Hi, my wife and I thinking of m9ving from belgium to spain. Calasparra caught my eye because of the town itself with its facilities abd services, and also the mix of spanish and other european nationals. We are of course nervous about moving, will we be alone without friends, can we access services if needed (medical as well as al other daily needs). It feels such a step into the unknown. I myself grew up in manchester but lived in belgium for 40 years. We are both 64 and pensioners. Any experiences of others who made the move and were aprehensive before moving are welcome. We are social but any tips about integrating into the area are welcome.

Hi, just for information, there appears to be lots of Belgians in San Pedro. In our block of apartments 90% are Belgian. Either you have a very good estate agent in Belgium or its coincidence?! Good luck
