In this video I try to answer a question that I keep asking myself: why are we really moving to Spain? As I explained in my last video, we have decided that we are going to give it a try, but every now and then, I wonder whether we are doing the right thing.

So in this video I talk honestly about the reasons behind our decision.

I speak about freedom, about not having many ties in England, about wanting my wife and I to have a good life, and about wanting to try a different way of living. I also talk about creativity, adventure, regret, the weather, and why I want to show my children that there is more than one way to live a good life.

This is not really a video about Spain. It is more a video about trying to build a meaningful life when you do not feel settled in the conventional sense.

If you have ever moved abroad, started again, or made a decision that felt brave and frightening at the same time, I would love to hear from you in the comments.
