booster challenge

Next stop

In our last post we told you we are going to Spain. And we are!

There is only one stop before we can head off to Spain. We have to take….. the booster challenge!

Over the past weeks or maybe even months we have been searching in magazines, books and browsing the internet to decide on a plan for next year. Are we going to Andalusia/Costa del Sol or to Valencia/Costa Blanca. The past year we learned what is important to us, now we have to find the area that fits our wish list. Checking things like the climate in summer and winter….too hot in summer or not warm enough for the winter time. Mountains, hills, green areas or dry land. Pricing and facilities and so on. Busy area or less touristic but easy access if we want to.

Last week we finally found a place that we would love to rent for approx. 2 months. A period that we can relax, work and explore the area and maybe even go house hunting.

The house fits our profile for an extended stay. Enough space (30 sqm is nice for a week, but not for 2 months 😉 ), enough distance to other houses, a pool, close enough to a village or city. We have opted for the house and are now facing the next step.

The booster challenge

We can only go if we have received our Covid-19 booster injection. Not for Spain (yet), but as we are travelling by car we will drive through Belgium and France and we need a booster for those countries. Of course these are the regulations, if we will be checked is something we have to find out at the time.

Currently everyone should be able to get a booster in month 6 or 7 after the second vaccination. This means February or March for us. All we have to do is wait to get the invite. If only that was the case….
People are receiving and not receiving their invites or receiving it later. You can call, but only if you are of certain birth years.

Luckily (haha) the government is now promising that everyone is able to get their booster before mid March if they like. This would be perfect for us and our plans. So as you can see this is the booster challenge we are facing. We have everything planned and sorted out, the booster is the final step.

Vamos a Espana!
