A life full of flavor is a life well live. A variety of flavors can be obtained through experiencing new cultures. Through my time spend in Greece I have not only expanded my palette but new experiences have added spice to my life, which in turn affects the whole dish.
I have experience the food aspect of Greece, which is a great avenue for immersion into the culture, but there are other ways to experience culture besides food.
One aspect I especially like about this trip is that we are not just experiencing Athens, but we visit completely different parts of Greece as well. Corfu was one of my favorite trips so far because it was such a beautiful place that was full of diverse history. Corfu is influenced by both Greek and Venetian culture, which gives it a unique twist from the city of Athens.
I have never seen water so blue in my entire life. Our trip to Corfu was yesterday but I still cannot get over how blue the water was. It was absolutely majestic. Seeing such beauty like that really puts things into perspective. God made such a beautiful world for us that we should enjoy and appreciate it. Not only is Greece a unique place to visit because of the different culture and people, but also because the sights that I have seen here are so different from what I have seen in Washington. The new experiences I have in Greece will forever change my perspective and help me understand this complex world a little better by appreciating different cultures and different places.
