Looking for a potential home and info - good or bad! :)
Hi all
Although I had already introduced myself on the Alcoy forum my research for a home has brought me to the Pinoso area...
I will be in Spain in the next couple of weeks and will be looking at the area as a potential place to live...
I am 40, love hiking, cycling, mountain biking and generally being outdoors. I love the national parks of Spain and all the mountains! Bongo (Lurcher cross) loves all the same things I do too and after spending 2 months last winter in Spain we have decided to make it our home.
We're hoping because of the excellent location of Pinoso that we'd be well placed for lots of activities all year round?
I wonder what the weather is like in the winter? Not too cold, not too wet and probably not much snow? Is the area particularly windy?
I guess the most widely spoken language is Valencian over Spanish? I love trying to learn Spanish but wonder if it is really confusing have to learn 2 variations?
My folks lived in Spain for 10 years and I have spent a lot of time there so I am not too green when it comes to relocating, plus I have lived in France and Norway before.
I'd really like to hear from anyone about the area, good and bad!
I'm a bit boring, I don't drink, ever - been there, done that, not interested! I'm also vegan for nutritional reasons not ethical so I'm not preachy!
Look forward to any replies
