Geia sas,

I am from Holland and will be moving permanently to Athens end of February 2003, I have lived in Greece before (20 yrs ago) for 2 yrs and since that time I visited Greece many, many times. I am familiar with the language and culture. My husband is Greek.

I would really like to get to know other people who made the move to Greece, or are planning to move to Greece.

And ofcourse, all advice is welcome!

I too am moving to Greece in 2003, however 3 hours outside of Athens, in the Peloponnese. I am married to a Greek fellow for 29 years. We are moving to the village he was born in. In 1993 I spent 3 months in Greece, alone. I do not speak the language but found anyone younger that 30 to do so. I had no problems adjusting. Can't wait until I am there full time.
My Mother-in-law lives in Athens as does my Brother-in-law.
