Hi Mers, Ah, so you did the half EU and half Philippine lifestyle. How was it? What were the pros and cons of doing so back then?
I recently met ladies at a party who live in France and they're in the Philippines maximum of 1-2 months annually because of work but they're happy and content with the setup.

25 years is a long time living in Southern Spain. Did you miss it when you were away? You must be going through a downsizing process along with the preparations for selling your property.

My in-laws sold their home for that very reason - healthcare facilities when they retired and also to be closer to community activities etc. They managed to move to a coastal town that has everything they need yet is still quiet.

Thank you very much for your thought-provoking comment. The pandemic made my husband now open to that idea. I hope we have a better picture of what happens this year and I hope all goes well and smoothly with your plans of moving.
