To Greece = Stin Ellada (in Greek στην Ελλάδα)
With this blog, we would like to share our departure process from Belgium to Greece with family, friends, and all those who would like to follow.
When do you really leave? When you close the door behind you? Or much earlier, when the dreams in your head become clearer and sharper. When you can gradually formulate more clearly what you do and do not want. Wild dreams that gradually crystallise into something concrete and achievable. Leaving is a process, not something you do in one moment. Early 2021 we turned a corner. A dream has become a project. The end of 2022 is now our target date. Then we want to move to Greece. And once you fix the date, everything changes. Your routine is broken. Everything becomes dependent on that date. Am I still doing it, or is it not worth it? You start planning, gathering concrete information… We are really going to do it now. But leaving is still a process. Step by step.
