Traveling the world is an enjoyable way of connecting with people and understand different cultures and different languages. During our discoveries (travels), we relish talking with folks about their lifestyle and daily tasks, love tasting the local cuisine and treasure taking pictures/videos of our journey.

LingoHut had the opportunity to visit Greece (Ελλάδα) in May 2016. Greece with a population of 10.8 million found in southeast Europe comprised of 6,000 islands in total, with 227 of them occupied scattered in the Aegean and Ionian Seas. On this adventure, we explored Athens, Santorini, and Mykonos. Each with its terrain and lifestyle.
Greece is a place with friendly people enthusiastic about making your vacation enjoyable and memorable. A substantial percentage of Greece’s national income comes from tourism. Tourism funds 16% of the gross domestic products. They love to see you visit their island.
An excellent way to open the lines of communication with the people and show them respect is by learning a little Greek.
