If you are fed up with the grey skies and cold in the UK and want to live somewhere where you can enjoy a nicer climate and spend time outdoors in a beautiful country, then Greece could be the perfect place for you.
Being only a short flight away from the UK it is easy to come back and visit and for family and friends to visit you too.
Here are some of the things to consider before you make the move…
Education – If you have children, something that will be really important is their education. There are lots of great schools in Greece, however if they are older, they may have a struggle with learning the language if they don’t already speak it.
There are schools out there that teach in English though, so do some research and have a look into different schools.
Citizenship – In order to live in Greece permanently you will need to become a Greek citizen. Unless you have Greek heritage, you will need to find another way to do this. Many people go down the citizenship by investment route like this golden visa Greece program georgakilawfirm.com/services/golden-visa-programs
Healthcare – You also need to think about healthcare when you move to Greece. In order to get state healthcare, you need to pay social insurance via work or using a UK based global healthcare card. You can also pay for private healthcare. It is advised that you get private healthcare as soon as possible.
