Starting Our New Life in Greece 🇬🇷 Moving to Corfu?
Vložit
- čas přidán 6. 07. 2024
- Surprise! We're back in one of our favourite countries, Greece! But this time we're back in a new region for us the Ionian Islands and visiting the island of Corfu for the first time.
We moved around a lot in Italy but in Greece we want to slow down and find out what it's like to live here. In this video we're talking about all the reasons we love Greece and why it's one of our favourite places, and also trying to decide if we want to stay on Corfu for awhile or go to another island.
We're in the town of Roda, exploring the town and the beach. As we walk around we stop at a beach Taverna for our favourite coffee drink a Freddo Cappuccino.
We also take you to our apartment rental in Roda, Corfu. Book this studio apartment here:
www.booking.com/hotel/gr/kall...
Later we head out again for sunset and to get a drink on the beach and go to Laluz Beach Bar & Restaurant. Here we try their own Spritz which is made of a couple of Greek spirits including mastika and a liquor from Corfu made of Kumquat.

Who is excited for Greece?! 🇬🇷🤗 Thank you for all your amazing love and support! If you'd like to join our CZcams Channel here (and get access to exclusive content) click here 👉 czcams.com/users/delightfultravellersjoin Stay Delightful! ✌- Anna & Trevor
My home from home, got married in Corfu town in June this year, love the place 😁 and yes you are right the north west of the island is full of us British 🤣
It sure is full of Brits! Hehe - Anna
@@DelightfulTravellers Corfu was owned by the UK in the 1800s and Queen Elizabeth husband was born in Corfu!
Greece is just paradise, the light, the blue colour of sky and the sea, the hospitality of its people.... getting tears in my eyes from describing... and I'm here: in Greece🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏😉
And the food!!!! Delicious!!!
Coming winter, I'd recommend that you explore mainland Greece more, late autumn and early winter are ideal for that. You're a ferry ride away from Igoumenitsa, so Epirus and Western Macedonia are at the palm of your hand. Try Parga, Syvota (beaches), and the beautiful city of Ioannina, go to Dodoni with the ancient Oracle, Zagorochoria, Metsovo, Vikos Gorge, Kastoria, Florina, all winter and mountainous terrain will give you another feeling of mainland Greece you possibly did not believe existed. I know that being from Canada you may not miss the cold, but I think it's worth exploring.
Good to know thank you for all the tips! 🤗 - Anna
@@DelightfulTravellers yes take with you winter tires cause the snow can cover you in mainland greece
As an American living in England, Brits definitely love the sunnier warmer climate! My hubby and I are are currently touring Athens and the food and history has captured us…we will definitely be back! Can’t wait for this series!❤️🇬🇷
Have so much fun in Athens! We really like that city 😊 - Anna
Stunning Greece !!!! Food , culture , not expensive !!’ Hospitality ! ❤
It’s the best! - Trevor
Thank you for coming back to Greece. Corfu is VERY beautiful but maybe you have to consider that it's the most rainy place in Greece. It could be a little melancholic during winter.
Also smaller islands, like Cyclades could feel a little remote during winter.
For a permanent settlement I would recommend Crete which has EVERYTHING you may wish or a tour in the Peloponnese which is a real diamond, a hidden treasure, which feels like an island in many places, extraordinary landscapes, beaches, historical places etc.
You may check a video called: "Peloponnese, Greece beyond the obvious " to see what I mean.
Well, if you're here for the fall, we would suggest to start visiting mainland Greece, especially the little beautiful villages on the mountains. Check out Zagorochoria, the villages north of the amazing town of Ioannina with its lake (which you should also visit) as well as the mountain villages around Karpenisi and the Peloponese (like Vytina, Dimitsana, Stemnitsa) or Kalavryta or Trikala of Corinth with the amazing lake Doksa nearby. There's tons to see in the fall and the winter months in mainland Greece besides the islands. Greetings, Mirella and Panos!
Thanks for the tips and for watching! 🤗 - Anna
GREECE! I’ve never even been there but I’ve already fallen in love 😍 🇬🇷. I’m ecstatic that I get to tag along and experience Greece through your videos, perhaps being able to make it there in person one day! Oooh, I’m so excited 🤩.
Colleen you would absolutely luv this country - Anna
Hi guys. I know the feeling you describe when going back to Greece. Hard to describe but definitely a good ,relaxing feeling. My favourite island is Crete, where I think I could live full time. Food, weather and laid back atmosphere. Haven’t been to Corfu so looking forward to your upcoming videos. Cheers, Dan. ✌️🇨🇦
We absolutely loved Crete as well. Greece is such a special country ❤ 🇬🇷 - Anna
my fave is Rhodes!
