Anyone retired to the sun

Hi I looking to chat to ex pats about their experiences of taking the plunge and moving abroad. Good or bad. I took the plunge and love it. What about you?

Hi Smileysue, I´m an ex-pat who returned to the north east of England 3 years ago after living & working in Spain for 25 years. Overall it´s been a very good experience, as with everything in life, there are ups and down. We have recently bought a lock-up-and-leave apartment in another part of Spain, we are loving experiencing and discovering a new chapter in our lives. I must say I´m happier being a tourist than a worker, the employment situation is very different now to when we moved to Ibiza in 1989. I hope you are enjoying your new adventure, whereabouts have you settled?
