Raising our family on the Costa del Sol is by far the best decision I have ever made. Our children are bilingual and they spend most of the year outside, and that is a childhood I could never have given them back in Ireland.

However, there are a handful of things I wish somebody had sat me down and told me in my early days here. So that is what I am doing for you today.

Ten years on, and after helping hundreds of international families make the same move, these are the six truths I see play out again and again.

You’ll hear:

✔ Something that happens with your children in the first year that catches nearly every parent off guard

✔ The assumption almost everyone makes about school fees here and why it’s wrong.

✔ The one number thing you need to know before you come as a family that we wish we knew earlier.

✔ What a normal week actually looks like once the holiday feeling wears off

✔ How will your kids learn Spanish and what that looked like for us

✔ The mistake I made in my own first two years here thatI have not talked about it on the podcast before.