We are with you!!! Greece feels like home to us too! We love Crete, would love to buy a second home there one day! You guys are happy in Greece and it shows great video guys!! ~Cara 💖
(I was so disappointed when I took a DNA test I was NOT Greek!🥲)
I think the DNA test was wrong 😉 We so love Greece and can't wait to see more of this place - Anna
The people of Corfu have such warm hearts (and in Greece in general) You will find American and Australian travellers on the west coast of Corfu in summertime. Have an amazing time guys❤
People from Corfu have been so nice! We can’t wait to explore more of the island 😊 -Anna
Well done guys for your important decision to move to Greece. We are anxiously awaiting your videos about Corfu, its history, its food and its natural beauties. And why not, the first Greek words! I hope you have a great time there!
Thanks Liana.. we did try to learn Greek in our Thessaloniki video a few years back. It's not easy 😅- Anna
I'm now in Corfu for the 2nd time and I'm in love with this island!!!
Have so much fun 🤗 - Anna
Welcome to Corfu! it's a beautiful island. I made the decision to move here 12 years ago within a few days and never looked back. Best decision of my life clearly!
Amazing! Where did you move from? 🤗 - Anna
@@DelightfulTravellers originally from Vienna, Austria. First to Athens for 18 months and then to Corfu! 😊
A bit late to the video this week but better late then never! I’m so happy you guys chose Greece! It’s very very high on my travel list. I can’t wait to see more of it. Every one has always said Greece is amazing. ❤ Let’s go!
Put it right at the top of your list Matty. There's so much to do and see here. Plus islands everywhere! 🤙 - Trevor
I totally share your feelings about Greece. It's just that wonderful energy that makes it easy to connect to that place. If you are looking at Greece in terms of a long-term stay, I suggest you go a lot more to the south. My favorite island is Skiathos, but it's not good for the cold part of the year. If you are considering mainland, then perhaps Kalamata or Volos would be interesting options for you. If you want to experience the beauty of living on a greek sland all year round, then the best place is Agios Nikolaos, Crete. Good luck with your fascinating quest!
Such great advice. We've been on some southern islands before and they would be much better in the extra cold months. We'll be out of Greece by that point either way ✈- Trevor
Yep! And the villages near Volos, on the Pelio mountain are so amazing (Makrynitsa, Portaria, Milies, Vyzitsa, Pinakates etc)!
Hi there,
My husband and I moved from Germany to Corfu in 2019. We live here in Moraitika in the south of Corfu 🥰 It is a dream to live here 🥰🇬🇷
Oh wow.. what a move! We don't know of that town but we'll be sure to look it up - Trevor
greece is so beautiful! I've gone to rhodes three times now staying this time for almost 3 months and it's just such an amazing country 💛
Enjoy Rhodes! We really like that island as well. Especially Lindos 🤙 - Trevor
still there???
@@danielaamritha340 yes :)
Rhodes is awesome!
Splendid place and weather.. here in Italy we are having the same hot weather🌊🌅⛵
Yes the weather was great in Italy and now just as good here in Greece 🤗 - Anna
Welcome back to Greece! So happy I found your channel💖We are a Canadian family who moved to Greece last year. My husband has come back to his birth place and we are waiting for permits to start building small suite rentals.We live on the island of Thassos. Most northern island in Greece, called the Emerald Island by tourist. It's wild here! Not as developed like other greek islands. We have four seasons and snow for about a week in January. Thassos has many beautiful beaches and amazing mountains for hiking! It's the best kept secret island of Greece! I'm enjoying watching your channel. God Bless your travels💐
Welcome to the channel. We haven't been to Thassos but we were in Kavala once which is close 😀 Lots more on the way here from us - Trevor
All greece has 4 seasons. Go to mainland greece which is the continuation of dinaric alps and you ll be covered up in snow several times in winter. Go to Florina and see for yourself
Wooo so excited you guys are back in Greece and choosing it to live in! We definitely miss the freddo cappuccinos, all the food, and the cats. Thanks for the introduction to Corfu! Excited to see more of the island and see where you guys settle.
Omg the cats and coffee right? We’re really liking this island so far 🤗 - Anna
Just awesome! We love Greece, I am excited to see Corfu and more. May your time in Greece be as delightful as you are!
