Six months later, I will spend a month in Greece.

I am going to Paris next January. Six months later, I will spend a month in Greece.

I am going to Paris next January, and in six months, I will spend a month in Greece.

What I would like to know is if "later" can be used with future tense like this or using "in" is just better with future tense? What do you native English speakers think? Thank you a million and peace.Emotion: rock
