χίλια ευχαριστώ!! With deepest respect i have been 2 times in Athens and i felt like i was in Ancona my headcity!
@@samuelesdrucciolo ancona is a main port like bari? 🤔
@@fotiskarkanis9221 yes there is a big Port ! Many ferries go to Patra and Igoumenitza and also to Albania and Croatia !
Most people these days live with their parents due to financial reasons, not necessarily because they want to, but they have to.
In the past, many young people would still choose to live with their parents despite having a job and being able to afford a place of their own. 30-years-old and even 40-year-olds living with their parents has been a common trope and occurrence for a long time. Many people, even after moving out, still accept tupperware-fulls of food from their mums, even today.
It's the culture - like one interviewee mentioned, in this part of the world, people keep their family close.
@@EasyGreekVideos I'm from India, and in some ways, the family culture is quite similar. With this Modern age, people want to be independent and live according to themselves.
In the past, having joint families and spending time with the family was a big part of their everyday lives.
In this context... I myself live away from my family, but I still get Tupperware from my mum. 😅
@@EasyGreekVideos τώρα έχει αλλάξει θέλουμε αλλά δεν μπορούμε.. επειδή είναι πολλές και καλοπληρωμένες οι δουλειές.
@@EasyGreekVideos I'm from Turkey and most people here live with their parents until they get married..it depends on the wish and financial situation of the person to decide to move out.. I think it's about the Mediterranean culture, as you said, 'in this part of the world, people keep their family close' ✨
@@EasyGreekVideos I think your answer is biased or just aimed at proving something that is completely wrong. Anyone trying to prove that the economy and unemployment in Greece have not played a catalytic role in the fact that young adults are unable to leave their parents' place, they are either naive or liars. Having seen several videos of your channel, I have to say that it seems that the choice of people you make in your videos is very selective and not open. Also the questions you ask are very targeted and in no way appropriate for decent research. Even if the Greek past results in people choosing to stay with their parents, you have to think about the current situation which is super unhealthy and it does not help young adults to find their paths. As a 26-year-old Greek woman who left her parents' home 9 months ago, and having friends of the same age, I have to tell you that our salaries have never been good and the rents are absurdly high. Also, at the beginning of our studies, I and many other people I know, had the "misfortune" not to have experience and so we could not find a job even in restaurants, cafes, etc. And people keep telling us we are lazy... Yes, if unemployment or working more than 12 hours overtime is laziness, then that's ok by me. Greece is dealing with many many issues and yes, most of them are the result of having a toxic culture, but the current financial situation and the non-desire of helping young people to grow, doesn't do any good. On the contrary, it makes things worse. Another point that I would like to make is that my parents weren't living with my grandparents as a married couple, which means that this kind of past you are referring to, seems to be just... past. And I think most of the Greek married couples of this generation don't live with their own parents, too.
In the US it is becoming more and more common for Americans to live with their parents past the age of 30 because of how expensive things have become. It would not surprise me to see people from other countries having to deal with the same financial struggles.
For Greece it's different. For our culture especially in older generations adult children living with their parents until marriage was the norm. So the crux of the question is primarily from cultural point of you.
@@eskarinablack4830 That is very interesting. Thank you for replying to my comment.
In the USA it is more common to have 10 roommates lol rather than really living at home with parents.
Greek American here. There was definitely a lot of push here in the US growing up to leave home at 18, which clashed with the cultural expectation I grew up with that kids generally live longer with their parents and multi-generational households weren't considered strange. I did leave at 18 since my university was several hours from my parents' house, but this was right after the Great Recession and now I know plenty of people like you said you had to stay home because of finances.
Ευχαριστώ πολύ για αυτό το επεισόδιο ! When I was younger, I could not wait to leave home (and did) ... but now as I get older, the more I am thinking about returning home if only to spend more time around my aging parents and not just leave them to be alone. It is a strange thing - On one hand, I think I feel the social pressure or expectation (... not sure ?) to be independent and live away from home, but on the other hand, they would be so happy for me to return. 🥰
Your comment is quite touching. This is the cycle of life.
Also here in Italy its the same, young people leave around 30 or even later...the main reason is economical obviously, but its also because today we want less responsabilities, and to live alone does it mean to buy food, to cook, to clean house, to wash clothes, to pay taxes... and some some other "not funny" things that today do our Mom.
So are two reasons inside
Which part of Italy do you live in? I'm visiting Rome on 1st of June.
