Thank you so much dear @bluemoon for your wishes!
Now I can say this without fear of it being inappropriate... I've always wondered why you chose to live in such an austere place
Laughed so much reading this!!! And it is partly true :) The human soul is an abyss they say, hahaha! Truth is that it was beautifully there too as well as where we moved to. When we were in Crete and they asked me where I am from, they were surprised that I left Nafplio for Crete. These days that we are in Nafplio everyone asks why I left Crete to come to Nafplio :) What to say, I guess we are lucky that we can move from one beautiful place to another beautiful place. Hopefully things will be a bit easier here :)
I knew it was only partially true.
Yes, you are lucky to be able to relocate, to make such a big change in your life. I am a person who gets attached to people, places, and things. I'm glad you're not like that because it's so much better and easier. I wish you all the best for this change.
In Stefanos's post, there is a photo that I really like... you are with your back to the camera, looking at the sea and Markos is looking at the camera. It looks like you are looking towards the future life and Markos, looking regretfully after the island life. Is that so?
Mixed feelings is the best way to describe how it feels. Nostalgic for leaving back such a beautiful (but difficult) place and really happy to be here now. And stressed and excited, all together, a mix, changes like this are never easy. But really proud of ourselves for doing it! We are keeping the olive groves there though so we'll be there for a few months at least twice every year. Maybe as a transition to make it easier or maybe for longer, who knows :)
Markos is more excited than all of us! There are so many dogs and smells :))
And you know that there is no need for a boat to come here, right? Ok, it's a long drive, but still way easier :)
I understand your feelings well, it's normal to be so.
For me it remains a surprise, nothing lets see your desire for change, or maybe I didn't see it, reading maybe superficially and not all of your posts. I'm so glad you chose this option, and even better now, that you'll sit in both places.
Oh, how nice! That looks like an invitation, thank you!
Now I can show you how unlucky I can be. The other day I had my heart checked and I'm in big trouble. The doctor forbade me to drive a car... I have to go to another specialist doctor who did an operation on my heart a year ago, maybe he will put in a pacemaker, maybe another operation similar to the one last year (I wouldn't want to, because it was very painful and, I think, ineffective...). I'll see, but for now, my travels seem blocked.
Did you go to the doctor @bluemoon? I really really hope that everything will is fine!!!
Yes, I'll go. I'm getting the necessary tests. Thank you so much for the hope you give me!
Sending you our best wishes and thoughts!
Thank you very much, I feel that!
Haha, I wouldn't worry about Marcos, he is the most adaptive from the 3 of us :)
You are right and more than that, he is happy to be with you no matter where.
