i am greek but i will try to be objective. So, we are not famous for our organisating skills. But i think we could be famous for our love for fun and life. Of course if we reffer to the ancient times, Greeks are famous until nowdays for their filosophy, though unfortunatelly we do not follow it so much anymore...

all people are unique and famous !!!!

but Greek people are famous because they know how to enjoy life even when they have nothing: they sing and dance when they are sad, they laugh when they have to cry,they share their food even when they have only one bite...........there will be sun tomorrow even if we won't be there to share

...in Turkey! :-)

For the question which u asked in Turkey category: Our country just think about economy and help from Europe..I think if we become a member of EU, our economy won't be indepented (u know goverment will change our money to Euro for sure)..We managed without EU for 86 years, we can manage without EU for more years too.

Thanks for choosing me as the best answer for your other question ;-)

Greetings from Turkey ;-)
