    In 1980 my friends and I had finished our nurse training, we worked for 6 months and then we went to the Greek islands for 3 months, we slept on the beach or rented rooms, we ate in small tavernas got bread from the village bakeries every morning it was the best time of my life

      Went for only 3 weeks at a time every year in the 1970’s and 1980’s, plus several times in the 90’s and did the same as you did. It was bliss. I’ve never been happier anywhere. We paid our way, left no litter, were respectful…and the people were wonderful. The food, was superb. Then many tourists came, wanting burgers, chips, nightclubs, sunshine, lots of alcohol, as if they were at home !
      I visited Corfu often, Paxos, Crete several times, Rhodes, Samos, Skiathos, Meteora, Athens, Kos, Santorini, Ios and so on.

      The Greek diet is mainly vegetarian.Meat dishes used to be once a week and fish too. Traditionally we don't consume anything coming from meat every Wednesday and Friday during the whole year. Also we fast about 40 days in Easter and the most hardcore people fast at Christmas too.

    I admire Greek food.. I am half Greek and Romanian , but growing up my father never knew he was Greek we did an ansetor dna stuff and came back mostly Greek , Romanian and other stuff. It sucks because we only mainly make Romanian food but we never make Greek food but I wanna try so bad everything looks so delicious God bless ❤

      @@K1k1Ktina I think maybe NYC probably has a lot more authentic foreign foods than other cities do,depending on the food,I know that CA has the biggest population of Vietnamese,so I would expect the Vietnamese food to be more authentic there than in NY.i live in the most ethnically diverse place in the US,and I believe you can get authentic foods here,not in the big name restaurants,but the little hole in the wall spots the locals eat at.Being in the restaurant business I have worked with lots of Mexicans,mainly from Puebla,and I know they had plenty of authentic Mexican street carts,and restaurants,same goes for Chinese in our 2 Chinatowns,most Americans wouldn’t eat about 85% of the food sold there as it authentically Chinese.
