About this listen

 FROM BRITAIN TO SPAIN AND BACK AGAIN is Sam Haigh’s account of his family’s four challenging years in their new country, as he and his wife Emma do their best to build a life for themselves and their young son Luke. Wishing to do more than just get by, Emma and Sam try their hardest to progress in their respective professions – teaching and building – and live a similarly prosperous life to the one they left behind in Todmorden, Yorkshire. Arriving in the town of Ontinyent, Valencia in the summer of 2007, little do they know that a cataclysmic economic crash lies just around the corner. Undeterred, they soldier on and give it their best shot, before the day arrives when they have to weigh up the pros and cons of their decision. What comes first, sunshine or economic security? Would it be a failure to go back to England, or a rational choice? They like Spain and the friends they have made, but is it the place to be for an ambitious couple in their thirties? All these questions and many more are answered in this honest, down-to-earth account of one family’s experience of the Spanish dream. Entertaining and informative, it’s a must-read for all those people below retirement age who are thinking of upping sticks and heading south. Europe Travel Writing & Commentary England