Awe thanks you guys 🥰 - Anna
we have been to skiathos ,skopelos,santorini,corfu,crete rhodes ,symi mykonos islands and they are ALL AMAZING
Good to know! :)
Greece is great... you're taking us back to when we visited Santorini. Thanks for showing us around! 😊
Thank you both for describing my country so beautifully!! Enjoy your journey ⛵
❤️🇬🇷
@@DelightfulTravellers ❤️
I love Corfu. It's wonderful all year round.
Welcome to Greece guys, nice to have you here 🥰
🤗
Greece is the place. Thank you for bringing us along for the ride. Afgaristo Poli.
Thanks for watching! - Trevor
Hello fellow Canadians ! As a greek who did my MSc degree at Queen's U., Kingston, Ontario, Canada more than 30 years ago (my god time passes) I welcome you (again) to our beautiful country!. I have watched many videos of yours. You are very cool!. However, I must say that you do not have the maple leaf on your back packs ! 😀
Since you are going to stay for 90 days in greece I suggest you to go to Zagorohoria villages. It is just across Corfu!. It is THE best time of the year for this. You will visit the world's deepest gorge (vikos gorge, yes it is not grand canyon, check it on wiki !) and 2nd longest one in Europe (1st one is again, where else, in Greece, Creta !) and the most crystal clear water that you can find in a river (Voidomatis) being a natural habitat of wild life like wolves and bears. It will totally change your perception about the Greek landscape. Do this and thank me later !
So many great tips here! Thank you. Hope things are great back in Canada 😀 - Trevor
Can’t wait to see your new adventures in Greece! Have a blast!!
🎉 lots coming up Janice! - Anna
Hey Guys..love your videos..Corfu looks stunning..looking forward to more videos from Greece..enjoy your time there...greetings from Sydney Australia
Thanks so much! 😊 We so can't wait to share more - Anna
Glad your back on the worldwide road! I’m once again going on the journey with you 🤗 Cheers 🥂
We've never got off the worldwide road Teresa 😉
Love y’all and your channel. Can’t wait for Greece series 😀
🤗
Such a beautiful place. Enjoy and thanks for sharing.😎
Thanks for always watching and commenting Eleanor 😊 - Anna
I loved my time in Greece and it is my favorite country I have visited! Can't wait to see your vlogs here.
Lots coming up! Get ready 🤙 - Trevor
Not hard to tell how happy you are to be in Greece! Excited for this series 🙌
It's so good to be back! 🇬🇷
I’d love to go to Greece 😍 it looks absolutely gorgeous I wish you both a wonderful future
It's so beautiful Angie. We can't wait to share more of the series - Anna
Have you been to Lefkada? You're very close to it being in Corfu! I highly recommend! It's very beautiful and truly has some of the most breathtaking beaches. I wish you much happiness as you seek out a home in Corfu!
Excited for you guys!!!!! Love what you do
🤗
So happy to see you happy! Haven't been to Greece yet , but enjoying following my fellow Bluenosers around. xxoo
Woohoo 🎉 We’re so happy to be here and that you’re following along Janice! Thanks for being a channel member - Trevor
I was hoping it was Greece. Nice video. Great info. Looking forward to more. Thanks and take care.
So much more on the way Karen. Get ready! - Trevor
Looks amazing! You’re living the dream . Cant wait to see everything 🇨🇦
🥰
found you just now and like the relaxing vibe you have. I am in Gozo/Malta 3 years now and was 7 years bevor in South-Central America. was long time ago in Kos and Kreta. loved it and one day I want to move again to? still open. I am from Switzerland and left for good 2012. reached 67 and still want to explore.......laughing. blessings
Welcome to our channel Sonja 😀 We're so happy you found us! - Trevor
Can’t wait to see this series, love Greece
Lot's more on the way 🤗 - Anna
Enjoy your travels in Greece! Looking forward to more vlogs!
Thanks so much June! - Trevor
Ah totally relaxed guys! Yes, this is it, you’re there to stay! Happy days!
So relaxed over here. What a treat it is to be back in Greece Helen 🤗 - Anna
I love visiting Greece as well. My favourite islands are Crete, Ios and Santorini. Have a wonderful time exploring!
We've been to 2 of those islands. Will look up Ios a little more - Trevor
Have fun guys🌹👍👍👍🌹🌹🌹
As a Greek I am so proud that you love my country so much. Go visit the hidden gem area of Northern Greece in Macedonia especially during the fall and Christmas season! I am from the Prespa lake region and it is beautiful! As for the islands you really should go to Kea. It is so mystical and underrated. It is also a 35 min ferry ride from the mainland.
