Georgios,

Wish you the best in your new location. Look on it as an adventure. New
territory to explore. New challenges.

I can remember when I moved to Alaska. Everyone thought I had lost my
mind. I was living in Marathon in the Florida Keys at the time. Why
would anyone want to go and live in that God-forsaken wilderness and the
cold with Eskimoes and Indians, I was often asked.
Well, I had a few trepidations, but when I got there, I knew I had found
home - and I loved the Eskimos and Indians - very fine people.  I stayed
30 years. Never left the state but about 5 times in that whole period.

Go for it. You may find "Home!"

Regards,

John Rodgers
