I am a Greek living in Spain, I love your videos and I admire your lack of prejudice in your descriptions. Yes, I agree to everything you said, we are loud, we don't know the meaning of queuing, and we drive like crazy!

Ωραίο video, μπράβο! Προτείνω επίσης να κάνεις ένα video για την θάλασσα και το μπάνιο στην ελλάδα, από όσο ξέρω και από την δικιά μου εμπειρία, ελάχιστα μέρη στον κόσμο έχουν την ελληνική κουλτούρα του μπάνιου στην παραλία, ιδίως κάποιοι που είμαστε λίγο μεγαλύτεροι θυμόμαστε τις 3μηνες διακοπές το καλοκαίρι με μπάνιο πρωί απόγευμα κάθε μέρα. επίσης δεν νομίζω να υπάρχουν πολλά μέρη στον κόσμο με τόσες πολλές καλές παραλίες.

watching from Dundee, Scotland

The Vatican is nice too!

I’m an American born in America my families from Sparta. They came over in 1921. I love visiting Greece. I’m in the process of applying for dual citizenship. Your videos are the best on the country of Greece on the Internet. I can listen to your voice all day. You’re an inspiration God bless. Keep them coming.

Greece is, it seems to me, the most beautiful place to live in Europe because it combines many advantages and the best is the quality of life, in terms of food, sociability, feeling of community (to be maintained ) and the mutual aid that results from it, especially in medium-sized or even smaller towns. I really like the rhythm of work interspersed with a restful nap and then, when we are aware of the hours and closings of the stores, we organize ourselves... All that remains is to develop an online activity profitable, move, organize and settle in. (I'm writing from France)

Watching from Derbyshire, England, UK

1. Brakes and seatbelts are for pussies 😂😂😂

I enjoy watching your videos from Portland, Oregon USA

The first one hit a little too hard. When I visited for the second time in Rhodes, my boyfriend was ordering me a Gyros, and a man parked his car in the middle of the road and went in line to order himself a gyros. I was astonished how not a single person complained, and instead, they all just drove around the car whose driver side door was left open 😂

Very thoughtful! Thank you!

Warwick, NY ευχαριστώ

I am Greek and I am just squishing my mind on how to balance my expectations so I can come back. High paying salary is hard to part away from :( golden chains

I don't feel comfortable in the countryside. I like hustle and bustle. I don't like lots of heat. I love the greenery of temperate zones. I'm very rooted in the land I was born in. I've never wanted to live abroad. I don't want to move away from family and friends.

presently watching our village of Kiveri in back of you across the bay.....from Atlanta, Georgia Amerikee.....nice video plus your explanations are right on. To your left, the old Xenia Hotel, now closed, was designed by my professor Ike Saporta, Architect, in 1968. In the distance looking past the Palamedo Castle is the little Island of Plati, which I designed a Hotel in 1972, but unfortunately, the island was deemed not buildable by the government, mainly due to no water (like Spetses).

From US

Very true about the language I am from Scotland and some people can’t understand me in England when I speak and I am not broad spoken I suppose it’s all down to dialects in different parts of the country you come from

Toilet without the seat means they don’t want you to take a number 2 😂

Most of your points are pretty universal. It's like that in South Africa.

Watching from London❤

U know the bread thing? Well shockingly it varies. In Corfu Palaiokastritsa we went to a traditional taverna and we ordered Greek salad & Tzatziki and they refused to bring us any. There was a huge "situation" and in the end a very rude member of staff announced they actually had no bread because the British tourists never asked for ot and that they only served a home made flatbread that was ridiculously expensive. By the end of the debate the mains were getting cold and so was our enthusiasm for the salads. Weird yes?

This is how I feel sometimes when I go there. People ask me where im from when i speak greek LOL its even harder because the greek I learned is half island dialect.

from Finland

The first derelict building in Arvanitia Beach was alive and kicking in the 80's we have many fond memories there and photos of good times. The second building was the original Xenia hotel which was amazing and had the most futuristic architecture for those days. It was functioning throught my childhood in the 70 and it was a sight to behold. Sadly the economic crisis and the crippling interests imposed by the loan-shark-like German banks & the IMF ,have taken their toll. Not to mention the second wave of poverty that came with covid. You should come to the UK even central London and count the number of boarded up businesses. The banks are having a field day in Greece, confiscating buildings. This is what bankruptcy looks like. If you look back to when the crisis begin, you will see an upward trend of male suicide as many dads lost their businesses and homes to the banks. Happy father's day!

