Welcome to Spain Hadar!

I'm from Barcelona. I've been living here for 70 years. Congratulations for your decission!! You're a very brave person. Remember that when hard moments come (if they come). People here always, always, always will help you & your family with the language or something else. I've learned a lot of English with you. Thank you and good luck.

I adore you with all my heart, I swear. Time will fix everything. You must have strength for your daughters' future.

Hello Hadar! Welcome to Spain. I'm a Venezuelan living in Sevilla. I felt sad watching you. I know what a difficult is to move to another country 😢 but you're a brave person. 🤗

The cat looks happy too!!!

Dear Hadar, you made my eyes watering, 😢 it was very touching, but very brave at the same time 💪🏽 I really admire you, and I wanna thank you for sharing your experiences because not everyone does that, for me it’s an honor to listen about it while I’m learning new vocabulary 😉 I wish you the best from my ❤️ and I hope everything will be okay with your parents and the rest of your family 😊. You are a Special person and an amazing teacher that we want you for long time. I’m Spanish speaker so let me know if I can help with something 😅 much love 💕

Dear Hadar, before watching the episode, I want to congratulate you for having 1 million subscribers. That's such an incredible milestone! 🎉🎉 Wish you continued success! ❤

Thank you for sharing your vulnerability during this tough time. Things will work great for you and your family.

Thank u for sharing your experience and feelings with us. The best of luck for you and your family. I wanna go on learning from the way you are facing hardship and life in general

Beautiful post! Welcome to Barcelona! Good luck ❤

Aww, Hadar 🥰 Thank you for sharing the process of making the decision and being audaciously vulnerable. You are so right with your intention - it's going to help somebody. Also, labeling it as "temporary" I think is a great decision as things change over time. Tasting waters, so to speak. And it might indeed be temporary. But if not, transitioning to "permanent" will be I guess a bit less mentally challenging then. I'm happy your family can visit. Or that you can visit your family. You know it's not always possible for others. Maybe, you can hold on tight to that thought to push through challenges. And be comforted by the fact that even though you see each other much rarely you still CAN see each other in person. Sending you love and light. Very excited about the series!

Blessings to all your family. It requires immense courage to make a move and transition to a new country. I wish you the best to all. 😊

I love the idea of you sharing with us your personal experiences that will be remarcable for all of us!

Welcome on board Hadar! ❤

Thank you for sharing Hadar. I am looking forward to more episodes about your new adventure. Sending love, support and strength to you and your family.

My beautiful Hadar, thank you for being so open and vulnerable with us. I know exactly what you are going through because I was there 11+ years ago, but I promise you things will get better. Love you :)!

Thanks for sharing your experiences with us. Very brave! Wish you all the best in this new chapter of life

Thank you for your candor, for being vulnerable with your students that you know adore and admire you so very much. God bless you, your family and keep you safe and in peace through this wonderful journey.

Wish you and your family all the best and good luck!!

Amazing testimony Haddar!! See you in Bcn soon!!!

Thank you for sharing your adventures, like you said, life is complex, but every opportunity to live it is wonderful. I wish you and your family a great learning time in Barcelona and peace for the world. 🙏💕🌷🌞

Congratulations on your new adventures! I wish you success in this exciting event. May luck accompany you and everything turns out well!

❤❤❤ me encanta esta nueva Hadar!! Ansiosa por oír más sobre tu relocation ❤

Sweet Hadar! I’ve got so emotional listening to your decision process, the whirlwind of emotions, and the vulnerability that you and your family are going through. You’re doing everything based on grounded reasons and, above all, you’re following your heart. You’ll never regret for following your purpose. I can relate so much with you. I moved out from my home country with my husband and our three daughters when they were similar age of yours (8, 11 and 14). It was a life-change experience, not easy at all. That was 9 years ago and we still struggle in some aspects (I even wrote to you once about that!). But now when I look back we have tremendous gratitude for the signs presented at that time, to have read them, and for being brave and have taken the decision to go ahead. As you said, it may not be permanent or it might be, who knows, but the important is to let your heart guide you - and I’m sure you’re doing that. The rest falls perfectly in place. Your family will be visiting you and vice-versa, of course not the same as living next door, but the distance also has its positive takeaways. You’ll make the most of the time when you’re all together. Congratulations on your decision, Spain is a magnificent place to live, despite the bureaucracy 😅 - but there is abundant sun, marvelous food, and warm people all around! One day I want to live there. Very happy you’re documenting your journey to inspire us all. ¡Viva España!

