I know house swaps uk to spain

If you are getting bored with spain and you are not sure about returning to the uk. Why don't we all offer a house swap to see if we like it in spain or the uk.

Not exactly sure what you are proposing, taf39...

Perhaps you want to elaborate...

I also see you are new, how about a presentation in our introductions forum so others can get to know you?

Thanks but no thanks, Taf 39, I'm quite happy here !

looking at other threads there are people who are considering moving back to the uk, i want so much to move to spain and was wondering if anybody would like a temporary house swap thus both of us getting a feel for what we really want, home or abroad!!!
it could be just the thing to make up indecisive minds

tracy

Oh okay now I understand what you mean...

Well who knows maybe someone on this forum might just take you up on that offer!

As for indecisive minds, I suggest list up your reasons for moving and come to conclusions. Value what is important to you, factor in external elements and make a decision. Just swapping houses and "seeing how it goes" is surely not an advisable thing I would say.

I would check out some of the other threads on ASF and see why others decided to move here and learn from their experiences.

Bored with Spain????? In comparison with the UK this has got to be bliss!

I find the language and the system difficult, but generally speaking I don't know anyone who has gone back that doesn't regret it.

I think the bureocracy gets to us, and we kick up a bit, but I find it so relaxing not to have fashion dictating to us and life is so not governed by the clock!! I feel the stress the minute the plane lands in the UK!!

Hi
when and how long are you looking for

We want to go back to the UK. Our first grandchild is due in 5 days. We cant sell our house here. We thought about swapping on a permanent basis but there are tax issues. It is a case of I buy yours you buy mine! I suppose that is a swap really.
