Buying a house in Greece

 

This is a photo from Lefteris Parisis' kitchen on Hydra, from 1997 and we have just signed the agreement for our house. Lefteris and his wife had their own house opposite our new house, just further up the alley. The house we bought had been in Lefteris' wife's family for many years.

Lefteris to the right and in the middle is Yannis Gavalas who was the agent. We were all very happy, Lefteris went to Four Corners supermarket to buy some beer and softdrinks and then later Gavalas and I walked down to the port to transfer the money and to pay Gavalas his commission.
