My wife and I have just put our house up for sale here in the Algarve in Portugal (east) because of getting older and too far from amenities. It's beautiful here, very quiet and walking (with 2 dogs) without seeing anyone is quite normal. I have my heart set on Corfu but my wife says (she's read up on it) that it's more expensive than Portugal. But I noticed online somewhere that Corfu, in general, is just a little more inexpensive than here in the Algarve.
Who can give us some good, honest advice about the cost of living in Corfu? Tell us about the weather, the culture, wildlife (in particular reptiles) etc.
Does anyone live in the south near the lake? It's probably more flat there so that one can ride bicycle.
