Hi Harmonie, sorry.

OK, I am Sean from Belfast in Northern Ireland. I have moved to Petroupoli, Athens after I met the love of my life on facebook on March the 3rd, 2011. A whirlwind romance with her travelling to meet me twice in Ireland and now I'm here trying to find work to get my own place and secure a future for us. I love the place and the language is a major barrier to overcome! I can read some Greek and understand it but i can't really understand it from the mouth, far to fast!

I hope this site helps me out, so far it's been very helpful. So that's me so far. Nice to meet you. :);)
