Hi everyone. I will be renting an apartment in Valencia beginning the second week of February. I visited the area 3 years ago, to visit my live-in housekeeper's family, and really enjoyed it. About a year and a half ago, my housekeeper decided it was time to come home to Valencia for good, as her daughter was turning 18. I knew the time was right as she spent 13 years with us, and definitely has one of the nicest homes in town. My family misses her immensely. So all my friends here in NY vacation in Florida to escape the cold NY Winter. I'm going to try out Valencia. My biggest issue is setting up a remote office, and I have asked for advice on Internet providers in another post. Hopefully we will cross paths when I arrive. Until then, greetings from New York!!
Welcome! I always find it a bit sad that someone has to leave their family for years to support them and miss seeing their kids grow up. I guess with the pervasiveness of the internet is not quite as bad as it used to be, but it's still a huge sacrifice in my book.
