Moving to a different country: Spain/Gibraltar

[pauliewalnuts]

Well, if you choose Gibraltar, knowing Spanish wont be a big deal since it is an British territory and most everyone spoke English there. You could even buy stuff in GBP.

Keep in mind this was six years ago, so a few things mightve changed.

I travel to Spain all the time. I've encountered a lot of people that speak some english. Plus there are plenty of people from other parts of Europe that live there and speak english. My parents also don't speak a word of Spanish and manage to do just fine when they go there.

There are several areas in Spain where not speaking the language would be no impediment to leading a full and happy life, including a job. You can do it, but that doesn't mean it's to be done. As languages go, Spanish is easy to pick up and the people really appreciate when a foreigner makes the effort.
