    My grandmother used to put the sheets in the refrigerator, and at bedtime, she would give them to us. It was so nice that we could sleep comfortably until one or two o'clock in the morning when the temperature started to drop a bit

    A small tip to drink a better frappe, is to use fresh milk and not from a can, it makes a big difference. I wish the whole family a happy holiday!

    Frappe used to be very common 15-20 years ago. Now its almost obsolete, its place has been taken by Freddo Espresso (Iced espresso). Have a nice summer, the heat can be insufferable at times. Greetings from Crete.

    It is very nice in Rhodes at this time of year. I'm curious how you would react to 40 degrees in Athens at such a time. But then again, it's summer and it will be hot. You are not in the Sahara desert, but in Greece, there is no need for so much drama. If someone wants a summer at 25 degrees Celsius, let them take a holiday in Russia for example

      Last winter in Finland (where I'm from) the temperature dropped below -30 in many places. Some people had difficulties starting their cars. I don't think there's a place with constant perfect weather, but Rhodes comes pretty close to that. Now it's nice again here 34...25 🌴🏖️☀️

    I lived in Greece in Zakynthos for 20 years from 1993 till 2013, I noticed the south winds becoming more and more prevalent as the years went by, old Greek women used to tell me it brought disease
    ( αρρώστιας )
    I didnt like it as it was always humid ,I prefer north winds and whenever is was very cold northerly wind it made me homesick for Scotland where I am from, I miss the sunny days in Greece but I dont miss the flies, mosquitoes, and heat and lack of bins to take rubbish or stray abused animals, bars with prostitutes working in small villages causing marital problems, snobbery and closed minds in villages.

  • @Gk-ug6gu
    @Gk-ug6gu 6 месяцев назад +1

    Fun/"sad" fact after climate crisis where the things have changed a lot Greeks tend to like and appreciate winter more. The only complaining about winter is the cost of heating the house. And always has been the main concern. Summers in the past used to be 30-35°C with strong north winds and clear atmosphere. Maybe 7-10 days of 40°C throughout the whole summer where these temperatures were considering as abnormal and extreme. Now days are like 35-39°C with frequent south winds and dust for weeks. And almost a month above or close to 40°C. There is no pleasure in summer anymore. And its costly too.

    would you recommend buying property there?
    Which area in Greece should I look for?
    What things I must check before buying?
    Thank you very much and I appreciate your onion.

      Yes I would recommend buying property for retirement, if you want to retire here. For investment, maybe something like Airbnb? I would look from the mainland. Before you buy property here, you need to hire a local lawyer that will see all legal aspects for you. I hope this helps 😊
