Things I will miss about Greece



I will miss the people and the importance of connection.
On the crowded metro.

This says "idiotikos xoros" which means private place.  The word for private is "idiotikos."  Only idiots need privacy.

I will miss the care for others.
Funeral stele depicting a farewell gesture between father and son.

I will miss the emphasis on deepening relationships.
Eurydice and me from 1990.

I will miss the landscape.

View from Delphi

I will miss the closeness of nature, even  in the city.


I will miss the stolen beauty out of the ugly.

Empty lots are turned into grotto-like restaurants. This one has a retractable roof.
Flowers make the non-descript buildings beautiful.
