I am about to do much the same as Rachel and thoroughly enjoyed her account. But then I too am a Kiwi (of the golden oldie variety Rachel. I did what your doing in the 60′s ….I haven’t grown up yet!)so understood her depracating type of humour.

This was/is a good post….remember…I never promised you a rose garden. I like the candid approach and if this is how R felt, then I’m glad she told the truth…loved it folks.

An interesting read, and I loved the fact cheese solves problems! Good excuse for me to eat more cheese!

Joking aside, shame that at times it was overwhelming for Rachael, but she adapted and visited some amazing locations. 🙂

A good honest read.

No disrespect, but the reproduction of negative, as well as false national stereotypes is neither cute nor humorous and we are all responsible for what we write or publish.
Some of the words used about the Greek people in the full version of the article are downright offensive.
(Btw., the Acropolis shuts early in the afternoon because the gvmt cannot afford more staff, IMF and all, and not due to laziness!!!!.
And yes the scaffolding is necessary for preserving one of the most remarkable buildings ever made)
Ignorance is bliss for those who can afford it. Hopefully our friend will eventually return to Greece with a more open heart and mind. Be well;)

That was an awesome read! Loved the time breakdowns. Very funny. 🙂 Sounds like buses are not very reliable there!

Hi Mondy,

Sorry you didn’t enjoy my post. There were parts of Greece I loved but sadly a lot of things went wrong for me and I have tried to humorously reflect on them in my week in the life series. Apologises you don’t understand my sense of humour!

And to Jo,

Awesome news you’re travelling, flick me a message on my website if you need advice. I also went to Santorini which I loved and I can definitely recomend some places there.

And finally to Nora, thanks for publishing my post!
