Sounds divine but if I went to Greece for 8 weeks I’m not sure I would want to return home. Coincidentally I am off to Lefkada tomorrow, a small beautiful island off mainland Greece, connected to the mainland by a floating bridge, so no ferry to deal with. I have an Airbnb up in the mountains with no neighbours and a 10 minute walk to a village with two tavernas. That’s my type of holiday now, an escape from the shitshow that is the UK, however briefly.
I'm in Greece myself at the moment, stunning Paxos first, now touring Corfu. It's impossible not to be chilled here, Iso well done for getting this article out Jeff. We need to support one another, as the Greeks do, in holding on to our public square. Life is meaningless without it.
Kassiopi was our last stop (3 days), beautiful port and the beach about a mile outside town was lovely. One too many tavernas, now back to the wee country Global warming forgot about, I could cry.

You're right Jan. Not looking forward to the return. Have a splendid time in what sounds like paradise.
Wonderful writing, Jeff.

We're not long back from spending 3 weeks in Corfu - our tenth year in a row. Make sure you pay a visit to Kassiopi. Enjoy!
Was there 2 years ago (and many times before) 😉
It's lovely, and a great landing point to visit the islands just South. Kefalonia next time hopefully. Enjoy the rest of your time Jeff.
