Thousands of young Spanish people are flocking to Mexico in search of jobs as the crisis in Spain is unlikely to improve in the near future.
Mexico, a country which shares historic and linguistic links with Spain, is seen by many as a favourable destination to find employment.
Mexico’s immigration office reported the number of Spanish granted work permits in the last quarter of 2012 was 7,630.
A recent official report estimated that last year, 166,000 Spanish between the ages of 16 to 24 left the country looking for work abroad.
