    Remember: we have invented the Olympic Games. There, only the FIRST was considered a winner (no 2nd or 3rd places existed). Being the FIRST, the BEST, is embedded in our DNA. Yes, it can lead to big egos as well (even the gods/goddesses) had positive and negative sides-they served as models for human development.

    The big private hospitals in kifissias avenue are meant for wealthy people who can afford huge bills. We hear these names whenever a politician is hospitalised or a celebrity has a baby. If you are working or middle class you go to a public general hospital or maternity hospital. They are not so beautiful looking, and the service is much slower, but the actual medical services and staff are equal to or better than private hospitals. So if you are a foreigner living in Greece and you're not wealthy avoid private hospitals.

    All these cases are interesting but nobody talked about the right of residence. Julian's Mother is Greek,vso she has the right to obtain Greek nationality. Nicoletta is Italian so she has the right as an EU citizen. Aimée is presumably no longer on a student visa, coming from Mexico she is not automatically qualifying but she mentions her husband who perhaps is Greek or from another country in the Schengen zone. Olivia does not mention her country of origin, the name does not give much away, her accent is Eastern European and there is no other information about her right to live in Greece. I am not an EU or Schengen Zone passport holder. As I see it, the difficulties for people like me if I wanted to apply for residency are considerable unless you have €1 million Euros to invest

    It's very true that Greek Diaspora is enormous and sometimes more infuential abroad... take for example Katsimatides the New York Supermarket Owner and main contributor to Trump's campaign.... Greeks also control the left wing media in the US, ABC news is practically run by George Stefanopoulos %so many actors in Hollywood movies ... And noone can really appreciate the influence of Greek Shipowners effectively controling all the trade from Asia to Europe or from the US to Europe....

    I am Greek and I really appreciate it when foreign people comment on the social/economic problems of the country. I am a traveler myself but I really wonder if I can identify as an expat or an immigrant by this point. It's really shitty to need to leave your country because it's not livable for you anymore. Tourism has been a huge problem for Greece mainly because the gtp mainly depends on it and it's really heartbreaking to lose hope in your country when others see an investment. That's why I really appreciate people that make an effort to understand the culture good and bad!

      greeks loooove foreigners as they did in ancient times. They learned from them, they traded, they made friendships and so many more things. The thing that happened in Greece is the large quantities of people pouring in, making the place a hell on earth for those poor souls, and for Greeks too. The governments took money, to accept all those people without checking anything about them.

    What I like about Toronto and North America in general is that people from all over the world are making it happen. When I lived there I experienced goodness and generosity I have never seen in Greece. In Greece the sea, the weather and the food may be great, but I would be careful with the people. The fact that they are obsessed with DNA says it all. Once you leave the expat bubble, you are going to learn a lot.

Toronto is a cold aloof place for newcomers. It takes time and effort but once you find your community it can be a rich environment. I can go on and on. I can also go on and on about Greece where I've been visiting for close to 20 years. We are deeply connected to the village community in Greece. It's our second home.