@@DLGemma im in North East of Italy, near Border with Slovenia
ITALIAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
the main thing ur videos teach me is that every single greek person is attractive and that also i love the way greek sounds
Εξαιρετικό το τέλος χαχα. Εγώ έφυγα επίσης λόγω άλλης πόλης και σπουδών στα 18, αλλά πάντα με οικονομική στήριξη από τους γονείς. Αλλιώς, φεύγεις για σπουδές και πρέπει να βρεις παράλληλα και δουλειά. Αλλά σε περιόδους ανεργίας που γυρίζεις στον τόπο σου, αν δεν υπάρχει δεύτερο σπίτι, μένεις πάλι με τους δικούς σου.
Κι εγώ έφυγα στα 17 από το σπίτι αλλά με στήριξη από γονείς. -Δημήτρης
In Mexico we do that too, although young people move out young some do remain with their parents or re-move with them when they grow old
Η δική μας είναι μια ζεστότερη κουλτούρα
Sometimes we also bring our old parents together. Well, most of the time is just one of the old parents, apparently because always one of them dies faster. I believe this is a very Medditarenean culture. Greece, Italy, and Spain share some similar cultures when it comes to family and I believe it has to do with religion too. To respect your elder people, take care of your parents,
δεν ειναι προυποθεση για να ωριμασει κανεις και να ειναι ανεξαρτητος, το να φυγει απο το σπιτι του. ειναι προβληματικη η αντιληψη οτι πρεπει μολις γινεις 18 να φυγεις απο την οικογενεια σου
Most south europe and the balkans do this
Πρέπει να κάνετε ένα επεισόδιο που μιλάει για της διάφορες διαλέκτους στην Ελληνική γλώσσα.
@Fluffery Έχουμε κάνει βίντεο για τα κρητικά και για τα κυπριακά!
μου αρέσει να μιλάω ελληνικά
Do you have transcripts of the episodes by any chance?
It's on our Patreon!
Some people respond with "well my parents made me leave the moment I turned 18" when I say I'm 22 and live at home and it's just like....I'm sorry you're so difficult to be around that your own parents couldn't stand you in the house for another moment beyond what they were legally required to give you shelter?
Even if you want to leave , you can't.
Most jobs for people 20-30 years old pay around 800 euros per month.
A house to rent in Athens costs from 400€ to 600€.
So all your money go to the rent, and even if you live with someone else, that also has a job, the money are not enough to live properly.
It's only getting worse, unfortunately.
I am 30 years old and I am still with my parents cause economics and I am studying , if I was graduete I where left at 20 or 25 in abroad
Ευχαριστώ!
Και εμείς !
Curious how in most of these delightful video clip of probing questions - there are many times where the Greek person answering the questions uses a English word - this time the word was "challenges".... I am astonished to see the infiltration of English words into everyday usage of the Greek citizens.
It's very common among young Greeks who spend a big chunk of their time online in English-speaking environments.
@@EasyGreekVideos I understand - let me say - I really enjoy all of your segments - I learn something from each of them. Why I even mentioned this about the incorporation of English words into native Greek language is the deflation of the Greek language. When I go to Greece and see most Retail & Restaurants with primary logos in English it saddens me. WHY??? Keep the Greek first and in lower font size translate into English. Even the word "SALES" on storefronts instead of ekptoseis is an affront on the Greek culture which is precious!
Στην Ιταλία...την ίδια ιστορία! Μονάχα όταν βρίσκεις μια δουλειά για να είσαι αυτόνομος... Οι περισσότεροι φεύγουν από μεγάλοι
Νομίζω σε πολλές χώρες της Μεσογείου φεύγουμε πιο μεγάλοι .. Χαιρετισμούς ! Μαριλου
Σίγουρα παίζει ρόλο και το ποια είναι η σχέση του καθενός με την οικογένεια του, επιπλέον αν ο τόπος από που είσαι έχει ευκαιρίες ανάπτυξης για εργασία, ψυχαγωγία κτλ... Προσωπικά για μένα είναι κακό να μένεις με τους γονείς σου από κάποια ηλικία κ μετά, γιατί δεν μπορείς να ανεξάρτητοποιηθεις εύκολα όταν είσαι σε μεγαλύτερη ηληκια , ίσως είναι πιο μεγάλες οι δυσκολίες..

