Athens is full of history, full of life, it compines the old with the new, try to go for a walk in Placa, and see in the top of the hill Acropolis, feel the rythm of the past in ancient streets where some ancient philosophers has walked, smell the air with honeysuckle, see old house compines with new ones, go to the monument of the in Syntagma square, taste the greek cuisine, Athens is a city that has all!, well many strangers has comes the last years but this dont have chance the caracter of the town. Athens is one of the last citys that has stayed in our world, preserve it like a treasure!.

I lived in Athens for about a year, both in Plaka and Neos Kosmos. I absolutely had the time of my life in Athens. For one, I loved living among so much history. Seriously, waking up every day drinking coffee on your balcony while looking at the Acropolis is amazing. I like the laid back lifestyle, but also how crazy you guys can get around Carnival and when you won the Euro Cup two years ago. The people are some of the friendliest I have ever met, and the metro is the cleanest I've seen. I'd do anything to live in Athens.

I had the chance to visit Athens last summer. It was GREAT! I love the city because it has something really special, you can feel it just walking. I think it has something to do with the past, with the history of Athens. Still Athens is a modern and dynamic city! I was amased also by the beauty of greek people! A greek woman looks like those beautiful sculptures from ancient times!

I don't like living in Athens, but then I don't like living in cities at all. Unfortunately, I have to live in Athens because I work there. My village, however, is wonderful.
