last time and delightful travelers we were exploring the Undiscovered Puglia region
in Italy we so enjoyed the country but it was time to move on in this video we made our way
back to one of our favorite countries Greece we're visiting the island of Corfu to see if
this is somewhere we could possibly live for a while I'm Anna and this is Trevor welcome
to the start of a brand new series where we will be starting our new life in Greece make
sure to hit subscribe and click the like button so you don't miss a single video a huge thanks
to our channel members and patrons for making these videos Possible Oh and welcome to Greece
foreign
well it's time for us to take our own advice and slow down a little bit we've been really busy
with travel as of late and one of our new goals on the channel is slow travel and we're looking
for places to live and that's why we're here now we are in Greece oh so excited we're back in green
grease video we left you on a little bit of a cliffhanger Albania or Greece obviously you
know the answer to that now we pick treats we did now you might be able to see Albania way in the
background there it is so beautiful those Balkan Mountains are just out of this world so at least
we kind of get the best of both worlds we can see Albania but we're right here in Corfu in Greece
so Albania is definitely not out of the picture we will still get there at some point it's definitely
on the list but in a way that I don't think I can entirely explain as we made our way through Italy
both of us found ourselves just yearning to get to Greece it's one of our favorite countries in
the world this is our third time here and a lot of you guys will know when we get that dreaded
question of what is your favorite country Greece is usually what comes to both of our minds so this
might be our third time to Greece but it is our first time to the island of Corfu and we are so
excited we're hanging out a little Beach town right now called Roda in the north yeah it's
right at the top of Corfu we were in Italy and we realize that you can take berries to get to Greece
Corfu happens to be at the very very top of Greece and he just made so much sense so our plan is to
scope out this entire island of Corfu and see if we want to live here basically stay here for
our full amount of days that we can be inside of the EU that would be like 90 days now if we don't
happen to like tofu I'm sure we're gonna like it we do have some other Islands in mind I hope you
guys are so excited we're thrilled to be back in Greece it's one of our favorite countries on
the planet if you're excited hit the like button because it really helps us out to be honest so why
do we love free so much part of it is honestly just hard to explain the moment we arrived back
here was just this really great feeling it's really comfortable feeling but they do have
a whole lot of islands here I think there's like something like 240 inhabited Islands so you could
spend years just exploring the different islands and they all kind of have a different vibe and
different look to them also the food there is so much incredible food here a lot of different
types of dishes in each island also has different types of food as well and beaches many many many
many beaches in this country each island has its own beaches some of them are rocky some of them
are Sandy some of them are clear some of them are wavy like this one and one more thing don't
forget history yeah obviously this is like the basis of Western history like everything started
here so it really offers pretty much everything I do have to say that the beach here in this little
town is absolutely beautiful it's small but it's a mighty fine Beach you can see all these loungers
here as well there's not a lot of people in them at the moment now I do know that this is not the
best beach in Corpus this just happens to be the town we're staying in we'll show you where we're
staying a little later in the video as well don't worry though we'll be exploring Corfu a little bit
more and finding more magical beaches but I do like this one given it's only like a five minute
walk farmer place where we're standing if you're wondering how much all these Beach beds cost we're
actually here in the shoulders season and believe it or not they are free seems like each restaurant
has their own set and usually if you just buy something even like a beer I think you're good
to go yeah check this I just noticed this there's no seaweed right in this section yeah so like the
main part where all all the beach or the loungers are it's like totally clear I don't know if they
clean it like clean up the seaweed and dough in the other area or if it just happens to stay clean
over here because it's not really in the water here either the other thing we noticed about this
little town is it's mostly Brits that come here we haven't heard a single North American accent
honestly up in this whole North Coast of Corfu yet so we're just curious is it like British Snowbird
country like like our Florida and like we're from Canada so is it like our Florida I think
it is also a few years ago we were in turkey in a town called FeFe and it reminds us a lot of that
it was also all British people there as well yeah but because the Brits are here means there's good
