Would Love to Experience the Greek Kalanda Tradition!

I would love to experience the Greek Kalanda tradition for myself in Greece. Does anyone have any advice on how to make that happen this year? I plan to go to Greece in a few weeks to visit some people and hope to see this first-hand. It seems like a really great tradition.

Do you know that I have never actually done it? I am not sure where to start. Maybe someone with experience can chime in here...

You might see some caroling in syntagma on ermou, but if you really want to experience it then you need to be in the neighborhoods where locals live. Kids make the most money there by going door-to-door to sing carols

Oh! I understand - unless I can experience the feeling of when the kids come to the door, I won't really experience the whole thing. Thank you!