It's always beautiful to watch your videos!!! Wish you the best for you and your family in Barcelona!!! My prayers for you!!!❤ It's hard but everything happens for a reason. Keep having faith 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Many thanks Hadar to share all your emotions, hard decisions and challenges. As always, I am really inspired by you. Wish you all the best. The good news is that we as a human being are adaptable, so a year from now on, you may not feel attached with your previous life as I passed these steps of immigration to a new country. So I can feel what you are saying. But the most painful part, I mean leaving the family remains with us forever. It is the part that is going to be hurt for always.

Dear Hadar 💕 I feel your emotions, I have been there when I decided to move to Vancouver BC from Mexico City. It has been rewarding life experience, great experiences, new culture, people and hard time sometimes far from the familiar circle. Life is to short sister, you will be successful as you are now I have learned a lot from you 💓 I’m here to support you if you want to learn or practice Spanish ✨🙌🏼🤗 xoxo and love 💕

Hadar, you are such a beautiful person, inside and out. Thank you for sharing with us not just your knowledge and language skills but also being so vulnerable and real. Oh, I can relate to your emotions so much. I moved from my home country and my family in my early 20s. Still miss it.....Sending love your way ❤

I wish all the best for you and your family, that good things happen all the time and great experiences to come!!!You are a amazing person, help others a lot, so may life reward you with all the best!!!⚘️🌹

Hi Hadar, as your student, I've looked up to you from the first moment. You are such an inspiration and role model to me that sometimes I feel you are beyond normal. Thank you so much for your openness, for your doubts, for your process that you share with us. By showing us your vulnerability, you are actually showing us your strength and your brave heart, we can be inspired even more, if that is even possible. Thank you so much, I wish you the best of luck in everything new in your life and have a lot of fun at the Barca. Love you with all my heart ♥

OMG! Thanks for sharing your experience! ❤

Hey Hadar! First of all be hatzlacha for your new adventure! I've just completed my studies in English and Spanish and in April hopefully I'm gonna take my bachelor degree! Thanks to your video I learnt so much stuff in order to enrich my English and I'm grateful to you and your contents! Keep going on like this and kol akavod for everything!

Hadar! You nailed it again! So inspiring, so honest... and I could add more compliments...I have 2 kids and I totally resonate with you. I've been having this relocation idea in my mind for years..I can't wait for the next episode... Thanks for sharing your experience. Javi G

Hello Hadar! Welcome to Barcelona. I understand you. I think all the emotions and thoughts that come with moving to another country.I hope and wish that you feel at home here.

Im sooo proud of youu! you’re such a strong woman ❤️

Oh my god! What an ordeal Hadar! Can’t imagine what you and family had to go through. Hope you settle there smoothly without too much turmoil. Everything will work out. One thing at a time. Can’t wait to hear more about your life story. It’s like a reading a novel. Amazing story. Sending you lots of love.❤ Now we have to start to learn Spanish language from you! 😅

Thank you for sharing your story with us Hadar❤ I'm a newcomer to your channel and I've to admit it brings me enormous value and helpful tips in my English learning progress. While hearing your story I had only huge amounts of appreciation and respect for you, firstly for you as a teacher who never stops challenging herself and her students. Secondly, as a mother who fights and do amazing efforts of her family to have a better life and finally as a human being who is not afraid to share her experience and emotions with us - no less than total strangers. So I'll conclude I just wish only happiness and joy to you and your family in this amazing experience of relocating to a new country, and that I'll stay tuned for any new developments on your amazing and heartwarming channel.

