Making the Most of Your Life in the Sun
As a fellow expat, I know how frustrating it can be when you get
beyond holiday mode and need to live your life to the full, without your British creature comforts,
amidst a different way of life with confusing laws and regulations.
This site hopes to minimise some of the problems you may be facing with information on many of the topics that affect
you most; the best sources for UK goods including companies that ship to the
UK for little or no extra cost; the best flight operators for your
return trips to the UK or for your visitors coming out to Spain; services
for expats - many you probably didn't know exist; Spanish law and how it affects you and much more.
