It's is extremely different for me to choose "my" moment in Greece specifically but as i have been sitting around extremely sick for the past day I have come to the conclusion that my moment in Greece was in Rhodes.
When we arrived in Rhodes I knew that I would fall in love with the city immediately. When we arrived at our hotel and I saw the Aegean Ocean just 5 short steps in front of me I was mesmerized. As our five days went on I became very close friends with our waiters at the hotel, Ernest and Ilias. They joked with me and made me happy every morning that I went to breakfast! Also as i previously mentioned in one of my other blogs, I became i guess you could say family with Paulo and Pina two of the cutest Italian people i will ever know. I ate pizza at their shop everyday and enjoyed breaking yet another language barrier with them! The last person I met I knew actually got his name but we call him Kodak Man. We met him while printing a picture at his store and in the end he taught me to see the good in all people.
My moment in Greece was my last day in Rhodes. We went around Rhodes giving the waiters, Paulo and Pina and Kodak man our gifs. I have never felt so sad leaving a place where i had begun to feel at home. But in the end when i look my last walk on the beach, through my tears, I was greeted with a feeling of warmth. I knew that someday I would be back to see these people, and that these were friends that I would never ever forget. They have left permanent foot prints on my soul.
S'agapo,
Alex