Hi Hadar. I’m proud of you what you have done for you and your family. You left your comfort zone!! That must have been a tough decision, but you made it! Don’t regret your decision because you can go back to where you were if you really want it, but just see what is going on 1 or 2 years then you will really sure you made a good decision!! Good luck on your new journey ❤

Much love, Hadar ❤ My hugs go to you and your family 🤗🫂 I know you'll be doing amazing in Barcelona and any place in the world 🌎 Here's to new beginnings and new learnings and new unforgettable experience 🥂

I've discovered you just a few weeks ago, I practise with you every day and without knowing much about you I had the desire to know more about who Hadar is, as you transmit light. You got this Hadar!! 💪🏼 ❤ Loving you till the end 😊 (From a non native speaker who resonates a lot with your learning experiences)

Dear Hadar, Your words touched me deeply. You are an amazing, honest, and brave person. Whenever we have a strong desire for something, we are capable of achieving anything. There is no limit to our potential!

Sweet Hadar ❤ I just love you now more than ever! I'm really proud of you and you know what? You've made me cry with you! You're doing great! You really are! I'm so happy to be part of your great experience through your videos! You've made me love English through them and you've teached me a lot by them! I also started learning Spanish from scratch last September and now there you are! 😊 That's a sign!😉 I'm going to love your new contents❤

Congratulations on making the bold decision to start a new chapter in your life by relocating to Barcelona! Your willingness to embrace change and share your journey with others is truly inspiring. Embrace this new adventure with an open heart and mind, and continue to share your valuable insights and lessons learned.

I really did enjoy it 😍 and felt sad when I saw you shedding tears😥

Dear Hadar, the episode was so interesting. I wish you and your family the best in Barcelona and this is the time to think about opening a new language school. Que esten bien y espero que apredas mucho Espnol.

Hadar, since the war started, I've been thinking about you. I'm glad to hear you have relocated to another country. I totally understand what you are going through and the mixed emotions. I did it myself 25 years ago. It was not easy, but I have no regrets. You will find that this experience is going to enrich your life and your loved ones unimaginably. Keep going, persist, and don't give up. Sending your way tons of love all the way from Canada 🇨🇦. ❤❤❤❤❤

Thank you for sharing your emotions 🥰 . You allowed me to recognize that I'm not alone in my feeling.

Adar we love and I am sure that you and family are welcomed to everywhere that you would like to come ❤.

I feel you, Hadar! I’ve cried with you😢. Leaving behind your parents, your close family is the hardest decision. And the most hardest is when you can’t go back to give them the last goodbye…This happened to me three years ago😢. I wish you and your family all the best and good luck!!

Thank you so much for this episode 💛

I have to say that I LOVE this kind of video. Of course I love to learn English with you (I’m Brazilian), but have the opportunity to know this “part of you” will be amazing ❤

You're so authentic, and you deserve so much! My brother has been living in Barcelona for a couple of years now, and he loves it. I hope the city treats you just as well. I'm sure it will because you are strong and most importantly..you're smart. If you need any help learning Spanish, let me know - I teach English, not Spanish, but I could help :)

I just finished to watched your video and I you have a huge heart!! Everything is gonna be ok!!

Congratulations on your 1million subscribers. More growth 👏. Congratulations on your location. It's not easy. You will adjust & I wish you nothing short of the best & fulfilment.

Life is beautiful! You deserve that and more.

Hadar, congratulations on your family's successful relocation in spite of the unimaginable challenges and hurdles. Hope everything will go smoothly in the following months and years. 🤗 I totally understand your feeling of guilt in terms of missing your family, especially parents. 16 years later, I still feel the torn feelings. 🫂 Your parents want you to be happy and live a new life that you deserve.

Hadar, thank you for sharing your story. It's amazing. Thank you. You have chosen a great place, I'm sure you'll not regret. ❤

God bless you Hadar! You're a strong girl!😊

Hello dear Hadar! I admire you in every way. Thank you so much for sharing your personal life and feelings. Te deseo todo lo mejor para ti y tu familia siempre. Abrazos desde Oaxaca, México.

