Are the electrical outlets in Greece the same as the ones in North America? Thanks!

You will need an adaptor (Transformer) to step down the Greek 220-240 volts to the 110-115 v that american appliances have. Also, the plug-in adaptor as the prongs are round rather than flat.
Usually, transformer-adaptors are sold in travel shops and sometimes at some airports. The Greek electrical system is the same as in most European countries except England.

OXI (nope).
It's 240Volts there and 120Volts here. Buy the transformer here before you go, just make sure it's large enough to accomondate your wattage loads.
Good luck.

oh no....our things don't plug in there unless you use a converter that can be bought.....I killed my American cell phone battery plugging it in thinking this "thingy" was an adapter....
One good thing their irons are terrific with the higher voltage..
