He loves it. The way I see it is if you have a house here and enough equity to buy a place in Spain cash, you don't need to earn fortunes to live. The cost of living there is cheaper and there's so much less stress. My brothers other half is Spanish and they are thinking about selling their place in Windsor (worth fortunes) buying a place in Spain cash and then buying a 1 bed place here and get the mortgage on that.

Makes sense.
