    My Greek language teacher, Evgenia, here on Syros, her parents lived in Venezuela - she came here when she was 5. They are of Greek heritage though. She said a lot of people came back back then, due to the economy, even back then. She said there used to be a big Greek community there. Which we still have in Australia. You look very Australian in those flip flops Daniel))

We are going back to Greece this Summer - we are in love with this country! We are both born and raised in America but my parents are Colombian and his parents are Mexican and I noticed there is a lot of similarities in Greece in the culture and even how shops and the streets are laid out. Sometimes it feels like Greece is the Latin American in Europe haha Anyway thank you for sharing!

    Hello, born & raised Greek from Philadelphia, USA. Congrats on your good work showcasing Greece. I’ve never done a KZread video so I don’t know whether you re “stuck” with its translation” tool. If it allows overriding it please type «τσίπουρο», “tsipouro” not, “Chapo, cheaper, cheap poodle” that last one had me laughing 😂instead of the words KZread made up by the sound. “Bakaliko” instead of “balico” Also please clarify was Panayotis drinking ouzo? You said “mastiha” and I was curious if ouzo is what you meant.

    "mastiha" is a sweet liqueur produced with the mastiha tree resin from Chios. It is usually consumed as a digestif and it has become quite popular in the last 10-15 years. If you haven't tried it already, it's a must try on your next visit. Take care.

    It really depends on a lot of factors For example if you have a place to live in, if you can buy an apartment or whatever can make a huge difference What kind of job you do Alot of jobs are basic income style but there are sectors out there well paid About 900.000 Greeks left the country after the 08 crisis but here is the thing The vast majority of them had university degrees that were desperately needed in northern Europe, medical professionals, lawyers ect an average guy has no chance of a better life as an immigrant and that's why as we say here in Greece many of them returned with the " tail behind the legs" It's also very common to see Greek companies earning contracts in Abroad and rotate workers from Greece almost like a military deployment, instead of locals because Greek technicians and blue collar workers have a good name 😉 Ofc those workers are going to get 5 or even 6 times the amount of money they would have gotten working the entire year in Greece Other well paid sectors are shipping, restaurant business, truck driving ( international transports) and self employment at anything that doesn't have to do with domestic markets If you are really into it you can make it Probably you will never become rich in Greece but you can definitely make a modest lifestyle if it's what you are looking 😉
