We spent a month in Crete to see if that is where we would want to spend a few years living overseas after recently retiring. We found an Airbnb in the hills overlooking the ever changing White Mountains.

Monastery of Saint John the Hermit

Ascetic center which flourished during the Byzantine Empire 11-12th century.

Chania and Rethymno

We loved the farmers markets, the fresh veggies and olives were out of this world. We probably shouldn’t have bought the large bag of potatoes before walking around the street markets.
