HELLO FROM THE RUDDS
As we have now finalised our move to Spain for the end of this June, we would like to say Hi and introduce ourselves to the Elda community. Myself Paul, my partner Mandy and her daughter Eilish will move permanently to Spain at the end of June having bought a Villa a few miles from Elda. We are all very excited about our new life in Spain and with all the hassles and upsets in the world are very much looking forward to a more relaxed lifestyle. I have been running my own business in IT for over 20 years and this will carry on when we move but would like to develop a BnB business as we settle in. Mandy has worked as a teaching assistant and recently as an office assistant but will be 'nest building' our new home going forward. Eilish is 15 and will start home schooling with online tutors from September taking 5 ISGCE's with exams in 2021.
We have had a truly positive experience so far finding our dream home and having all the arrangements fall into place and absolutely love the Elda, Pinoso region and we believe it is the perfect base to connect with all that a Spanish life has to offer. Our biggest concern though, is making the move a happy and positive experience for Eilish. We will do all that is needed to help Eilish meet both English and Spanish teens and integrate as soon as possible. We are all learning Spanish.... Mmmmm, I may take a little longer than Mandy and Eilish, lol, but trying and it will eventually sink in i'm sure.
We are a fun loving, sociable, music loving and positive family and would welcome any and all contacts with anyone interested in welcoming us into this new life, especially any help for Eilish in meeting new friends.
Un cordial saludo
Paul, Mandy and Eilish
