    Good luck on your move & finding friends in Madrid! It is always a difficult part of moving abroad.

    I also wanted to recommend the EasyExpat guide to Madrid. It has info on transportation, housing, and entertainment.

    Hi Jelena,

    Great choice - Madrid is an authentic Spanish city, with lots of expats and firendly locals, so I'm sure you will settle in easily.
    
    I'm Pierre, and I help people moving to Madrid via blog.flatawaymadrid.com and I dedicate myself to advising them and find them flats with no fees since I charge landlords.

    Here's my email if you need anything: pierre-alban.waters@hotmail.fr.

    Hasta pronto,
    Pierre

    Hi,

    I'm also moving to Madrid in 2 weeks.

    I'm 26 from England and just started learning Spanish - would love to meet some people in the same situation to get to know the city.

    Seems like a lot of people arriving this month - if you have started getting together let me know, would be great to meet up.

    Thanks

    Alex

    Hi All,

    Appreciate some of you may have already started meeting up but thought I would throw it out there and see if you guys fancy meeting for a bite of this famous Madrid tapas next Sunday afternoon (25th Sep).

    If anyone is interested let me know and can arrange somewhere to go.

    Be cool to get a decent size group together as we all seem to be in the same boat.

    Thanks

    Alex

    Hi All,

    Ok had a few responses so there are a few of us in for some food on Sunday. Was thinking La Panza es Primero at 14.00 its on C/ Libertad 33 just around the corner from Chueca metro.

    Its a cool place I went to few weeks back when visiting and is great food at cheap prices. However its pretty popular so should book a table to be safe. If you can let me know if you are coming then will book up.

    Cheers

    Alex

    If it´s easier to contact me by email it´s lukebayliss1988@googlemail.com or you can add me on facebook- Luke Bayliss

    I think thats everything, looking forward to seeing some new faces on Saturday.
