Discovering Life in Lanzarote Villas
What It's Like to Live in a Lanzarote Villa
Summary:
You've invested in a beautiful villa in Lanzarote and dream of living under the sun. But is this new lifestyle really for you, and will it truly surpass your experiences in the UK?Key Points:
Living in Lanzarote can be a dream come true for many, but it's essential to know what to expect to ensure a smooth transition. As a frequent contributor to forums for UK expats, I've noticed three main reasons why some decide to return home sooner than anticipated.
1. Adjusting to Life Abroad
While the appeal of endless sunshine is undeniable, some find out that life in another country doesn't automatically equate to a better lifestyle than in the UK. Missing family and familiar environments can become overwhelming. To test the waters, consider renting a villa for six months before fully committing. Remember, with family just a short four-hour flight away, occasional visits are a possibility.
2. Choosing the Right Community
Choosing the right location is crucial. If you don't speak Spanish and prefer the company of fellow expats, opting for a village with no expat community might lead to feelings of isolation. Seek out urban areas with thriving expatriate communities for easy integration. Conversely, if you aim to immerse yourself in local culture and language, a village setting might be ideal. Also, keep in mind that busy tourist areas like Puerto del Carmen might not suit those seeking tranquility.
3. Financial Preparedness
Financial struggles are a common hurdle. Without fluency in Spanish or specific in-demand skills, securing well-paid jobs can be challenging. Bring enough savings to support you for at least a year, and prioritize learning the language. Although some costs like petrol and taxes are lower compared to the UK, the overall cost of living can be similar. If entrepreneurship excites you, there are opportunities in property management and other developing sectors.
Final Thoughts:
Before making the move to Lanzarote, make sure to do thorough research, save a sufficient amount of money, and start learning the language. With the right preparation, Lanzarote can offer a fantastic lifestyle that thrives under the sun.
