A chat with some residents of Greece

I enjoy the occasional banter with people, so on my recent trip to Greece, I interviewed some of the locals while I was out and about exploring their beautiful city.

Here's what some of them had to say:

"American tourists are the worst," - Nikolas, a security officer at the Acropolis who shared with us who he thinks are the worst tourists

"Me no speak English," - Katia, a ticketing officer at the Acropolis who actually spoke perfect English

"We're not paid enough, so we are just going to ignore you and take a nap instead," - Alexandros & Helena, student archaeologists studying marble columns at the Acropolis

"My sister ran away with my husband," - Cherry, a second-hand bookstore owner, when asked why she looked sad

"Eat my shit," - Cora, a sales assistant at a tourist gift store, when I said that she was blocking the path

"I'll answer your question if you give me some catnip," - Zeus, a young school student

I guess they're not all that different whichever part of the world they're from eh?

So here you go for today, let’s present you Miyo.

Miyo is a 4 years old male cat, I adopted him when he was 3 months. Half Siberian most probably & half street cat ✨

Miyo come from “amore mio” in Italian.

Miyo means also “charming child” in Japanese

*He’s spoiled since he’s a baby by his mom (me)