¡Mucha suerte en tu nueva aventura! Your videos are like a reflection of myself. I feel really identify with you and I wish one day I will speak English like you. The first time I saw one of your videos I thought you were Spanish. I have been living in UK for 10 years, I moved here on my own when I was 21, and now I have got to a point that, as a native spanish, I am tired of speaking like a robot. Rhythm, melody and stress words are so different! It has took me 10 years to really embrace English and I am going to do this! I just started university and I need to excel in communication! I have so many things to learn yet. I wish you all the best, I am glad you took the decision of moving, it is such a great experience and I can't wait to see your next videos. Living in the UK has taught me how Spain culture is so... "Old fashioned?" not sure how to explain it but I don't see myself living in Spain anymore. In UK I feel free, like you said at the beginning of this video, REINVENTION! In Spain, I feel trapped. I hope Barcelona treat all your family well. ❤❤❤

OMG! Congrats!!! You'll be OK! I can't believe you'll be learning Spanish!! I'm from Colombia BTW. Your story was thrilling so... I'll stay tuned! 😉

You are such a strong woman. You will be fine. Enjoy the process 😊

It’ll get easier with time. Take it one day at a time and don’t overthink things. Just go with the flow. Work on accepting your new reality. Don’t fight it! It’s ok to cry, regret, and feel sad. Lower your expectations and don’t compare the two places. Your mantra should be, it is what it is. The higher power is always with you. Take comfort in that. I’ve been there and I know exactly what you’re going through. You’re an entrepreneur. That means, resilience, flexibility, tenacity….is in your blood. All the best!

Dear Hadar loved this video. You showed your vulnerability to us, your people. Because when we start a new life we became vulnerable.. for a little bit🤣. It’ll get better and better every day 🎉👍🏼🎉👍🏼🎉

The Journey is your destiny, be strong and evrerything will be fine 🙏

Dear Hadar, Your vidéo is so emotional, touching. ❤️ I love you, your work, your energy, everything! I have always liked your podcasts and videos, but learning about your personal experience and new life in Barcelona would be great as well. It's always a pleasure to hear from you. The choice you made was difficult of course, but a good choice. It's just a step in your life. Good luck with your Spanish! 😊 With my best wishes.

❤ So nice to hear from you, Hadar. I admire you and always worry about you and your family with what is going on with Israel, ang Gaza. I'm so glad to know you are safe. 🇧🇷🩵

You are amazing!!!🤗

At the beginning I was asking myself what could be interesting about it but after listening a few minutes you just got me into your reality and made me feel identify with some of the different circumstances you're going through in a different country, sometimes is very scary when all the pressure and responsibilities not only for you but for the whole house are over your shoulders, I've moved to a new country almost three years ago and I felt very emotional listening and remembering a lot of the hard moments and memories but at the end you see how the opportunities are opening and the sense that you are making it has no price. Thank you for sharing your life

Ohhh my GOOOOOD, I'm so exited, my favorite teacher is going to learn Spanish my native language that's awesoooooon. I wish u the best and success ❤

So glad you're safe!!!!

Congratulations on your decision, Barcelona is a great place, I love it..!! I lived there for ten years and I met great people, I lived in Terrassa around 20 minutes from Barcelona, The language is not too complicated, 100 percent in a couple months you will catch it, God bless you and all your family, you helped me a lot with your English lesson if I can do anything for you just let me know, enjoy your time in a great place, you'll enjoy the theater during spring and summer I promise.

Thank you so much for sharing ❤.

What a beautiful video. Good luck in this stage of your life. The stories that begin with a napkin in Barcelona are a sign that something magical is going to happen. 10 :)

Un cálido abrazo de bienvenida, Hadar. Seguro que en España vas a ser feliz.

I SO love to listen more about your live. 😍😍💖💖💖💖 You know that you have a lot of spanish native students all around the world that we would be happy to help you with spanish (sorry but I dont know catalan)

Congratulations Hadar🎉❤

I change of country 4 times in my whole life, I know is hard Hadar but everything happens for a reason, you are a great woman, I can feel your pain and, I just wish all the best for you. I felt the same when I arrived to the USA lenguage is hard but Hadar you are helping a lot of people like me, this is great opportunity for you and your little girls to learn more and more. Trust in your decision, the Universe have a great plan for you my dear, I love you so much! I suppose that I have a lot of grammar mistakes right know but thanks you my lady I can be brave every single day more and more... Just trust Hadar, God bless you!

You are a very brave woman Hadar! ❤

Hadar thank you for share you and your family experience. I love it 🥹 Costa Rica sería un excelente destino para ustedes también.

Welcome to Spain !!!

