Our YouTube channel "Between the Lakes" refers to the areas between the two great salt lakes in Torrevieja known as the blue lake and the pink lake.
We have done over 170 episodes since our first one on August 8th 2020. They vary in content from buying property in Spain to informative videos about the travel locator forms, the 90-day rule in the Schengen Zone, non-resident tax and travelling and exploring on our E-bikes "Between the Lakes" and beyond - plus others in Benidorm - all filmed in Costa Blanca. We have also done many shorts and live episodes on our youtube channel.
