We have sold our property in Fortuna and are going to rent in Guardamar 90 days from April to June and then 90 days September to November. We are looking for walking or any other groups and ways to meet new friends.

I am enjoying my breakfast in bed and catching up with the forum. I have read all the posts from start to finish and it is wonderful to see how many people love their lives living here in Spain.  I believe the sunshine makes us happy and looking out at the clear, blue sky makes me think that...

... I have stayed in bed for far too long. We have our son and his girlfriend staying so have been enjoying eating and drinking far more than usual but the pleasure of having their company is well worth it.

Fairy 108, where are you now? Uk or Spain?  Have you reached any decision regarding your future here? Like so many others, I believe that I prefer being here off season for purely selfish reasons. You can park your car usually, the sun isn’t too intense, you don’t feel obliged to race off with your sun bed to the beach , in fact, there is a wonderful laissez faire feeling .. no pressure on you to have to do anything. 

I am not into joining societies nor do I feel the need to. My husband and I have become joined at the hip since our children flew the nest. We are happy together and enjoy life. Torrevieja is a working town and always a busy place. In the winter, we park our car on the outskirts and walk along the boardwalks all the way into town it is always buzzing.  We sit down and have coffee and something to eat and thank our lucky stars to be living this wonderful life. What a joy to escape the cold, damp winter of home.  On the other side of the coin, if and when we are at home, we equally have a wonderful life. We live in a beautiful area and enjoy a great social life there. Most of us are truly blessed. You don’t have to be rich if you are happy and enjoy good health. Just remember to make the best of your time here as we don’t know what the future holds. 

Time to rise and shine!