"Hi Hadar! I completely relate to your situation. I've lived in three countries-born in the USA, raised in South America, returned to the USA in my 20s. Then, I fell in love with a Spaniard. After spending 20 years in the USA together, we decided to move to Spain. Now, in my late 40s, I'm starting anew! By the way, I’m in Zaragoza, in case you’re interested in exploring a different city.

I have moved few times to different countries. I hear you. The first time that I left my country of Origen, to live in another country, I was really scared. But you said something I agreed: everybody should live that experience even for few moths. You got this, Hadar. Huge hugs for you.

The first thing I want to say is thank you for your open, transparent and emotional podcast. You have very accurately captured the moments of making decisions with short time, feelings of guilt, gravitating towards the past life, and fears of living in new contexts. And especially about learning a new language. Thank you! I think I partially understand you. The war kicked off me out of my familiar and comfortable Kharkiv (Ukraine). My girlfriend, our cat, me, and two backpacks with only the most necessary things. That's it. All of our rituals (walks, a cup of coffee when a familiar barista is on shift) associated with the city, all of our belongings, our rebuilt life are now just memories. Today life in another country, with another language. It was hard. You can really feel the difference when you decide to immigrate and when you are forced to do so because your life depends on it. Well, enough about the sad. I look forward to hearing more stories from you, Hadar. About the visa, about the bureaucracy, and about building a future in sunny Spain. ❤

You are welcome to Barcelona. You are unique and adorable teacher, daughter, wife and mother. ❤

That was touching 😢 Welcome to Barcelona ❤️💙

The circumstances urged you to get away from the chaos. I cannot imagine a life well lived where you were. Here's to new beginnings 🥂.

thanks & see you soon ☺

Welcome to Spain Welcome to the planet it's your home. It's going to get better for everyone. I have been here five years and expect to see something new or fun each day. Beathe deep, life is good and will be for everyone. You are one of the people making it better.

That's a big lesson for those who don't think about the idea of leaving the comfort zone. Good luck and thanks for all Haddar

Bienvenida a España, Hadar. Although I will follow your classes wherever you are

Hi, Hadar!I'm exactly at that part where you found yourself in the impossibility of making a decision precisely because of your ties with your family - parents and nephew and niece and I just couldn't go any further watching.What gets me thinking though, despite of course my deepest admiration for your courage and determination to get along with your relocation plan, is what truly drives us to take action and to put it into practice.Bc, let's just be honest, there must be sth deep down and beyond to just make you want to leave your comfort zone with the nearest and dearest and take this new unknown bumpy route. I'm saying it bc it's happened to me sometime ... we either want to prove ourselves or out of "overachievingness"..it's just weird how we're making ourselves face up to such challenges, putting ourselves under huge pressure, God knows why... Those limiting beliefs you're talking about might only be a vicious circle after all, the way I see it. I wish you and your family best of luck in your endeavours, and may love and peace be always at the core of all your decisions!❤

So happy to see the cat❤ . What's his favorite language ? My cat likes italian. Thank you for sharing this experience. I'm fascinated. 😊

I love your story, I think because I'm also an immigrate in a country where I had to learn the language. I'd love more stories like this one. You should write a book 🙂

Dear Hadar, almost 6 years ago I was in a similar situation. I moved to Barcelona from Colombia (Spanish is my mother tongue) but, unlike you, I was single with no kids. Anyway, I understand that it's not easy to leave family looking for a dream. In my case, an academic dream. However, it's totally worth it, given the new experiences that we can live besides our main dream: knowing new people and cultures, travelling, making new friends, etc. I came back last year to my country, I lived 4 years in Barcelona, and it has been one of the greatest adventures I have had. I hope you tell us more about your experience there, I'm sure I'll feel identified with some of them. And please, tell us about your experiences dealing with both Spanish and Catalan 😊. Good luck!

As they say, life is a journey and we've got to enjoy every step of the way.

מזל טוב הדר מירושלים שלי. המון בהצלחה בספרד

Thank you for sharing your experience ❤ I'm really interested in what you have to say about your relocation because I am contemplating moving as well. Not to a different country though but to a different city. It is also a tough decision for me.

Dear Hadar, this episode’s been so touching and emotional. You won’t regret your decision! Thank you for sharing your feelings and always inspiring us ❤ Can’t wait for next Friday 🥰 Francesca
