When my Mom goes over to Spain she is going to find out what it means to be an expat. Leaving behind all the things that are familiar to you, family and friends, local shops, the way people drive - everything is different. I know she says that she is going to try and make it more than just a holiday home, but I reckon she will be back here pretty quick.
It is always nice going on holiday and leaving the stress of everyday life behind for a few weeks, but when you move somewhere then you have to build a life there - without your normal support network.
Finding out about expat jobs, health and tax. etc can be pretty hard too, especially when you don't speak the lingo!
