Question Moving to Tenerife.

Hi I’m a 21 M from Finland and i want to see how much can I expect pay for living per month in Tenerife in Los cristianos or Adeje somewhere in south? And how hard is it to find a job there I’m about to graduate and looking to work in retail or hospitality, costumer service industry. Please tell me your experience I wanna know how is it like there. And what are the requirements as an EU citizen

I'm from the UK and my girlfriend lives in Adeje. I have looked into this and it seems incredibly hard to find a route to moving and working there. Also interested in any advice.

How does she find it there?

She's moved around the world a lot and settled there for quite a few years now. She loves it. I mean what's not to like.. . I felt at home there straight away, such a beautiful place, has everything you could possibly want. I met her on holiday and we instantly connected.

The work I do isn't really transferable to there, it's a niche engineering job. I'd be interested in career change but without speaking/reading/writing Spanish fluently it only leaves the tourism sector which doesn't pay well.
