    Err, that's the Greek alphabet you know, right?
    Fun fact: The transliteration of the name into the Latin alphabet is Gregorys, and it is a popular bakery chain in Greece.

    I love Athens. This was a great take on the city. I like that you went to the heart of the city and saw how the city actually functions. Hint: there's a little more to Athens then the Acropolis (thank you for showing that). I'm not insulting a 2,000 year old building.....that would be rude but good to see the hidden parts of town. Plus loved that cat at 9:45....he/she was magical.

    Spectacular!!! Bravo... bravo!! More, please? So much to see and do. You should get the black licorice, it is healing for the stomach but don't eat too much (way less than 2oz a day, under 2wks), it can cause arrhythmia; it should be in everybody's pantry. :)

      Well, we’re really lucky to speak English, the most widespread language in the world, so most people seem to know the very basic words. And then a lot of people speak it really well. I wonder how hard it is for other people to travel who don’t speak much English

    guys don't eat gyros under any circumstances. especially if the piece of meat from where they cut slices is massive. there are no fridges which can preserve it. they add small doses with syringes of the chemical which is used to keep bodies intact in morgues. i am not talking for the particular restaurant by the way.

    • @γαμώθεος

      @Chrai0n 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yes it's true! And the meat is not even chicken or pork! It's rat and cat meat, sometimes human meat too from those who die from the heat outside. The tzatziki sauce is made of Greek yogurt and the saliva of grannies. Pita bread is made of flour and grinded toenails.
      Okay so, now that we all talked shit and got jealous about gyros, let the hate dance commence!
