Thinking about living in Greece or starting a new life abroad? 🇬🇷 In this video, we meet Michael, who left the UK behind to build a completely new life in a beautiful village in the Peloponnese, Greece. From renovating old stone houses to creating an inspiring artist residency, this is a story about taking risks, embracing a new culture, and giving back to the local community. We spent our final day house sitting here, enjoying stunning sea views, caring for two lovely cats, and learning what it’s really like to live in rural Greece. 🌿 What you’ll see in this video: Why Michael moved from the UK to Greece The challenges of expat life in Greece (language, culture & lifestyle) A day in the life in a Greek village A full tour of a beautifully renovated traditional home Inside a unique artist residency project The reality of living in the Peloponnese 🏡 About the location We filmed this in the southwest Peloponnese, one of the most authentic and unspoiled regions of Greece — far from the typical tourist crowds.