Thanks Nick.. we've been coming to Greece for many years now and it's one of our favourite countries 🤗 - Anna
Awesome to see you guys in Greece! We were in Corfu a few months ago. Just missed you!
We looked into going to the north of Corfu but we booked last minute and it was quite expensive with not many places left. Good thing you're there in the shoulder season. Looking forward to seeing more of your Corfu videos 😀
If you do decide to head inland, we really loved Ioannina. It's got a more local vibe, which we quite enjoy and it's a foodie paradise.
Oh too bad we just missed each other. Where are you guys at these days? Hope you're well 😀
@@DelightfulTravellers we hope our paths cross one day. We've finally made it back home to Sydney Australia. It's nice to be home, but part of us is really missing travelling - especially when watching your Europe videos!
Wow. What a beautiful place!
🥰
You're correct Trevor - we are excited you guys are back in Greece! We only spent 1 day in Corfu, Old Town. Greece is pretty much tied for favorite country for us, with Italy. We love everything GREEK! We cannot wait to go back, so will live vicariously through you and Anna. - Coreen
Hey guys! Wasn't Corfu Town the best?! We had a lot of fun exploring that place and of course this island 😀 - Trevor
Great video guys and it looks beautiful!!! And a nice beach!!! I envy your life, you have worked hard to have it so enjoy it all!!! Looking forward to more videos.
Thanks Christina... hard work pays off for sure. So happy to be here - Anna
also some some dodekanes islands have white houses: Astypaleia for example, which is really magic. with its fort/castle with amazing view to the Egean Sea. easily reachable from Kos, if you are interested in going there.
🤗
This is an incredibly timely series! We are also looking for spots to spend a bit more time, and Corfu is on our list as well. I would be interested in understanding which towns are “live” towns through the off season and which towns close up for the winter. Have an amazing time!
Back in greece awesome guys Corfu is absolutely fantastic Excited to see what's next Can't wait
Nisyros is an amazing island! Kos is a 30 min ferry ride away. We spent the month of May there. Had an amazing air BnB to stay in by the sea and enjoyed watching the ferries coming and going. Most make it a day trip to see/walk on the volcano but we thoroughly enjoyed our stay there.
🤗
So excited for you guys to make the move to Greece and doing some slow traveling through the country! Can't wait to visit Corfu sometime and see all the places you recommend. My wife and I are moving to Chania, Crete in December for a year and can't wait to live full time in Greece!
Oh wow Chania is incredible! You'll love it there and I'm sure you'll do many many road trips on the island - Anna
Loved this place!
Us too! Sleepy little beach towns are the best - Anna
Kalimera from Tanzania Both 😃
I lived on many islands in Greece for over 9 years.
Corfu.
I know your going to take pics of Paleokasritsa. James bond haha
Oh and endless droves of beautiful olive trees. How blessed 😃
Such a great island ❤ 🇬🇷- Anna
sooo great that you like Greece🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷❤️❤️❤️👍🤛💯
Luv this country! - Anna
Hi Anna, Trevor, love your vlogs and like you Greece is my favourite country was bit worried when I looked at one point when you were having a drink thought Trevor was going to get up and hit his head on the pole , but was the angle of it lol, enjoy guys looking forward to the rest of your vlogs x
Haha my head is A-Okay! 😂 Glad you’re enjoying the vlogs - Trevor
Hello from Halifax! 🇨🇦 I just discovered your channel, and I love watching your adventures! I dream of visiting Greece someday... and your videos are making me feel homesick for Greece..even though I haven't been there...if that makes any sense! Haha! Looking forward to following you on your travels and see where you end up! 😍
Hello Halifax 👋 We're glad you found us and you probably know where from there by now. Welcome to the channel 😀 - Trevor
I knew it! ❤ My favorite country!
Might be ours too! - Trevor
Hi Anna and Trevor, I would definitely would like to see more videos of the city and the gastronomic part of Greece. The beaches so far does not impress me as I come from the Dominican republic and beautiful beaches is what we have all over. I wish you guys a great time there and would love to see you back in DR some day again!!!
We will 100% be back in the DR in 2023! We'll have lots on food coming up and eventually (we think) a full on street food video in Athens - Trevor
i just love greece! love the islands close too Turkey too! just soo beautiful! 🇹🇷🇬🇷
🤗
Those islands are greek islands you know. You turks have a lot of greek land already no? It s not enough for you? Now you want greek islands too???, or rather the greek islands are close to the Turkish coastal cities that used to be majority greek until 1922 like Smyrna when kemal attaturk killed all the greeks there.
