Day 3 - Sunday





The Acropolis. Great. Magnificent. History making you like a dot of insignificance on the face of this earth. The Cariatides seem to endure a heavy load. I liked them a lot. I think that they display their existance proudly, as most women do!

Tonnes of pictures. Will Amparo have enough for next year when she talks about Greek art?

We made the long bus trip up to Lagadas. 7 hours of sleeping, listening to music and talking. Lots of talking.We arrived in Lagadas, to the warm welcome of the Greek parents.
Now you are all alone in a house that you don´t know. You´ll have to make the effort to communicate with people that probably won´t understand you. Meanwhile, your teachers tell you that this is a good thing! It is indeed, believe it or not! Your opinions of this room, this curtain or this blanket…and the people surrounding you will undoubtedly change after having lived here for 7 days.
