Finally here!

The title says it all :) We arrived to Spain at 2 o´clock in the night between Friday and Saturday and after the drive from Madrid to Villahermosa finally reached our destination at 7 in the morning. Today day has been a little tired for both of us for the little sleep we´ve had, but otherwise the first impression has been very positive and nice. The weather is very fine with about +32 celsius and lots of sun, the food is great and the family of Rocío has been very welcoming. Of course it needs a little adjusting to get used to a completely new environment, but with these circumstances it shouldn´t be too difficult. I will write more about these first days soon after I get the officialities over with and maybe also try to combine the whole process of moving to another country to a clear package from the paperwork-point-of-view. So far so good, but let´s see what happens when I encounter the spanish bureaucracy for the first time on Monday! These are exciting times :)

I'm glad to hear that you are safely there in one...or in two pieces. ;) Hopefully the stuff you sent there before via car/truck, arrived in the right address. Post some stories, news and feelings when you get the opportunity. Greetings to ALL. Have fun, don't burn yourself. T:Tuomo

Good to hear that you arrived to your new home. Me and microwave owen plus SURRRRRVOJA arrived to Helsinki late last evening after long rock weekend (Wanajafestival). This morning I went to grocery store and then in the middle of my shoppings I remembered what is waiting me at home... Greeting to Rocio, enjoy sun and Spain!

Hi! Good that you arrive to Spain, I hope it is fine with the paperwork. It is fine in Tampere, after you left were some sunny days but we have back the rain. Take care, you both. And see you.
