Hi traveller greeting from Nepal 🙏🙏🙏🇳🇵
One of the world's most fabulous tourist destinations! Historically, Athens has always had a top heavy government, which allows the citizens and visitors to ignore their duties and responsibilities. The result is traffic terror. When in Athens, don't be an Athenian.. Obey ALL traffic laws. It's bad taste to add to Athen's nightmare streets. If Athen's residents and visitors ever accept their responsibilities, the world would blossom knowing Athen's streets, civil servants, communities and adults finally became law-abiding, ethical and conscientious. Imagine! I'm heading there soon…
Can you include the food prices as well lol
Keep adding closed caption into your videos. I have come to your channel just because of closed caption that Youglish showed to me.
Thank you for this video, my girlfriends and I are planning a trip and watching this video made it so much easier! Thanks again, I’m so excited.
Thanks for this video. I like your style of travel video – not too heavy on the music and drone shots but more down-to-earth. As a result of this, we booked a few days in Athens – normally I would avoid it but you said it might be a bit like Berlin and Tel Aviv – that sounded pretty cool. BTW, Audrey, are you by chance related to Joanna Rorhback who became famous for her Prancercise videos? She sounds like she could be your mother: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o-50GjySwew&t=106s
Love your videos and this one is great. I’ll be back there again in February – cannot wait.
why is she with you?
I can't wait for the day when people like you, who do these "travel vlogs", learn the proper way to say the names of places. Seriously, you're the ignorant stereotype that people mock.
This helped me get a better grip on what to expect for visiting Athens. Thank you for all of the insight!