Another great video. Colombia is my Greece. When you said "it just feels good to be back", that's how I feel when I touch back down in Colombia - where I am now. Also that's where you guys were.when i found your channel.
It's interesting how many young ppl from the US/Canada are looking for other places to live long term over time. My family thinks it's crazy🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️ anyway, thanks for the good content! Keep it comming!
Colombia is amazing! We really want to get back there and explore Myles. Enjoy! - Trevor
Hey Guys,
Looking forward to your Greece adventure.
I hope you get the opportunity to check out the Peloponnese...
Safe travels.....🎉🎉
Thanks for watching! - Anna
Love Your Videos! You both do a great job of showcasing what Greece has to offer. I currently live in the US, but was born in Athens and I can relate to a lot of what you have experienced in your travels there. My family's ancestral island is Lesvos, which is the third biggest island in Greece. It is known for its Ouzo and Olive oil as well as unique natural beauty and history. The Poetess Sappho was born on the island in the 6th century BC in the Village of Erresos, and Aristotle left Athens to study the islands unique flora and fauna in the 4th century BC. I highly recommend you visit there sometime if you get the chance. Looking forward to your future videos.
Never been in Greece. It is definitely on my bucket list. Meanwhile I enjoy it through your videos. You just got a new subscriber!!!!
Woohoo welcome aboard! Lots more on coming up - Anna
Wonderful ...
Been busy, so just watching, but I'm so happy about your move 💯‼️The year COVID hit my daughter and I had a trip planned to Greece and Croatia. So now I can now at least enjoy the views 🤣
Hope you're doing great Diane 🤗 - Anna
I m so excited for Greece!
Ha, I caught you guys still can't forget DR!! ; ). Don't come back for a few years. We are more loved where we are missed. ; )
We will 100% be back in the DR at some point. Can't wait! - Trevor
As a Greek living in Corfu we are happy to welcome you
🤗
Aww, Corfu is wonderful if that's where you choose to stay. Yes, northwest Greece is the rainiest part of Greece in the winter. OTOH, Corfu is a great base to explore Epirus region in the autumn. Hop on a ferry to Igoumenitsa, rent a car, and head to the Zagori villages and Vikos National Park. And further afield, Meteora.
I would strongly recommend the Peloponnese region, which is basically a microcosm of Greece. Historic Nafplio is a mini-Corfu City. And you can explore the region and its wonderful towns: medieval Monemvasia, the Mani peninsula (and its towns and mini-castle towers), the Messenia peninsula, the Arcadia stone towns like Dimitsana...and Peloponnese is relatively warm for winter.
So happy for you, guys! If you ever get back to Athens and you need help, I would love to assist you. I know the city pretty well. Welcome back to Greece!
Good to know and so appreciate that ele 😀- Trevor
ingat guys :-) and have fun xx
🤗
Wow guys! Corfu looks like somewhere we have to explore!! -m&m
The 4 of us need to come here. How fun would that be? 😀 - Trevor
@@DelightfulTravellers that would be AMAZING!!
Hi Guys. Been a while but still watching! Thinking ahead maybe you could head to Cyprus as they have a separate schengen agreement. 90 days there then back to Greece for another 90 days! Milos, Serifos and Sifnos Islands are worth visiting. Parga on the mainland is gorgeous. For now the weather will be warmer in Crete but I guess you know that! Have a good one whatever you do! Spence.
Hey Spencer 👋 So appreciate all the tips here. We know some of these islands but will look up some others - Trevor
I moved to Greece in 2019. The best thing I ever did !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Welcome to corfu !!!
🤗
We love greece as well, we've been to kos, kefalonia, lefkada, halkidiki, zante, skiathos, every island beautiful, we're staying for 8 weeks July 2023 in kefalos as well, never tried corfu yet but wele get there eventually, enjoy the rest of your travels and stay safe 👍
🤗
I love the show from pbs where the British family moved to corfu in the 1930 true story absolutely fell in love with corfu bc of that show. If you know it and see the house from movie definitely film it ..enjoy so excited for you both ..❤️😎🇨🇦
Yes, based on the book by Gerald Durrell about his childhood: My family and other animals.
