I believe in the existence of our soul, but I can't prove it to you. Anyway, as Jenny pointed out earlier, the bible has much to say about us being in our bodies during the afterlife. It also refers to a "new earth" which he had prepared for us. When we die the soul survives and the body dies. On the final day, our bodies will be resurrected and will be reunited with our souls. Obviously, we will be living in a physical place after that time. I believe that the soul that survives earthly death is the essence of who we are and will retain all our memories and so on, and that we will recognize the people that we have known on earth.
