Been going to Ibiza for holidays for 7 years now. I feel very convident of knowing the island like the back of my hand. Every time i lay on the beach out-side Bora Bora iv always said I will live there. Until early last year when I got a little lucky in a poker tournament which left me mortgage free. With my house up for sale now and offers coming in, I know this is for real, Someone asked me a while back if I was nervous, I laughed because iv never felt such anxiety in wanting the house to be sold an me saying Bon Voyage to RAINY Belfast for good. Id go tomorrow if i could.
My situation was made a little easier by strking it lucky but my situation is also in a postion were im leaving nothing behind ( apart from cloudy rainy skies ). Im 25yrs old, Iv no bro's or sisters, And lost both my parents to cancer in last few years. Like probably 99% of other bitish people I am feed up wearing coats and scarves 7 months a year.
My plan has been in action for nearly 2 months now and I have been weighing up costs and all sorts, But basically as soon is I get all furniture sold and contract signed with money in my account im setting sail.
I will be travelling the whole way with a van for which the only necessities im bringing is my gym equpitment and 1 double bed ( cause its comfiest bed in world )
Iv always acted on impulse always travelled and find what works for me is planning wots needed ahead, but leave plenty of time for impulse. ( male intuation I call it )
I will not be arriving in Ibiza with degrees or cirtificates. My only advantage is wot a wise man once said. "Trust no-one but your own two hands". By that i mean For work Id dig holes in the golf course's Clean the gutters of Ibiza, Paint walls or cut gardens. No-more than 5 days a week.
Il be renting first few months whilst continuesly looking for a place to call home. This is advice i get from everyone.
So if anyone knows of any short term rentals, relaible Estate Agents/Solicitors or Possible permenant jobs id be very happy to listen.
Any other advice will be appreciated also.
I have been viewing this site for sometime now but this is first post of many.
Do have a good day.
