Coming into Greece I did not know much about the culture or the country overall. Since the first day here until now, it has been an amazing and eye-opening experience. Through the first day in Athens, we saw a lot of flats and no houses. A lot of people from Greece want to live in Athens and it was easy to get an apartment a couple years ago. In one of the wealthier areas we drive through, a couple years ago people could buy an apartment for 3,000-4,000 euros per square foot.

The parking and driving in Greece is so different compared to the U.S. People park anywhere they want and motorcycles on the road drive how they want. Motorcycles drive by cars and through a bunch of traffic, weaving in and out of cars and buses. You definitely have to be more cautious on the streets of Greece!
