I am studying in Athens for the Fall 2005 semester. Things I love about Athens include "peripteroes", men in tight jeans, the stray dogs, feta cheese, the incredible sunlight, and European house music.... full info
Mike and MeThis is me with one of my best friends here, Mike. Mike goes to Bowdoin, is from Chicago, and is wonderful.
A Beautiful NightThis is the Herrodes Atticus Theater in Greece. It is a very famous and old outdoor theatre. My friends and I saw a performance of the Greek tragedy, Agamemmnon. It was in Greek, but I read the Sparknotes before, so I could keep up to speed on what was happening!
Where's the Hare?A lovely turtle we met on our way. Our guide told us it was good luck to pet its shell. (Meanwhile, I was pretending that it was my adorable little Gizzy!)
The AmericansThis is me with the other CYA kids on the hike.
Greek FoodAfter our hike, we had lunch at a traditional Greek restaurant. On our table, you can see Greek salad (no lettuce, just cucumbers, tomatores, and LOTS of feta), squid (ew), and Saganaki (fried gruyere cheese).
