As a repeat traveler I must say when I first arrived in Greece it was love at first sight. I’ve been in plenty of other places in southern Europe but not a single one has clicked like Greece did. I think it’s the people. Even outside of the tourist industry most people you’ll meet are kind, open, friendly and respectful. I also love the (things take their time) aspect of Greek culture. One day I was sitting at bar and the bartender girl asked me what’s the thing that differentiated Greece from my homeland the most. I said, “everything is so slow here”, and she answered “it’s good! Slow is good” 😄

I hope so too.. I hate it when people call my wife of 25 years ξένη.. even though she loves Greece more than the native Greeks..
