How did we end up here? Why we chose to move our families to Valencia Spain.
In our first episode, we share why our families decided to move to Valencia, Spain — how the idea started, what helped us make the leap, and the conversations that ultimately led us here. We talk honestly about what surprised us most after arriving, the pleasant (and unexpected) discoveries, and the moments that made us stop and think, yes, this was the right choice.We also explore whether this move feels permanent, how our expectations compared to reality, and what experiences so far have validated our decision to build a life here with our families. Whether you’re dreaming of a move abroad or simply curious about what it’s really like to uproot a family and start fresh, this episode sets the foundation for everything to come.
