Life is different in Greece. Especially when you don't understand Greek whatsoever, and they don't understand you. However, so far we have managed to have a great time. Friday night we went out for an adventure throughout the Greek pubs, which was a lot of fun, until my wallet went missing (blah!) However, I still have my passport and in the grand scheme of things, that's all that really matters. Then Saturday, we went on a long hike, and hung out around campus until late in the evening when we decided to go downtown so a few girls could get some crepes. Sunday was spent with Anna and Gracie at one of the only open cafes (happened to be a crepe shop) and we played cards and chatted. Today was our first day of Greek class, and we also got registered with the University. Greek is an entirely different language than French (which I learned in High School) and has a lot of unique symbols used for its alphabet. Luckily, being in the Greek System does help (somewhat) but not enough to put me ahead of the game, per say.
Here's some pictures so you can see what I've been up to :)
best chocolate, banana, and strawberry crepe EVER!
