    Giannis Antetokounmpo meets with Greek prime minister!!

    I loved watching Giannis throughout the playoffs and im so happy that he's getting the recognition he deserves!! And meeting with the prime minister, how cool :) I think it will be very helpful to have Giannis as a cultural ambassador to Greece in the US

    A little bit about Katharevousa (formal Greek)

    This is true, Ive heard many people say that English is pretty hard in terms of getting the grammar perfect, but because there is no verb conjugations its actually pretty easy to communicate when you don't know it perfectly

    Really? So then how come Greeks add "Aki" to make everything "little"?

    Traditional Greek dances and where they come from!

    I love attempting to learn Greek dances but I also think it's important to learn about which region of Greece each dance comes from. Here are some examples that I pulled from the list on this website...

    What are the best souvenirs to get a man from Greece?

    My guy friend isn't really a foodie, so I don't want to get him honey or spices like I usually get my friends. Is there something I could get a guy that he would really like from Greece? He's not into soccer either, so I wouldn't think to get him a Greek soccer jersey.

    What is the culture around covid safety like in Greece?

    I haven't talked to too many people who've visited Greece this year. I'm pretty covid safe, and I don't like being in places where people aren't following social distancing and mask rules. I worry that because people are on vacation and enjoying themselves that they aren't following the rules...

    What are the responsibilities of a koumbaro/koumbara?

    I think you can really make being a koumbaro/a your own role! Talk with the family and see what you both envision. It can be your own
