    Bravo!
    Thoughtful, researched, entertaining. Beautiful work and beautifully produced. The perfect listen before a trip to Greece or to visit virtually. I listened to each episode 3x, learning and getting inspired.

    Love this!
    I am so enjoying this series and the previous one—We’ll Always Have Athens. I only wish there were links included in the show notes for the fascinating places, people and food mentioned.

    Hooked from the first episode!
    As a Greek American who has been visiting Athens my whole life, I am enchanted by this intelligent, passionate, and insightful introduction to Athens. I can’t wait to hear upcoming episodes and learn more about some of the quirkier or lesser-known aspects of this beautiful city and its history.

    A fun way to learn about Athens
    Athens is one of my favorite cities in the world. I love walking and discovering new places but on the other hand, I realized there are so many things I don’t know about it. This podcast is so great as it explains lots of things about its history, its hidden treasures. British author Sofja Zinovieff who lives in Athens, is the one showing you the way and she does a great job. If you don’t know her but love Greece read one of her great novels like Eurydice street or The house on Paradise street.

    Vivid and inspiring.
    Stumbled upon this and love it! Maybe more than just 8 episodes? A regular podcast about Athens would be terrific.
