It is not easy learning to live in a different country. I am sharing my experiences and hope someone will find it useful whether living here in Greece or any other country.

Vacation to Crete, Greece
Only a forty five minute flight from Athens to Heraklion airport
in Crete. It is a very big island and renting a car is recommended.
We did our sightseeing by bus and a lot of walking. The days are
hot and always windy. When the sun sets the wind will die down a
little and the evening will be warm.
If staying in a hotel be sure to get one with air conditioning.
Most hotels have air conditioning, but is better to be safe than sorry.
The sea in the area where we stayed is very hard to swim in. The
tide comes in very hard and is hard to stand up. You have to swim out
far to get away from the hard waves. Unless you are a good swimmer
I would not go out far. There was no life guard, so you are on your
own.
The night life is nice, plenty of restaurants and coffee shops.
Lots of ice cream shops and grocery stores if you rented a apartment
with a microwave and cooking supplies.
The city offers plenty of tours if you want to see the city or go
further into the island.
I highly recommend Crete for a vacation if you visit Greece for
a vacation.