I disagree with the idea of not speaking English, at least if you're a prilvileged 1st worlder. But that is a half-life, a shadow life in which you're always missing out. Do language lessons and save yourself a lot of time.BTW my daughter used to make fun of my Greek as well.

In Patras, where I live, there is airconditioning everywhere. Unfortunately, the empty buildings that are actually incomplete, oftentimes it's because people cannot afford to finish building them or as you have sais, they are doing it very slowly - what that means is they save up money and then continue building as much as the money will cover. That can't happen in the US or the UK. In most new places, nowadays, especially cafeterias they have a seat, but ladies know better than to use them! Think about the why🤔 The queue situation has also improved unless the people you're in line with are from three generations back or is a loser. I'm Greek-American, my husband not - he's the shouting partner in my marriage. Evey time I say to him that there's no need to shout, he shouts back, "but that's how I am!"😀

Greek that grew up abroad. Belgium . The Netherlands and now 10 years in the UK. Watching from the UK. Nice videos. Makes you want to move. Maybe in the future😊

From South Carolina, USA. It's gorgeous. Thank you for sharing.

Greetings from Brazil

Who keeps the path cleared?

Ohio, USA.

True, we cannot compare London to Athens or anywhere else in Greece because these are incompatible. One can compare London with other cities in the UK. As you have pointed out, each place has its own uniqueness. And again as you've pointed out, it all depends on what you're looking for. I was born in Greece, Pireaus but grew up in Houston, Texas, USA. I chose to return to Greece because life here seemed to me better grounded. I missed the cold spring weather, the fact that I could take a bus anywhere and from 1983 to 1990 crime was next to none. So, I know where you're coming from. All the best!

What's the beach at 2:24? Looks cool and calm. Cheers.

Daniel, I just watched your video on how you make a living in Greece. You inspire me as an aspiring entrepreneur. You mentioned that you took an inventory of all of your skills after the Kafenio didn't workout. Can you elaborate (maybe a future video?) on how should we go about taking stock on our skills and how to translate them to an online business? That would be awesome coming form you. Thank you, Daniel. Saludos!!

Driving -Οδηγηση 😱😢

I was laughing so hard with number 6! Its so true! lol :) The bottle of water and bread is called kouver here on Greece and its been that way for a long time. I can understand that it must be weird for a tourist but dont get to worried cuz it only cost a couple of euros. I wanna add that most of the time they dont force you to buy the water just the bread. Greetings to everyone from Athens Greece. :)

I watch your videos from California,united states

Watching from Syros Island.

Watching from Toronto, CANADA

You and Dimitra go very well together! People in Greece are so sucked into the economic crisis that most of us are still going through PTSD. Thank you for pointing out what we must be grateful for. Greetings from Patras! PS: living in rural Greece is very quiet and at times it can be lonely. I lived in Kefallonia when I was 25 and left when I was 29. For my kids it was magical, for me very lonely. I'm going back permanently next month, but I'm 62 now; different mentality and needs.

Tavernas charge you only for bottled water. You can always ask for tap water instead, which is free, and refuse the bread. I live in the US, and restaurants here also charge for bottled water.

We get it. You got yourself a Greek wife and moved to Greece. You chose to play life on Hardcore mode. Good luck to all of us.

enjoy watching your videos. looking from Norway

Dο your thing αδελφε!

Watching from Agios Konstantinos, Central Greece. Water and bread WAS always without cost. Now many, mostly dodgy restaurants charge a coperto (κουβέρ), this is illegal in Greece, but they do it anyhow.

Απόλυτα σωστός και μπράβο σου! ❤

Yes Greece like Indy 500. Though I never drove in Athens.

great video i love your videos And secondly, I really hope your wife doesn't see the video😀