old English breakfast so if you were looking forward to us eating a full English breakfast
that's not happening today we are in Greece not in the UK we are in hunt for something that we
haven't had in quite a few years and we always love here in Greece well we found a great little
spot here on the beach we got a great View and we got one of these this is what we've been missing
you guys it is Alfredo cappuccino so what's in alfredo cappuccino you might ask there is coffee
there's some whipped milk and of course ice and you can see that the kind of whipped milk is on
the top it is honestly our favorite coffee in the world and we usually can only find them right here
in Greece the kind of from Greece we I think maybe we did find them once in another country maybe in
Turkey but typically you can find them anywhere in Greece and we're so happy that we found one
today so a lot of the time when you order one the espresso kind of sits on the bottom you have to
like stir it very very rigorously to get the milk and the espresso to mix together this one seems
to be like pouring in kind of in a pretty fashion into the espresso I'm not quite sure why if they
made it a little bit differently it means the mixing part was a little bit easier to do they're
so good so refreshing on hot day I don't know why you can't get these in other parts of the world I
think the big trick to it is actually frothing the milk which I guess they don't do with like an iced
latte or anything like that but it's so good and I just love all the fluffy milk on the top well
let's see what it tastes like here honestly these things just make us want to stay in Greece forever
let alone just the 90 days they're so good we don't get them with sugar and they're just they're
so good we also just want to point out how amazing it is to be sitting right here in a little Beach
town again on a beach having well this Fredo cappuccino wasn't that long ago that we were
kind of living in a Beach town in the Dominican Republic yeah a lot of you guys will remember we
spent all of winter of 2022 in cabarete in the Dominican Republic fell in love with it it's
also one of our favorite places on the planet that we will continue to return to something
really interesting about cabarete is that all the restaurants are in all the restaurants but a lot
of restaurants are right on the beach so your feet are literally in the sand yeah this isn't
quite like that we're on the beach but we're on like a platform like a deck yeah it's not quite
the same most of the places seem to have kind of decks that go over the beach so I always go back
to Lake cabarete is one of the only places where you can actually eat with your feet in the Sands
like at tables like the restaurants have tables in the sand most of the things that are in the sand
here are Beach loungers of course Everyone likes to kind of bask in the sun while they're here in
Corfu but I don't know first impressions here we're getting uh Good Vibes again we're just in
the town today we're not out exploring but it's a lot of fun there's enough to do here in this
town for us that's for sure well that was good but you can probably tell it's pretty quiet here huh
yeah I think most people are maybe on the beach right now yeah so you can see there's souvenir
shops here it's a place to do tours we've got kind of little cafes like that kind of access
to the beach so there's enough here yeah there's quite a few restaurants a good mix of like pubs
plus of course Greek food there's a few other things like there's a Mexican restaurant and an
Indian restaurant believe it or not here as well it's also a bit of shopping but it's mainly like
touristy souvenir places there aren't any like really like cute boutiques or anything like that
the other thing that you might notice around this part of Greece anyway Corfu there's not a lot of
white and blue buildings I know a lot of you just kind of assume that well Greece has a lot
of those typical white and blue structures really that's only in what the Cyclades we
have it's basically in this the Pilates here I don't know what like the actual like traditional
colored buildings would look like probably more Stone but this town is I think a little bit more
modern we did just stumble across this church and it says it's from 1817 which I guess in
Greek terms that's not very old but if we were in North America that would be considered pretty old
it does look old when you look at this I mean it looks like an old structure when you compare it to
what's behind you I mean they're just typical kind of yeah that's kind of a regular looking
apartment buildings newer buildings for sure but this is really cool we just popped into a
little Supermarket we need to stock up on wine great wine yeah it's something I love about in
Greece and basically pretty much everywhere in Europe is that wine is really really inexpensive
this one here is for 90. wow we would never find that price in Canada never like ever
how much is this stuff this is usually like the homemade stuff yeah this is like the homemade
local stuff it's 480 for a liter and a half success with the wine but we found a little
uh Greek cat already and there's always so many in Greece I have no idea why it's more friendly
