Q. Hi, i would like to know if this is possible. i am 18 and want to move to spain and get a job, but i would like to live on a camp site in a tent. is this possible and can you get long term stay on campsites i.e. years, thanks and would like as much info on my idea as possible thanks
Answer
Well there are people living the whole year round on camp sites, where you can get long term stays at reasonable prices, but they live in caravans or mobile homes.
Otherwise we do have winters in Spain. Even if by the Med it doesn't mean snow and below zero temps, it means rain and cold nights.
You'll get a pneumonia by november.
You can check if some camp sites will hire their bungalows for long term, it might be cheaper than an apartment, I don't know, really. Probably not a big difference to the price of a small studio or apartment in a non-fashionable place.
And of course you'll need a car or a motorbike if you live in a camp site. The public transport in those areas is far from the good service in bigger towns, where you have buses every 5 minutes.
As for getting a job in Spain... sorry, but unless you have an excellent education and a lot of experience in a specific and demanded field (and you're too young to have that) AND speak Spanish fluently, you hardly have a chance. The unemployment rate is getting close to 30%.
If you have connections and someone has offered you a job for the summer season at some tourist resort, asked them to help you find a place to live.

Best Camping in Arizona?
jancanyon
Hi! My friends and I were going to go hiking in a week to Havasu Falls and then camp out. The only problem is that one girl hurt her back (but already paid for the plane ticket to Arizona). Is there an awesome place to camp in Arizona that doesnt involve hiking 10 miles down a canyon with a heavy pack?
Answer
There are many great places to go camping in Arizona that do not require backpacking. The biggest limiting factor for next weekend is weather since it is already getting a bit warm for camping in the lower desert areas.
The rim country north of Payson is pretty nice. There are a number of small lakes along the rim where you camp out either by the lake or just about anywhere in the nearby National Forest. The few established campgrounds (all of which are pretty 'rustic') will be pretty busy with the three day weekend, but if you don't mind just throwing a tent off the side of a dirt road somewhere out in the forest than your options are pretty limitless. Areas to consider include Woods Canyon Lake, Knoll Lake, Bear Canyon Lake and Will Springs Lake. All are just above the rim, north of Payson. If you are not familiar with the area, than you will need either Forest Service maps (Coconino and Tonto) or the DeLorme Arizona Atlas.
Another neat area that is at nice cool elevations is the area around Aztec Peak in the Sierra Ancha Mountains east of Lake Roosevelt. Along the road from Lake Roosevelt to Heber (AZ288) is a turn off to Workman's Creek and Aztec Peak. Worksman's Creek usually has at least a trickle of water even in summer and at 8,000 feet elevation, Aztec Peak is quite cool in the pines with excellent views. This is pretty far off the beaten path (about 3 hours from Phoenix) and you should have maps with you.
Just about any place that is covered by National Forest will allow you to camp out anywhere you want down a dirt road (unless there are extreme fire restrictions in place). The biggest challenge is find a nice place near water - those places are much more rare in Arizona and will generally be popular with other people too.
Finally, I might note that if you have the money for it, you should be able to hire a helicopter to take your friend down to Havasu village near the falls and campground (there is a helicopter service that routinely takes tourists in and out of the canyon). That way the rest of you could hike in and she could meet you there. Just a thought. A somewhat cheaper option would be to have them pack her gear in on a mule (again, you can hire this service from the Indians) to make it easier on her. The first mile of trail is pretty rough (descending into the canyon), but the remaining hike along the stream bed is long, but not really difficult.
