Final comments
For someone who does not speak or read Greek,it's hard at the begining; people may look a little bit angry talking to each other; but that´s just the way they are - mediterraneans with hot blood. Once they trust you, you won't have any problems. Because of that i don't advice you to travel outside the big cities without a greek person to hell you on whatever you may need. Don't be afraid to have fun and to work seriously, because in Greece you can do both. Good luck:-)
