Hello everyone, I have a difficult situation with documents, I will be very glad if you help. I am 18 years old, I am a citizen of Greece and I have lived in Ukraine since I was a child. When I was 17 years old, I applied to the Greek embassy to get a passport or a travel document, but the ambassador said that for this I needed an identity card or Greek witnesses, the migration service of Ukraine said that they they can't make an ID because I'm a foreigner. And I cannot find witnesses of Greeks in Ukraine. I have been sitting without documents for a year, I cannot leave, study, or work because I do not have an identity card. Please help, any options.🙏

You're lucky, Greek Embassy would not even acknowledge my Greek citizenship even though I have an expired passport as without knowing where I am recorded in Greece I can't get one. At least you only need a Greek witness which is not so hard.

Surely there must be a naturalisation process which gives you automatic rights to become citizen of Ukraine? What about your parents?...any family?.... going on Social media asking for assistance in your area?...... Good luck!... What about your records? Your birth certificate?...
 

Best Off the Beaten Track Islands in Greece

I recently had some friends tell me about their trip to Greece, which involved Mykonos and Santorini. He said those two places were so busy, it ruined the enjoyment of it.

We are planning a trip to Greece next year and want to try some smaller islands that are more like "hidden gems" than tourist traps. Someone told me that Aegina is a nice place, as well as Paros. Do you guys have any advice other than those two islands?

September in Greece Tips and Advice

It has been a while since I went to Greece in September, and when I went, it was in late September. This time, I will be going earlier in the month. I will be flying into Athens from Toronto, so I will be pretty jet lagged once I arrive.

I am not sure how long I want to stay in Athens. It seems that, in the past, I haven't gotten too far past the Athens area and I kind of want to change it. These days, most of the people I am visiting are in the Athens area so I will be spending a lot of time at their homes, staying with people, etc.

Meanwhile I want to see something else. I have a few days - maybe 5 nights or so - to spend somewhere else, and I want to pick a spot and stay there. Do you have any recommendations? I know that is vague - I want to have some nice, relaxing beach time, and I am not too concerned about whether or not there are crowds or plenty to do. I want beaches and great places to eat (easy in Greece!).

Good Spas in Greece

Is it common to find spas while in Greece? I have bumped into some information about them, but I don't hear a lot about people who visit them.

I will likely be in Greece for a while - several weeks - and I am thinking I might need a down day or two.

I will be visiting Athens, Aegina, and Santorini on this trip.

Most fires in Greece were started ‘by human hand’, government says.

This has already caused many cancellations due to fear being created by exaggerated reporting which the Media takes pleasure in! The problems here are next year's bookings as both Rhodes and Corfu are main stream tourism destination for Brits and Germans accounting for many millions.
