Greece in Hindsight!

     When i first applied to the Greece trip, i was only told about the chaos of the Greek lifestyle. I assumed most of what i had heard was an exaggeration, and that it couldn't possibly be that bad... I couldn't have been more wrong...
     While in Greece, i saw more locals that i thought were going to kill each other, than those acting peaceful... It seemed as though the morning cafe's were the place to be for the older gentlemen to discuss EVERYTHING! This picture above was probably the most extreme conversation i saw the entire trip. The gentlemen in the middle was having some sort of conversation with what felt like the whole cafe. And it seemed as though he would be damned if he didn't get his point across.
     Although it took me some time to figure out the chaos within the Greek culture, it was always meant there was something going on and that there was never a dull moment. I feel not knowing what i was getting into made the trip that more of an adventure. And after a little bit of time, you begin to get connected with the chaos. When things seem frantic and they feel as though the whole world is coming down, you know it will all work out. It's just the lifestyle of the chaotic Greek, and i wouldn't want it any other way.