not running away that's a good sign oh it's a friendly guy she has a collar on maybe she just
wants your wine huh you want your wine well we think it's time to show you guys where we're
staying in this cute little town we rented a little tiny studio apartment very very well
priced products I can give you a tour it's about like a five minute walk from the beach
it's awesome yeah look at this so you can see as we kind of go here there's all these flowers
so it's a cute little walkway I'm not sure how many units are in the entire place but yeah you
can see there's like a top floor bottom floor as well and the other thing we want to show you is
uh yeah check this out I don't know if they'll come through on the cameras here but there are
what would you are these lemons are they oranges I don't know if they're either they kind of look
like well I don't know honestly maybe someone can tell us they're still green but that doesn't mean
they're gonna stay green that's right my initial inclination was limes but I don't think so welcome
inside our apartment so the first little room that you walk into is a little kitchenette area
there's not anywhere to really cook or anything there is a microwave there's a fridge there is a
sink and like all your dishes and that kind of thing it's all the basics and then we have and
here's the bathroom it's just a small room shower though not much to show you there
here is the living bedroom area it is studio so we've got king-sized I think it's a king-sized bed
yeah big closet behind there there's like a little station here which was a coffee station where we
moved that and then we made uh the editing Suite over here yeah I mean it's been a little tricky
to to work off of but we're we're making it happen all right so probably the best part is our little
patio area we have a little table I could probably work out here as well we both could and then
behind Anna there's like a nice backyard but it's something we're not really going to use it's kind
of set up for some kids there is some loungers and there's one big kind of table area we might
use it but we'll see so you're probably wondering what this place cost it's about 60 euro per night
but we are in the shoulder season remember that and just a five minute walk from the beach that
you saw already so that's not too bad honestly I think it's a pretty good deal could you find
better probably but for us it's doing the trick now I know some of you are also probably wondering
did we go to Corfu town the old town before we got here and we did and what a beautiful city that is
there's so many windy streets old buildings cute cafes many many people and we highly
recommend stopping in there if you're coming to Corfu there's so much to do there's so much to
see there and we absolutely loved our time there but now we're gonna take a little break and we'll
pick you guys up we'll end the next team just going to be a few hours for us but for you guys
just a few seconds oh what have you found there's horses here in Rhoda who knew I think you must be
able to go on trail rides or something like that but yeah there's a whole bunch of horses here do
you think they'll uh I think they'll come over let me go with no how do you call a horse I don't know
yo horsey no not happening he's eating hay yeah hey so this little spot is kind of an interesting
place you got multiple horses hanging out here and then you got like a little I guess it's like
a camper yeah there's like an old trailer over there I'm not sure if that's where they hang out
when they're waiting for uh yeah some maybe some clients to come in or go out on rides
or they got the best view
it's a fun town to walk around here you can see like a little I guess this is like a river going
into the ocean there is you can also get around by ATV or quad bike which is so much fun for us
so you guys might remember we did in Las taranas and Dominican Republic which we love you could
actually use it as like a form of transportation and not just to do like an Excursion so that's I
think people do that here as well I have a feeling we'll be renting some of those quad bikes coming
up in this uh Greece series it won't be in the next video though because we got a unique ride
already yeah you guys will see it's a fun little car let's just leave it at that you'll see in the
next video but we're getting closer to the main part of town we're gonna go have a little happy
hour drink and uh yeah chill out of it enjoy the weather we have come back down to the beach to
enjoy happy hour time it's beautiful down here although you might notice the wind from that we
were mentioning from yesterday has definitely come back quite Breezy down here you might be thinking
oh they got their traditional aperol Spritz but it might look like it but this is definitely not an
eyebrow Spritz instead of an aperol we wanted to try something a little bit more Greek this
I'm not sure the name of it I think it might be Rosa but it's probably something they just
came up with here but it's got some green or a corfuia it's got some uh some Spirits from here
one being mastika which we've heard of before and I think we've tried it in maybe a type of
candy like a chewy candy but it also comes in a liqueur kind of a I almost want to say minty but
