Kia Ora or G'day, thanks for your message.. just checking in to see if you are a kiwi or Australian... G'day is Australian, am I right? 

We're in Crevillenteabout half hour drive from you , are you working here or retired? 

We're an early  retired couple and have been living around the world since 2012, we've finally landed in Spain and definitely not leaving LOL 

Cheers

G'day - we are originally from South Wales in UK but migrated to Australia in 2006 with work (Army).

We bought an apartment in Playa Flamenca in 2015 and try to get over each Spanish Summer (less the COVID travel ban years 2020/21) and plan to retire in that area in the next few years. Will probably be over in June this year and maybe again in December to experience Spanish Winter/Christmas/NY.

Every trip over, we call in to that Aussie Bar Bushwhackers in Cabo Roig but have only met one Aussie girl behind the bar so far!

Hi Eugene, sure. We should be over in June this year if all goes according to plan. 

Are you on Facebook? I'll message you on this?

Hi to all you Aussies living or holidaying near Torrevieja who have placed messages, why don't we all (above) arrange a date for a catch up by the beach or similar? 

 We're the only kiwis, so easily outnumbered by you Aussies but we're pretty good at keeping you Aussies under control :) 

Cheers Kiwigal aka Shelly and Mark