People in 1900s wouldn't leave their parents alone now they don't care
Αν πληρώνεις τους φόρους και κανείς ότι απαιτείται. Έχεις δικιά σου δουλειά ποιο είναι το πρόβλημα; Το μόνο πρόβλημα μπορεί να είναι αν θέλεις να φέρεις γκόμενο στο σπίτι να είναι άβολο. Οκ; το δέχομαι..
Δηλαδή αν είναι κάποιος 35 και πληρώνει φόρους και έχει δουλειά σου φαίνεται οκ να μένει με γονείς;
Μα αν είσαι 30 και δεν μπορείς να φέρεις γκομενο στο σπίτι, αυτό είναι πολύ σημαντικό πρόβλημα....
@@lvpb13 τέτοιοι αλήτες που είναι όλοι μικρή η απώλεια...
Δηλαδή κάποιος που φεύγει από το σπίτι πχ στα 18 του να σπουδάσει και του πληρώνουν οι γονείς σπίτι και τα παρελκόμενα θεωρείτε και αυτόνομος ?? Κάλο !!!
Είναι πιο αυτόνομος από αυτόν που δεν φεύγει καθόλου από το σπίτι του!
Μπορεί οικονομικά όχι, αλλά μαθαίνει τα βασικά της αυτοεπιβίωσης. Πρέπει να φροντίζει το σπίτι, μαγειρεύει, πλένει, πληρώνει λογαριασμούς, πρέπει να μάθει να διαχειρίζεται σωστά τα λεφτά κι αν συμβεί κάτι πρέπει να το αντιμετωπίσει μόνος-η ή και με κάποιους φίλους και δεν θα έχει τη μαμά και τον μπαμπά να τρέχουν από την άλλη χώρα/ πόλη να βοηθήσουν. Όταν μένεις μόνος πρέπει να μάθεις πως να δημιουργείς και ουσιαστικές σχέσεις με τους γύρο σου, γιατί ουσιαστικά αυτοί θα γίνουν η οικογένειά σου για τα επόμενα χρόνια.
I'm Polish who is going to study Romanian and I'm surprised you sometines sound a little Romanian!
Μπράβο σου Μαριλένα. Φιλάκια από το Βερολίνο
Ευχαριστώ!!
Εντάξει νομίζω το βιντεάκι λίγο άκυρο, δεν είναι δυνατόν να κάνεις τέτοια ερώτηση και να ρωτάς 18χρονα, ρωτάς αυτούς που έχουν φύγει ήδη ή έστω έχουν μια ηλικία και μπορεί να έχουν φύγει απο το σπίτι κ τους ρωτάς σε ποια ηλικία έφυγαν!
Εν μέρει ναι, αλλά διαπιστώνουμε τη στροφή στις προτεραιότητες των νέων, που πλέον θέλουν να φύγουν το συντομότερο από το σπίτι των γονιών τους.
Ο "ακριβές ηλικία" κρύβει χρόνια από τώρα!!
Μάλλον ήταν άνω των 18 και οι άλλοι ανήλικοι κι ίσως φοβήθηκε...
Esy sto 2:37 ama to vlepeis apanta edw :D
WHY YOU LEAVE ME DONCHU LOVE ME NO MORE
Randomly came into this video. Do you think Southern Europeans are used/abused as emotional support by their parents and guilt trapped when they wanna leave?
I can't speak for everyone, but I do know of some cases where this is definitely true.
Yes.
Yup. It happens a lot, somehow the parents feel insecure, especially if they have only one child. Maybe they would be ok if you moved alone to another apartment in the same city or at the very least to another city in the country, but if you tell them "Mom, Dad, I found a job in the UK, I am leaving" they will have 5 heart attacks and 6 strokes at the same time. cause somehow they think if you leave you will never return back. which could possible, so they start thinking," What if I get sick? What if I die? Will they come to see me?" :O Also the majority of parents here pumper their kids, like my parents for example will be like: "It's ok if work doesn't go well now, here take 300 euros extra xD" So they act like they will be forever here protecting and securing for which is not the case. Somehow I feel that we are trapped in a very co-dependent toxic relationship with our parents and of course if you marry someone obviously you marry the whole family and he marries yours :)
Εξαρτάται την οικογενειακή κατάσταση από όλες τις οπτικές γωνίες..... ίσως οι γονείς δεν μπορούν να μείνουν μόνοι;;;;Για πολλούς λόγους.
