I love my greekz

• I live in a small village on the mainland opposite Lefkada and Imust say I love my wonderful neighbours to bits, all warm and friendly, we have laughs and cries and when I started jibbering a bit of greek they all cheered and living here is a bliss, just show them respect, for many ages they fought for freedom and they have certain rules and values that kept them together in many struggles,ask them about history and cuddle the kids, be there with them when they bury their loved ones, and baptize their babies, and you will soon be part of the community. Well, this goes for a little village of course... Be aware, many foreighners often misbehave and break traditions, greeks dont like that as they are precious to them.

Why is it so hard to make friends in Greece?
