Hello everyone, Just wanted to say hi - we (family of 4) are looking into moving to the Canaries at some point in the next 12 months or so, and I think we're going to be regular visitors to this forum  We are still trying to decide which island to go for, although it will probably be Tenerife or Lanzarote (or possibly Lanzarote for a few years, then a move to Tenerife when the kids hit their teens). I'm about to post a load of questions ... please be gentle with me ... Vicki |

Ah, just answered a similar post on another forum (different user name but you'll recognize the avatar). You'll probably find our site will give many of the answers you're looking for. http://www.lanzaroterelocation.co.uk/ (we like to describe it as honest and impartial, but you can make your own mind up on that - we are who we say we are and it's not a sales pitch I promise!) In respect of your other post, have a look at this page - http://www.lanzaroterelocation.co.uk/lanzarote/cost-of-living-lanzarote-calculator/Don't take it a a finely researched piece of work by a qualified accountant - but should give you a very rough guide (How long is a piece of string!)  |

It might well have been my post on the other forum Alan! I've already seen your relocation website and I am a huge fan - I've been glued to it for 24 hours It's all ammo in the war of persuasion which I'm waging against my husband, to get him to relocate. He's more than 50% there ... Thanks for all the useful info. |

I agree with your post on the other forum Alan, it's all about quality of life. I'm not looking for a cheaper life; I'm looking for a better balance. The Canaries win hands down.

Hi Elle,
Yes, it's a great site, I can write you a bit of blurb to that effect if you like.

Welcome aboard.
My partner and I made the move six months ago and havn't regretted one moment.
Mind you our kids are all growed up so slightly different I guess.
Good luck with whatever you decide.
Ray
