Feaki taxis and the island of Corfu - Part 14
And to see the treasures of this land, come in the morning in the city market. This is not Kiev. Corfu mandarins from Morocco, Egypt, lemons, kiwis, bananas from Ecuador to see Cuba. These and many other fruits and vegetables are here on a small island, where land is available, not grown, but only a red shale and white limestone. Price? Fruits and vegetables are 20-30% more expensive than ours, meat, poultry and eggs, up to 50 or even 70% higher than in Kiev. And pay for it? The monthly unemployment benefit of 420 €, the wages of unskilled workers - 600-700 euros, content or cleaning posudomoyschitsy Tavern - 700-800, the waitress at the hotel - 800-900, an elementary school teacher - Euro 1400 ... I see the Greeks, we can conclude that live slow, sloppy and nesobranny by the principle are: slow and steady wins - the race. But she is not slowing down to laziness, but to a particular approach to the philosophical life.
