    Excellent, very informative as usual. We’re really enjoying your visits to towns around the Costa Blanca. I really appreciate the effort you put into these videos, the drone work has also improved massively - great work Andy 👍.

    Having watched this video again and spending multiple hours searching for ideal locations to live etc - We narrowed it down to Dona Pepa, Benijofar, possibly Los Montesinos. We are back in December for the whole month. Hasta Pronto ❤ OR El Raso that’s another possibility

    • @britslivinginspain

      Of those, the "Spanish feel" will be from Benijofar and Los Montesinos. We will possibly do a video on El Raso in the future.... thanks for watching 👍

    Nice one again Andy and Helen, yes can vouch for this area and there are lots of places you mention in your videos that are not far away are they? For those who might like to know there is a bus service to Quesada from Torrevieja so if you want to explore on foot or take a day out its a doddle.
    Thanks for bringing us this.

    Interesting! What's the biggest expat community in Quesada? We don't know yet Spanish but plan to learn in the future...Are most people speaking English there? Also, is it too far away from the beach?

    • @britslivinginspain

      @@britslivinginspain Thanks! Is Orihuela Costa and Quesada the same thing regarding the expat population, proximity to the beach, shops, etc? We're looking to buy a house in that area, and want to be in an international community where English is spoken.

    • @britslivinginspain
      @britslivinginspain  5 месяцев назад +1

      @SycAamore most of orihuela Costa is closer to the beach, as a rule, plus generally more commercial centres etc. All have expat communities, to a certain degree. Parts of orihuela Costa are more "tourist based" ie. Places close in the winter. Both cover big areas and have their different "sub communities" of areas etc. (Not to be confused with communities)- if you're ever in the area of our office can explain easier in person. Those areas you definitely want to visit to get "a feel" of the area and communities living in that area, as what is right for 1 person is not right for another... it also depends if for permanent living, or for "holidays"- and then it also depends on time of year you are going to visit. We can't cover any of that on videos, unfortunately.. its personal preference.

      Not sure, but if you go to the poligono (industrial estate) in Los Montesinos (about 10 minutes away) there's a Bodega called Alvibe- they provide a LOT of bars around the area and tend to have stuff you wouldn't normally find...
