This was such an enjoyable read and it was great to get an insight into what you let yourself in for when you move to a new country! The beautiful landscapes of Greece are depicted so well and both perspectives of John and Chris are equally as funny, I extremely enjoyed reading this book! #greece #travelbook #johnhumphreys

5 ⭐. I was laughing out loud with this book, and the above quote resonates with me as my Dad has the sense of direction and my Mum has the ear for music. If anyone is wondering, I take after my Mum in this instance!
