i had the best time reading this as someone who lives in Athens. It’s so interesting, being able to see Greece from a foreigners POV. I showed it to my family and we all agreed with every single thing you said!! Thank you so much for sharing!!
Thanks Beth! That is a very high compliment! I would say my writing about something like this is "Ignorant but Honest." Ignorant because I was there for a very short time with no local guide so I don't really know anything but honest because I approached my observation from a place of love. And observing with love was partcularly easy because I really loved Athens! My daydreams of moving there were very real.
I just got back from Greece, was in Athens for part of it! Hope you are well old friend :)
