Year in Spain 2019-2020, Isra and family, Boston, USA
We want to thank you for all that you have done to make this such a seamless, enjoyable experience for us. It was easier to find a home in another country with you, than we have finding right here in our own town! When we decided to make the move to Spain, I was completely overwhelmed and didn't know where to start. It almost seemed impossible to do anything from here. You were so patient with all of our questions about schooling and waiting to find that perfect home...four bedrooms and fruit trees?! Amazing! Thank you again |

Year in Spain 2018- 2019, Azra, Marty & Nina, Ireland
We moved to Granada on a whim, based on the magic of an extended weekend break three years previously. We are a family of three with a 10-month-old baby and none of us speak a word of Spanish. Looking for a house, renting one, finding out about how everything works, knowing how to navigate the new social and cultural environment with a baby—all this seemed Herculean tasks we didn’t really have the skills or time to cope with. That changed once we came across Bianca’s website while looking for a house to rent in Granada. She has a collection of homes in the Albaicin she has carefully sourced through her valuable contacts in the neighbourhood. Although we had scoured local websites for a house for months, we didn’t find anything we really liked, until Bianca’s website. About two months later, we are now living in the house we dreamed of — waking up to amazing views of the Alhambra from our windows every morning. Bianca facilitated contact with our landlords, drew up the lease agreement in Spanish, and provided valuable information and contacts necessary for settling into our new life. Moving hasn’t been easy, but without Bianca it probably would have been impossible.

Moving to another country requires a lot of planning, and one of the biggest decisions you’ll make is finding the right home. Hiring Bianca to help us find a place that ticked many of our boxes was one of the best decisions we made. She has been through this process herself and after living in the Albaicin, she’s familiar with the homes, the owners, and the ins/outs of the area. She certainly relieved a lot of the anxiety we were feeling about choosing a long-term rental from a short description and a few photos online. We are very happy with the house we’re renting and we love the neighborhood we’ve decided to live in. I highly recommend Bianca’s service. She’s professional, responsive, and has been a tremendous help to us in making our transition this year.

We found Bianca online and enjoyed her blog posts about life in Granada. She helped us narrow down our city, neighborhood and home allowing us to make living abroad a reality. Once we secured a house that would allow our dog to join us, we looked at schools. We chose to put our boys in a concertado (a former Catholic school now funded by the government) called Ave Maria Casa Madre in the Albaicin. Since our boys spoke a little Spanish and all three aged 4, 6, and 8 could attend (including our youngest who has Down Syndrome) it made walking the 5 minutes to and from school each day a family excursion. The boys made easy transitions and lots of friends which in turn helped our family find a community of locals. The Albaicin is like a little pueblo attached to the city. It sits on a hill opposite the Alhambra where locals and expats mix seamlessly. Our boys love to race through the maze of streets and play in the plazas. We moved here to find a slower, simpler life but we take every opportunity to travel around Spain and Europe. We do not have a car but find walking everywhere is fun and interesting. When we need a ride the taxies, buses and rental cars are easy and inexpensive. The swing in temperatures is extreme but the proximity to the Mediterranean and Sierra Nevada provide great opportunities to ski and hit the beach. Perhaps Bianca’s greatest gift to us was introducing us to other expats making similar transitions. Together we have enjoyed this beautiful city and the adventures that lie in wait. My husband likes to say Granada is a pretty lady with a dirty face. There is beauty everywhere you look and opportunities for a family to be together in a café, a park or just wandering through the labyrinth of undulating streets. Bianca can provide a great picture of life in the Albaicin that will help you decide whether the city and lifestyle is right for you. The expat community is vibrant and welcoming. Bianca’s ties to it will benefit all who hire her to help with their move.

"Bianca’s blog inspired us to move to Granada when we were looking where to spend a year in Spain, and then with her assistance the dream became reality. Bianca helped us find our beautiful apartment in the centre of Granada which was set up when we arrived. Everything went without a hitch and we liked Granada right from the start. She also recommended a terrific Spanish language school which is really good for those who like an intensive, fast paced but fun classroom environment. Bianca knows Granada well and those who come here will understand why there is such an attraction for this city."
