In this juicy episode, we cracked open a bottle of wine from Crete and spilled all the tea on what it was really like scouting Greece as a potential new home. This isn’t a travel recap—it’s our unfiltered, slightly tipsy thoughts on what it would actually be like to live in Greece long-term with a toddler, a business, and dreams of European life.
We talk about:
- Why Greece made our move abroad shortlist (and why so few people consider it!)
- Our very different experiences in Thessaloniki vs. Chania (Crete)
- Greek coffee culture, brunch scenes, and Greek vs Italian food
- The real deal on cost of living, green space, and child-friendliness
- Our honest debate: could we really build a life in Greece? Or is it just a dreamy fling?
From strollers and salted olives to seasonality and suburb life, this is a raw, real conversation about the practical and emotional side of scouting your future home. And yes, the wine does kick in as the episode goes on.
