... with an office across the street. We are all in residential apartments. There are 4 apartment buildings with Odyssey students so we really are living with the Greeks! When you walk out my front door, you can see Acropolis which is pretty cool.

I'm in love with the history already. The views are breathtaking and it blows my mind thinking about the thousands of years of stories behind everything.

... was a very knowledgeable man and a very charming person, besides he was fluent in English and didn't smoke in the car. J So we had everything to enjoy our day. The main advantage of a private taxi-tour is that it is the customer-tailored excursion. We were lucky to see the Parthenon early in the morning before the arrival of huge groups of tourists. Also it was wonderful to make stops wherever we wanted to take pictures. In the end of the day after saying goodbye to Simos we ...

... of Western philosophy, science, culture and art. It is an experience one can never forget. When we reached the top of the Acropolis, the ruins that so symbolize the Athenian Civilization was now before us. On this roof of Athens were the Parthenon, Erectheion, and the Temple of Nike, which now houses the Acropolis Archaeological Museum. We walked around and thru these structures of the past that had been built after the Greek victory over the Persians in the Persian War of ...

... Offspring concert and he took us to a couple of pubs (one small, with a Greek music, in a narrow street, another one at the top of a roof, rock music, with a huge screen and a view at Akropolis). We had a lovely evening of conversations and drinking beer (a red one, Craft - recommend you). What I like in Greece is that when you meet friends at a pub, you come up to them and have a few words of conversation. And Antonio knew even barmans there. We went to sleep ...

... about one poem called "Ithaca" that I absolutely loved...and so I'm going to share it with all of you! It's all about the journey being what is important and how you should travel away from home in order to experience knew things and to learn and do as much as you can when you are young, because you can always return home when you are older! It was perfect for this trip! "ITHACA" When you set out on your journey to Ithaca, pray that the road is long, full of ...

... The presentation was followed by Free and Easy. We all decided to go to the Acropolis which is near to our hotel. I enjoyed my time trekking up the slope to see the manificient buildings and statues. We were lucky because it is not the peak season therefore there are not many tourists there. However, one word of advice, if anyone of you would like to take your time to see Acropolis, either cater two days for it or be there when it open in the ...

... 70 euro each and they were beautiful. After dinner we started to walk to see the Acropolis at night and on the way it started to pour down. Tameka and I (being true tourists) wore our trendy ponchos and the canadians brought some ****** bent umbrellas from some dodgey street venders for 3 euro each and we were heaps drier than them (at least we got good use of our 1 buck plastic garbage bags). So basically NO ...

... used it, it was a pleasant change. My salad came and was, of course, delicious. Fresh greens, fresh flaked tuna, olives, dressing, a little hard boiled egg, thick slices of boiled potatoes, fresh tomatoes. As I ate and read, three younger people (two guys, one girl: late twenties, early thirties?) took the table next to me (why? in the almost empty space) and I couldn't help but overhear their conversation- traveling Europe and doing so in far higher style than I could ever ...
