Athens is a beautiful city! And it’s not just because for me it’s home... It’s also because of the incredible blue sky, the amazing sun,the hospitality of the people...
Greece has an amazingly rich history, a culture that you can’t compare and beauties that you’ve never seen...
Greeks are loud and proud, just like me! Enjoy this piece of Athens! I just came for a few days to run some errands and made a few cool pics -More to come soon!
I could start this conversation now but I am going to keep it for a next post about what is home, how much do we miss it,why and what it means for us...
For now enjoy the photo tour and as I always say, don’t forget to smile!!!
Hugs from Greece🇬🇷

I cannot wait to visit Greece one day!!! If the Greeks there are anything like you, I'm sure I'll love it just fine :)
Well... we are quite alike I guess hahaha !!! And yes, you should !!! My home is open for you - you know that ;)))
Athens is lovely! Last time I was there we Player at Gagarin - that’s a really nice venue...
Gagarin is one of our best [they say, I've never been, at least not yet, unfortunately!] Thank you :D
Hope I can go some day. Greece has always drawn me. And now that you say that greeks are loud and proud, sounds like we could get along!!! Lovely photos!
I think our cultures are pretty similar so I'm sure you'd have an amazing time!!! Thank you - the best I could with my iPhone [shame, shame photographer ahahaha]
Beautiful pictures! I love Greece and the Greek Islands. You cannot beat the hospitality of Greek citizens! and Everywhere is so child friendly too! Have a fabulous time @meanmommy33 :)
We are pretty cool aren't we? ahahaha !!!
I hope you had fun in Cyprus - pretty much the same ;)
I had more chores to do than fun but it was ok and with a glorious weather !!!!
Yes, you are all awesome! hehe Cyprus was a beautiful country. It was hard work with our son tbh, but the place was amazing and it was a good break from normality :)
I loved Athens and all of the other spots I have been in Greece. Hopefully I will get to go back someday. Thanks for sharing all these pictures of your home town! 💙 🇬🇷
You've been to Athens ???? Woooow !!!! Ok it seems a lot of you have or want to so maybe instead of @copensteem I should organize Steemathens? xD
Thanks for the love and for liking the pics here - the weather helped a lot !!! :D
Wait! Where are the protests, @meanmommy33? How come you've missed Greek protests? ;))
Maybe you shouldn’t believe everything you see on TV,media are evil ;)))
Of course media are evil, but the Greek protests are a common folk tradition, @meanmommy33 :)))
I wouldn’t say that but then again what do I know...am I Greek? Oh wait,I AM ahahaha xD
You look so Italian, @meanmommy33. ;)))
...but I am not :D only Italian origins and lived in Italy for some years ;)
Athenian to be more exact :)))
Awesome shots! Hope you're having an amazing time visiting home!
Thank you dear !!!
Back and trying to catch up with everything - we'll talk soon !!!
I had some fun but I am exhausted - mostly stuff I had to do than relaxing... :*
No worries - I'm here whenever, so shout out after you've gotten caught up.
So, talk to you in a couple months... LOL!
😘 😂💜
Ahh Greece...it always intrigues me mainly because it has a rich history related to the Bible and Christianity.
I don't like bragging about my country, but our history and geographical position - between 3 continents - I understand that intrigue people !!! :D
Glad you like it girl - and you know who your guide is gonna be if you decide to join !! :D <3
Oh it's not bragging at all @meanmommy. The islands are FANTASTIC and I always dream of visiting one of them someday!
@meanmommy33
may all your dreams come true <3
b.a.
Oh you cannot imagine how much that fits here at this very moment ;))) Thanks :*
But...I looked for the winners of that challenge and didn't see anything! :/
I visited Athens last summer and really liked the city, especially the less touristy parts like Exarchia with some really cool street art and grafitti, and the zoo park. What was your favourite part?
By the way @colossus39 - you should definitely try and make it out to Athens if you haven't been yet!
Glad you liked it!
But...I don’t get that “What’s was your favorite part?”......? I am from Athens,it wasn’t a one time visit.I thought it was obvious from my post! And I am sure he would love that,told him already!!! :D
That's awesome and sorry, I blame my eyes considering it was quite late, at the end of a VERY long day when I read your post! Plus you can still have a favourite part/district in your home city :-) And yes, he would be all over that!
Nah, I thought I wasn't that clear in this particular post now that I see/read it again - even though it is known around that I am from Athens ;) So no need to apologize!! :)))
Athens IS such a beautiful city, the light there is so distinctive! Glad you are "home" for awhile :-)
Glad you like it :) And it is actually home... It was hectic, but it's always good at least for a little while ;)
