Thread: thinking of moving to spain

Hi all
Me and my husband have been thinking of moving to spain for a few years now . We have three children four and under and think we would like to do it within the next couple of years. We think the children will be young enough to settle and my four year old has been attending a spanish nursery for two years so has an understanding of the laungage. The one thing that worrys us ,is what my husband would do for work, he is a gas engineer and we know that it is bottle gas in spain, have heared that they are laying gas pipes in spain so was wondering would if in the future would there be a need for gas engineers. any advice on this would be great. bernie

Firstly hello and welcome to the forum, I can't give you any advice re work (retired for love lol) but I am sure there will be someone on who can.

Hi Bernie,
First of all a big welcome to you.
Great that you decided to join the AbsoluteSpainForum!
Regarding work and job related questions, I suggest you post them in the working in Spain section.

thanks for the advice, will give that a try

Hi Bernie,
I hope you can come to Spain and enjoy here. Do not do the mistake that many have done, to just move and see what happens if you really need a work. I have sold many properties twice because this.
If you need a job, come and search for one and then decide to move. Sometimes it can be very difficult and now a days with the world economical problems, much more.
Wish you all the best

Hi Bernie,
Had many a happy time in Watford years ago and still have relatives there. Welcome to the forum.
They are laying some new gas pipe lines down our way - Costa del Sol, but I don't know where else yet.
