The Kefalonian Explorers


I'm Sharon

























I'm a former Senior Scientist at Leica Biosystems in Newcastle Upon Tyne in the UK, and previous to that a Biomedical Scientist at Freeman Hospital and the Royal Victoria Infirmary. I've spent most of my working life looking down a microscope. It's time to see the bigger picture!
I'm now retired (early I have to say - I'm not that old!)
Ever since reading "My Family and Other Animals" by Gerald Durrell for "O" Level English Literature at secondary school, I have loved the idea of living on a Greek island.


The 1977 Front cover

It's been a dream for most of my life but now it's reality.
It's time to live life.
It's time to live on Kefalonia.

........Let the adventure begin.


I'm Mark




















I was born in Hong Kong, but have spent most of my life in the UK.
I'm a former satellite installer.
I'm now retired (even earlier as I'm younger than Sharon)
I've never read "My Family and Other Animals", but I love Greek food!
Kefalonia here we come!


.......Let the adventure begin.