it's not quite minty flavored and then the other one is kumquat which is actually from here they're
little citrus fruits and they turn it into a very orange looking liqueur which looks a lot
like eyebrow but does not taste at all like it and then there's also grapefruit juice in here wow so
they they say it's kind of like spritz's attitude yeah it's basically a spritz but with some Greek
uh Spirits rather than aperol all right I'm gonna try this one out first
I love the color of this whoa oh geez that just like comes right at you with flavor I actually
don't find it's that bitter at all they did kind of warn us it's it's pretty bitter and we did get
to try the liquor on its own yesterday I will say that was slightly bitter but this is like
kind of like a fruity after all Spritz I can really taste the grapefruit I like that soda
Waters in here makes it bubbly as well this is really good can I just say I'm so happy
to be back in Greece three years we waited to do this and for all you long time viewers and
subscribers you guys know we used to come here quite often boy does it feel good to be back it
just feels good to be back here well cheers to uh Greece I know it says aperol Spritz on this
but it's not we're not I promise you we're not lying you guys so we thought this would be a
good time to just say like welcome to everyone that's new a lot of you from our Italy series
um have tuned in on the whole adventure and I think you're following us over to Greece which
is awesome and of course there's going to be some new people picking us up right here here
while we're kind of moving to Greece and trying to figure out where we want to live remember the goal
of the channel one of the goals of the channel is to try to figure out where we want to be like
kind of long term as the years go on so we're on like a scouting mission right here in Greece yes
but a lot of times when we do videos like this where we talk about moving somewhere and like
traveling full-time we always have new people that come up and say well how do you do this you must
be you must be very very rich we've done lots of videos in the past about how we afford to travel
but we'll give you a little bit of this right well we'll just tell you we'll just tell you right now
we're filthy stinking Rich right if only no that's not the case at all we used to have full-time jobs
we owned homes we've downsized we've told the story before so apologies to you guys to know
it but we just have to tell it again yeah well yeah and our goal was always we just had this
dream we dreamed pretty big and we wanted to um you know be on the road and live full-time and not
be kind of tied to a nine to five job and living inside the norm shall we call it yeah but it was
a gradual process it took quite a few years and a lot of work basically we have a web design company
that that is now independent just the two of us we can work obviously from anywhere as long as we
have Internet we also have our YouTube channel here we have a condo in Halifax as well it's a
tiny house and we rent those two out while we're traveling yeah so it's it is a combo of things
um we work really hard I know these videos we don't film while we're working behind the desk
that would be boring for all of you wouldn't it but that's what we do to be able to kind of travel
and make these videos and we get all this feedback from you guys and you let us know where you want
to see us go and I hope you're excited and we're so grateful for this community we have here it's
truly incredible all you guys are so awesome we get so many messages all the time and I we love
that and all the comments you leave so I think you're going to be excited that we're here I know
I'm so excited to be back in this part so excited we often get people asking us when are you going
back to Greece so I hope all you guys are just as excited as we are and are tuning in and gonna
watch the whole series yeah we probably have a whole bunch of videos in different kind of videos
so not just going to be your typical exploring videos we're looking to maybe move here for par
a part of each year going forward so that's the plan so we're on a scouting Mission if you guys
know where we should go let us know if there's some Island in Greece we like the islands that
we don't know about please let us know we've been to quite a few of them but we're looking we're
looking for more I'm not gonna lie yeah well that sun is going down and the beach is still just as
beautiful but we got some big decisions to make coming up in the next video huh we do we painted
at it we talked about it throughout the video in the next video we're definitely going to be
exploring more different towns beaches and then we have to decide like do we want to stay here longer
do we go to another brand new island or maybe we revisit somewhere that we know and love it's
gonna be a tough decision because we know this island is absolutely beautiful and we don't have
a lot of time to decide so if we we really like a place we're just gonna go okay that's it we're
gonna get a place for a month and stay right here yeah either way we're staying in Greece for quite
a while yeah exactly so big decisions coming up in the next video with a bit of exploring
