Thanks guys. Greece IS where my heart is...it's always been there. I almost didn't get my plane back home last week but decided to do the decent thing, quit my job "face to face", and catch up with family/friends before I disappear again. We only have one life--that we remember--and I intend to start living it! :love:

I'm happy because I choose to be...there's a lot in life to be happy about. :smile2:

I returned back from Greece last week, I was there for four weeks. I had planned on moving back to Greece this summer but was talked out of it by the people I work with...but once I arrived "home" I realised I'd made a huge mistake. I'm not happy with life here so I came back and quit my job. A big step, and life changing, but I feel it's the right decision. Long story short, I return to Greece on Wednesday, where my only plan is to take every day as it comes, and enjoy life. :love:
Ah! I went to a sing along showing of Mama Mia last - so made me want to pack up and move to Greece. Enjoy it, girl!

Awww, I love Mama Mia...have you been to Greece? I love sitting at the harbours/beaches, in cafe bars, enjoying iced cold coffee (frappe) and watching the world go by. I will enjoy it, thank you. :smile2:
OH -no I haven't, but that makes it sound so perfect. Eons ago, when I was 12 or so, there was a movie called Summer Lovers - it was cheesy as hell, but set in Greece, it made me want to go there. Someday I will.

Of all the places I've travelled to it's the only one I highly recommend. The lifestyle, culture, scenery, and people are amazing.
I've not seen that movie but I'll try to find it online...I love a bit of cheese! :love:

Shirley Valentine is a movie I love with a Greece setting. It made me really want to go there...so beautiful.
I hope you will be sooooo happy there!
