Me and my wife are looking at moving to tenerife with out 3 year old from the uk. We are in the process of selling our home and instead of using the large equity for another home we are wanting to start a life abroad. We are initially going to go Into long term rental. Once we have established our selves we are hoping to purchase some kind of business to enable us to work for our selves. Can anyone recommend an area for us that would be driving distance to the international school. Any advise would be greatly appreciated

Welcome to the Forum :)

Why would you want an international school? They are expensive for one matter and with a young child, it would be better to go to a local school and learn the Spanish language.

Hi there thank you for your responses. I just thought a British school would be easier for the little one to settle in. Is tenerife a good place to move?

I living there for 5 years, areas for living is depend from personality who want to living there.
For me personally this is a Los Cristianos and Las Americas.
Our son driving to the school with scooter but before hi can drive with scooter, hi use the Wingate school bus.
For my opinion - the best place for long term living in Tenerife is a Playa de Los Cristianos.
You can go on the street in every time and can socialize with residents or just walking on the beach side pedestrian walk or going some restaurants.

Hi,


Relocating to another country can feel overwhelming at first, especially when there are so many decisions to make at the same time.


From what I've learned so far, one of the best pieces of advice is to spend some time in the area before making any long-term commitments. Daily life can be very different from what we experience during holidays.


My family and I are also researching a future move to Tenerife, and I find that hearing real experiences from residents is often more valuable than reading official guides.


For those who have already made the move: what was the biggest surprise during your first year living on the island?
