Hi All,


my husband and I are looking to relocate from UK. We have two young kids (2 and 6mths). Are there other english speaking families with young kids in the area, as I don’t want my son to miss out on friends etc.


many thanks 😊

Assuming you are aware of the visa application process, with the age of your children they will grow up speaking Spanish so it will be more of a concern for the adults!
A daughter of friends came over with her family when she was 7 and is 24 now and has no memory whatsoever of having problems. Spanish is her first language.

Thank you for your response. Yes we have hired lawyers to help- my husband is Irish and Spanish speaking (he lived and worked in Spain a number of years ago) so that helps :) just wondering if other expat families around for myself too as I don’t currently speak Spanish but will be learning!
