Retiring in Crete early next year. Bought a house near Kalyves. Looked all over from east to west but decided on the Kalyves area. The property we were looking for finally presented itself. Your videos are interesting and have a good amount of humor. We really have enjoyed them so far. I hope you have a lot of success with them. Watching from Southern California.

@@Sunpire , well was seriously considering Calabria, Italy and actually had an offer on a property near Tropea. However, it became extremely frustrating and had to end up backing out. Then started looking into Greece, made a few trips there and really loved the people, culture, food and especially the weather (sunny, dry and overall good weather and not overrun with bugs). I guess the weather is a lot like Southern California. Also, the golden visa was a good option for permanent residency. So started looking some of the different islands and the Peloponnese. Settled on Crete as I thought it was the best option with multiple airports, self-sufficient island, good medical options, great beaches, food and I'm retired from the Navy so liked the fact there is a Navy Base in Souda Bay. I like to swim, so love the calm water. Also, I like the history of Minoan civilization. After finding the house and getting it under contract, the buying process was very easy and completed in 3 months. The hardest part was getting time off to go back and forth deciding where to live and finding a right property.

Hi, great choice on location, lived in Kalyves for over 13 years. Have just moved out a bit further near Vamos, not the same amount of facilities, but a lot quieter life. Still go to Kalyves a few times a week for supplies and to sit in platiea to watch the traffic chaos in tourist seaon 😁

Must learn the language number one priority so you can interact with people, I have a Greek friend from work an aeronautical engineer with a wife from England living in Greece I don't know 30 years and she hardly speaks, or trying to speak Greek she even answers the phone in English I have no respect of that if you consider that all Greeks sent our kids to learn a second or even a third language to our kids. You are going to get buy with English because people are friendly but for how long?

This is one factor that I would have had real problems with had I been able to move to Greece decades ago. A lot of us do have problems with foreign languages because of their grammatical complexity compared with English. I failed to learn French, Spanish, and Latin despite trying my hardest with Spanish.

@@carlgrove8793 You have to start with the basics at the bakery for instance, kalimera ( good morning), thelo ( I whant) mia ( one ) franjola ( loaf ) psomi ( bread) . At the Cafe for axample kalimera thelo ena ( one) fretto capuchino, and so on you build up with each new word you learned your vocabulary and interaction with locals by a little more at a time.

Well, if you really want to learn a language you have to attend actuall classes, with a certified teacher who can teach you grammar and vocabulary. Brits tend to relly solely on learning useful phrases and then trying to build upon that, which is next to impossible.

@@Sunpire I guess taxes are relative to where you come from. For property taxes in California, I was paying $8000 USD per year for a property I bought for $420,000. In Greece, my property tax was 250 Euros for the year and my property was not exactly an inexpensive property. I think my income tax was 200 Euros as I'm currently renting the property. However, for my retirement income, I'm able to claim it in US and pay US tax rate on it verses claiming it in Greece. I have a tax guy in Greece that handles my Greek property and income taxes and deal with it as it is kind of complicated.
