My five days in Thessaloniki between a Monday and a Friday were just enough to get acclimatized, run errands and re-connect with family and close friends. On Saturday I spent the morning cleaning up the apartment and packing before I had lentil soup for lunch at my aunt’s. After hugging her goodbye I took a bus downtown to meet up with a friend. Before hopping into the car to drive to. And fries from the local ta...

Clockwise, otherwise and likewise. July 6, 2015. Finally summer is here; as the heat takes over, life is conjugated in the present tense and I experience joy tinged with melancholy; somehow the sun almighty, pinned to the same position on the sky for hours and hours, reminds me of the. Unbearable lightness of being. 8211; such is my. What can I do? The landscape is turning voluptuously green including the unsolicited plants that are rampantly taking over my vegetable beds, calling for immediate weeding.
