Two Moms, Eight Kids, One New Home Country

How did we end up here? Why we chose to move our families to Valencia Spain.

In our first episode, we share why our families decided to move to Valencia, Spain — how the idea started, what helped us make the leap, and the conversations that ultimately led us here. We talk honestly about what surprised us most after arriving, the pleasant (and unexpected) discoveries, and the moments that made us stop and think, yes, this was the right choice. We also explore whether this move feels permanent, how our expectations compared to reality, and what experiences so far have validated our decision to build a life here with our families. Whether you’re dreaming of a move abroad or simply curious about what it’s really like to uproot a family and start fresh, this episode sets the foundation for everything to come.

Join an American mom of four and a British mom of four as we navigate life as expat families in Spain. From raising kids in a new country to juggling motherhood, marriage, friendships, and identity abroad, we share the real, unfiltered side of moving your family overseas. We talk about what we love about our new home, what’s challenged us the most, and what we wish we had known before packing up our lives. Along the way, we dive into family travel, cultural differences, school systems, and how to build a life that feels like home — even when you’re far from where you started. Whether you’re dreaming of moving abroad, already raising kids overseas, or just love honest conversations about motherhood and life transitions, this podcast is for you.