So far we luv this island and can’t wait to do a road trip in the next vlog! - Anna
So thrilled to subscribe to your channel. We are from Nova Scotia!! Big Europe trip this fall. How can we find the name of the accommodation??
Enjoy, I live here in Corfu, Benitses, from the UK
Greece is beautiful, I have been to Corfu and did visit Roda , fantastic island but there’s so much to Greece, Rhodes is a favourite, and Stoupa in the Peloponnese , I’m sure where ever you decide it will be great. 🇬🇷🌺👍
We've been to Rhodes and have videos on that place. We constantly dream of Lindos 😍 - Anna
@@DelightfulTravellers we stay in the village just south of Lindos , beautiful area.
Hey guys love the fact that you are in Greece. If you want to visit other islands and that are pretty much close to corfu, you should check out Lefkada, kefalonia Or even Zakynthos my favorite..
Corfu was under British rule after the Napoleonic wars and eventually unified with Greece in 1864 :) The brits still love to vacation in Corfu, as you have discovered!! So excited to see you guys back in Greece!! I personally have been vacillating between Athens or the island of Evia (where I have family). Evia has some extensive and major history, it was even mentioned in Homer's The Odyssey but no matter where you end up, I could not be more excited!!! looking forward to more!!
Taki we're so happy to be back here. It almost feels like home at this point 😀 Corfu is so green... we're a little shocked honestly and can't wait to see more of the amazing island here - Trevor
@@DelightfulTravellers can't wait to see it with you!!
My wife and I lived in saranda for about 3 months it's a really great place but the towns on the smaller side and things tend to close down during winter. Things also get harder to find the farther you are from the city center . Prices for food and everything are really good though it definitely is worth a stay for an extended time.
Looking forward to your time in Greece, BUT next September we're hoping to spend some time exploring Albania and a month in one place. Would love to see some videos before we go.
Sounds like a great trip Merrill! - Trevor
I am a Greek stuck in North America because I am not in a profession that would allow me to work that far remote… but that said - Eptanisa are all amazing, my favorite is Zakinthos, but Lefkada is amazing as well - Corfu is stunning in it’s own right, but the other two I mentioned have better beaches. Zakinthos is also the farthest South, so their warm weather season extends a bit further than Corfu. Have fun!
Ah Corfu, the land of everything kumquat! Check out Antranik restaurant in the Old Town. Outdoor terrace, great food (we had calamari, Greek salad and a couple of Mythos beers that were icy cold, and free wifi. You will get a kick out of how the server (it was actually the owner when we went) stops the traffic to cross the road to bring you your food. See if you can spot the gift store also in the Old Town with an acrylic floor filled with seashells. We absolutely loved the Old Town!
Thanks for the tip Helen. We'll look those places up 🤙 - Trevor
Go back to Crete!
So much variety, culture and amazing food!
I also just a hop and a jump to Egypt and Turkey!
It's so tempting to go back to Crete! We'll see 🤔 - Trevor
We visited 9 cyclades in 6 wks and although it's hard to choose....Koufinissia or Schinoussa were favs
Haven’t been for over 20 years unfortunately…living in Italy we would get the ferry there…we liked the beautiful coast line of Paleokastritsa and Liapades area best on the western side of the island as we preferred small bays etc…but as I said our last visit was more than 20 plus years ago…look forward to seeing these places through your eyes..enjoy
We're hoping to make our way down to that area actually. It looks so nice 😀🤙 - Trevor
I used to buy iced cappuccino from Starbucks in CA but they would make it with hot foam. Then at some point they had cold foam iced cappuccino. You can also get fredo at Starbucks here in Spain.
One thing I would also advise as a Greek to foreigners is to visit the places also in winter or spring to get a feel of the life and what’s open/available outside of the heavy summer tourist season. Some places do get too quiet
you have a wonderful channel.
🥰
Great video ... Could you make a video about the difference between Greece and Italy please?? Which one is your favorite ?
That would be a tricky video to film. Thanks for watching - Trevor
Greece looks beautiful and I want to visit one day for sure. We love Italy of course and have been many times. I am of Portuguese/Azorean background and in the last few years have discovered how amazing it is in Portugal and the Azores. Any thoughts if you will ever be going there and see if that would be a place you want to live? Just curious.
Yes Portugal is very high on our travel list to get back to. We've been before and have very old 'cringe videos' on the channel haha. But for living... yes Portugal sounds perfect 👍 - Trevor
Happy to see u both again. This time, when are u going back to the Philippines
Maybe in 2023 😀
Its a good price for that studio 👍👌
