Hello all.
This is my first post on here and I'm looking for some information if anyone can help.
My wife and I will be taking early retirement soon and we are exploring options for relocating somewhere a bit warmer and with a better quality of life than in the UK. Tenerife is high up the list and we think we will be able to afford to buy a small property and still keep a property in the UK.
From what I have read in the various posts on here, we think we will have enough retirement income and savings to manage but would like to have the option to earn additional income, probably on a part time basis.
So, my enquiry is about whether we would be able to find work that we could do. My wife and myself are OFSTED registered childminders and we currently run a successful home business in the UK. Is there much work for childminders/babysitters in Tenerife?
I am also an experienced and qualified astronomer and Tenerife is a dream destination for its dark skies- is there any work for experienced stargazing tour guides or opportunities to start a business doing this or perhaps setting up a public observatory?
Any advice greatly appreciated!
