Hi,

It really depends to an extent on where you are thinking of moving to in Greece.  Some places will obviously have more jobs available than others. 

Are you fluent in Greek?  Outside the tourism sector you are likely to need this.  Remember too that you will be competing with local people for jobs which may not necessarily endear you to the community if there is not much work available.  Also, very often it is a case of who you know, not what your skills are!

If you do want to work in the tourist industry it is worth bearing in mind that you may have to work extremely long hours every day during the summer season.  If you have children and no child-care, the need to look after them will impact upon your availability for this work.

Could you set up something on your own or perhaps continue the type of work you do now via the internet? 

Sorry if this doesn't sound very encouraging but I hope it helps.

Good luck.

Julia
