Hello, I am French, currently living in London but thinking about moving to Athens.... would love to discuss with other expat in Athens about their experience, how easy it is to meet friends, etc...
I joined expat.com on 03 October 2009.
Well... I haven't taken yet the decision.... but considering a new change in my life... and Athens could be y new direction! Would love to hear about other expact experience in Athens...
I came to Greece on holidays almost every summer over the last 4 years.... usually to spend a week in one of the beautiful Islands... and then few days in Athens.... I love the food, the lifestyle, people, the culture, the history of the country... the weather... the fact that beaches are easily accessible.... If i can combine my preofessional situation ( job) ... and live in Athens... that could be the perfect destination for a new life... :)
Work and live here for the last 4 years... I have met lots of friends ...
London is really cosmopolitan... I have met friends from lots of different countries... there is lots to do from a cultural point of view, theater, museum, exhibition,
It is an expensive city.... and of course.. the weather is sometimes "depressing"! Too much rain!
Worked and lived there for 5 - 6 years
Very safe and quiet environment... i guess perfect for people who like country side, and quiet life... I would say good for family. Central Location.... you can easily go to France, Germany, Belgium etc...
If I compare to my current life in London... there was not much to do in Luxembourg....easy to get bored specifically if you come from a big city!
Born in France and I grew up and studied there until I moved to Luxembourg for my first job
Well... it is my home country so.... I guess i like everthing.... the culture, the food, the wine, the lifestyle , etc... :)
I am sure there is something i don't like about France.... but can't remember what... ;)
