    Are there any good sports bars in Rhodes?

    My friend is visiting Rhodes at the moment and I told him that this forum is a great place to ask niche questions! He's looking for a sports bar to watch the FIFA World Cup qualifiers next week, are there any good spots with big tvs that would most likely be showing the games?

    Which areas in Athens have live Greek music?

    I'd love to have the opportunity to see a nice zeibekiko or kalamatiano live! Are there any areas where I can find a good spot with good live music? I really want to get a taste of the culture and have fun!

    What languages are most similar to Greek?

    I am sooo curious...are there any languages that have similarities to Greek? I know that Greece doesn't derive from another language, but does anyone who speaks another language have an easier time learning Greek?

    Athens has great whimsical restaurants for families and kids!

    This is in the Psiri neighboorhood and it's called Little Kook after Captain Hook from Peter Pan! There's a group of restaurants/ice cream shops that are so pretty and great for families. Everything is lit up at night and offers such a great vibe. For sure check it out!

    What spots do Greek mythology buffs need to visit?

    Oh gosh I forgot about Sounio! Thats one of my favorite places in all of Greece, I should really check it out again thanks for reminding me! I had gone to a wedding at Grecotel and I was shocked at how beautiful the area was (and the hotel)

    When I am dining out in Greece...who pays?

    So always offer? And I guess that way you only end up paying sometimes. Everywhere else if I offer to pay, I'm always paying LOL

    Greeks sometimes speak loudly and use hand gestures- you should start loving it!

    First time I've seen a potentially life saving tip on a travel/culture forum! Wow, I will definitely try to remember this tip. Another thing I've noticed is that in Greece when a car is going to stop, pull over, or slow down they put their hazards on, not something I really see in Canada a whole...

    When I am dining out in Greece...who pays?

    I am under the impression that Greeks don't really split the bill...so when I'm hanging out with my Greek friends in Greece what on earth should I do? This is something I really don't understand as a Canadian
