Good Advice
Some up to the minute advice about living on a Greek island. I will feature buying and selling a house on Crete from my own experience. Some advice about the taxation system.
If anyone has several questions about Crete or living on Crete, they can email me and I will answer as soon as I can. I am working on a Q&A page for living on Crete and hope to have it uploaded by the end of the year.
Great galleries
Photography has become very important to me. Websites now need to feature lots of images and videos which need to be continually updated, renewed, whatever.
Most of my photography is featured on websites or content managed sites but I am about to launch a new way of photographing food to get away from the " pretty " look which I find most boring.
I will also spend some time taking new landscapes and coastal views. There are still beaches and coastal towns I haven't seen after eleven years of living here.
Passion.
My passion is music, but sadly I've shut down my hosted radio station due to being unable to keep the station interesting.
News
This Crete will feature english text Greek newspapers. Greece has a very interesting past and present and I read every bit of news that I can get my hands on. If I have something interesting to say, I will publish another page on my blog. My blog may feature some of my thoughts but it will never be about me, something many bloggers ought to practice.
Why I'm shrinking ...
MY ONLINE PRESENCE HAS RECENTLY JUST BEEN REPRESENTED BY FIVE WEBSITES. I HAVE NOW REDUCED THIS TO TWO SITES.
The only other site apart from this one is https://tjbphoto.co.uk which is a commercial site selling my portfolio. I've also reduced email accounts and now only favour terry@tjbphoto.co.uk or terry@terrybridge.com.
My reasons for this belong to the ever worsening effect to the web of so called SEO entrepreneurs that bombard the sites with stupid mails through a medium that is designed to help people.
Of course this doesn't include my work websites. I've lost three recently due to companies moving on or failing, but I still have a nice portfolio.
Why I do it ...
PEOPLE MAY ASK WHY I DO IT. I ENJOY IT. I ALSO THINK THAT SOME OF THE ADVICE I HAVE READ ABOUT LIVING ON CRETE IS FLAWED.
I have been involved in so many things during our eleven year wonderful time on Crete. Buying and selling houses, renting holiday homes and integrating with the fabulous Greek people on the island. I think this gives me a great insight into living on the island.
I have had an online music station for several years and it has been hosted on many platforms. My tastes in music have altered very slightly and I now have a bent for louder and faster music. Perhaps it's my age. I started with the blues, inherited from my mother, then went through tamla motown to progressive rock, to classic rock and now heavy rock/metal. I still listen to all these genres and may play any or all on the music station which is now included on my personal website at http://terrybridge.com/home/music/audio

Samaria Gorge. Trekking the gorge is just one of hundreds of things to do on Crete. Best to try out a shorter gorge first, like the Imbros which is about half the length.
Apokoronas365 is alive and well and living here. Check out the tee shirt on Dave Grohl ! We have just fabulous continuous rock music. Whichever genre you like, heavy metal, hard rock, classic rock, modern, soft or even folk rock. It's all here.
I tend to blog about any subject that either excites or maddens me.
Lakki church in the evening light. A beautiful view across the mountain village with the White Mountains in the background. Crete is a landscape photographers dream.
Ask me any question about Crete.
Due to the perpetual self advertising on this form I have deleted it. The people who use these forms for self advertising and sending viruses are pathetic small people.
