My wife and I moved to Rhodes in August 2005. I've since written four books of my Greek experiences, starting from when I first met my wife, whose mother came from Athens, running down to our having lived on Rhodes for a number of years. I've also recently published my first novel, "The View From Kleoboulos", which has a Facebook page here: http://www.facebook.com/TheViewFromKleoboulos. I was a graphic designer for most of my working life in the UK, but always wanted to write, which I now do virtually every day. The blog has been hailed for how informative it is about all things Rhodean and there are hundreds of links all over its pages to helpful Greek and Rhodean sites for the potential visitor. In fact it gets a mention in the 2012 Marco Polo Guide to Rhodes.
