About this listen

In this candid episode we explore the real-life surprises and lessons we've learned since making the move to Spain. From our feline companions (old and new) adjusting to a new life abroad to our own struggles with picking up the language (spoiler: it’s harder than we thought), we’re sharing the things we wish someone had told us before we packed our bags.

We talk about the subtle art of distinguishing yourself as a resident, not a tourist, and why WhatsApp groups are an unexpected lifeline in your new community. We also reflect on the challenges of staying connected with friends and family across time zones, the importance of embracing what’s available locally instead of longing for what you left behind, and yes — the hunt for a decent selection of English books.

Whether you’re considering a move, already here, or just curious about expat life, this episode is full of insights, laughs, and a few “we had no idea” moments.
