FAMILY and friends of missing 32-year-old Mark Palmer say they are 'getting desperate' after several trips to the Ontinyent (Valencia province) area and are continuing to crowdfund expenses so as many as them as possible can go out searching for him.
Mark, who is suffering from depression, decided to move to Spain in search of a new life and happiness, but disappeared on April 27 in the inland Vall d'Albaida district.
He had previously sent a WhatsApp message to a friend saying he was 'sick of life' and 'had a rope, drugs and alcohol', and bidding farewell.
Mark may have been carrying a yellow rope at the time he vanished.

Mark, from Dunstable (Bedfordshire, UK) is described as being of slim build with very short ginger hair and a red beard.
