People from Greece and the UK tend to understand each other. Great video, mate!

Thanks Gio, I agree. I lived in Corfu for 3 years when I was younger and have a great affection for the Greeks. I come back as often as possible and it still feels like home.

Thank you for your kindness Mark. In these days, very few understand the spirit of Greece. You are one of them. You are one of us :) Greetings to the UK and I hope both our countries find their way in the future!

From archaic to anarhic.. We are not proud to have anarchy in our country.. But nice graffiti ..

Its more the reflection of the way artwork appears, than the way people act. Thanks Jim.
