Brits in Greece / Cyprus   Brits in Greece / Cyprus  
Crete has one of the larger concentrations of Brits and Irish in Greece. Swap your ideas about Living in other areas of Greece such as Rhodes, Corfu and Paros (and even Cyprus) versus the Cretan experience, and of course to ask for advice on property, work, retirement, etc!
