Living In Corfu as a Foreigner

Welcome To the Corfiot & All Things Greek!
Welcome to our revamped and re-launched website! This will now be the third major change to our site which has been in urgent need of updating for some while now. It seemed logical that the changes to our site should reflect the changes in web technology and hence Drupal seems a good way to go..

The re-launch of this site has coincided with the need for us to change our webserver's location in an attempt to obtain a more comprehensive service at a more competetive price.

What is this site all about?
Put simply, it's about our experiences of living as a foreigner on the Greek island of Corfu where we have been resident since April 2002.

When we first contemplated moving to Corfu, we found it difficult obtaining answers to the mountain of questions that we had. As a result, we have documented our experiences in the hope that others may find it of assistance. We have witnessed the folly of others who fail to plan their relocation properly. Make sure that you aren't one of them!

Over the years, we have received countless requests for information on a variety of issues. We have tried to answer them personally but as you can imagine, this can be very time consuming. (We have lives too!) In an attempt to reduce the number of queries, we will be including the most common questions asked and our responses.

Despite six years of planning, it has not always been easy but it has always been ...er ... interesting as we hope you will realise as you make your way through the several stories that we have to tell.

As well as helping those that are contemplating relocating to Corfu, we hope that through this site we may be able to show the charms of this beautiful island and her people. Please feel free to contact us particularly if there are questions that remain unanswered about living in Corfu.

Whether you are a regular visitor to Corfu or are considering a visit, hopefully you will find our site of interest.

Please check out our FAQ pages before contacting us! 

Having searched the web ourselves, we find that most travel-based sites want to sell you flights or holidays. This site is different. We have nothing to do with any "Tourist Board". We have nothing to sell.

Our views are based upon our personal experiences. Our views are just that - our views! We would be pleased to hear yours ..... whether or not you agree with us. Feel free to contact us
