you do a bit of creative thinking. The competition is kept under control with licensing and we're buying a business with a licence and a Lincoln car with customers and pre booked work.
The village I'm moving to is lovely.
Yes I'm going to pack my Koch!
-
Nice, hope it all works out!
-
The Spanish chicks are gorgeous! I'm going to have a good go at learning Spanish too.
-
Good luck Johnny. I hope it all works out for you.

That's pretty much what my friend said. He also said they mutter a lot and always look angry.

There's an easy fix for that - don't go out with any Spanish women on a long term basis and don't date anyone nearing 40 :D
-
Woo!
Good luck, Johnny :D
-
Cool stuff Johnnie- I hope the business goes well. As for letting your flat-make sure you get a good letting agent and suitable insurance-including landlords legal expenses to include evicting bad tenants!
-
a bold move, but a good one I think. Spain is great, you should have an awesome time!
-
Good luck and check back in from time to time!
-
Good luck lad!
Where is this village nearby? I'm planning going to Portugal see the village where my grandfather born in a couple of years maybe, not sure where I'm going after... Thinking in Spain, lots of friends saying it's nice and the girls are pretty!
-
Big Boom in tourism right now! Best time to set up that kind of service. Hasta la vista y muy buena suerte hombre!
-
I've had 9 views on my flat. Hopefully someone should take it soon. Got some more this week too.
I've found somewhere to live there. 3 bed apartment, underground parking, 30' terrace, fully furnished and modern. Shared garden and pool. €600 a month. Talk about bargain!
-
Looks like a bargain Johnny.
-
Don't advertise the 3 bedroom part too much or you'll be having the next BKP meet up there :)

I'm going with two others so its full already.
The small town I'm going to has 53 restaurants. That should be good scoffing through them.
-
Got a tenant to move in. A nice couple in their 30's, both working full time.
One of the agents were sending me loads of people on benefits and none of them wanted it cos its small. Fussy sods!
So, I move in two weeks if it all goes to plan :-)
-
Good luck lad!

I will Dave, if you're ever down that way, give me a shout!
-
I hope it goes well Johnny.
-
Yep, hope the move passes with as little hassle as possible... (trying to think of a Koch joke here...)
Anyway, must be exciting - good luck! :D
-
Hope it all works out great for you.
-
Spent a few minutes looking up San Pedro.. Not bad mate!!! Hope the move goes really well for you, like I say, I love Spain.

I'm in a village called Benahavis it's really nice here.
-
Well, that looks pretty chuffing great! Really hope it all works out for you.
-
Yes, it does look great. I'm very taken with your move, been telling my mates about it!

Hello How you all doing?
Its going well down here in Spain. Still warm and sunny. We've all been busy busy getting this new business set up. Everyday is a step closer.
I havent played a guitar properly since last July when i had some rehearsals and a gig, even though i've brought all my gear down here. I've not the time at the moment but that should change once I've got some routine. It seems strange looking a my Koch in a new environment :lol:
-
You should get it ( your koch) out in the sun Johnny.
