Summer 2024 Participant
Don't take anything for granted. It may be overwhelming at some points, but don't allow that to stop you from enjoying the experience.

Summer 2025 Participant
Learn from my mistakes and learn some Greek before you go to Greece. English may be widely spoken and understood, but in the less touristy areas it is very likely you will find shopkeepers that do not speak English and/or the products in their stores may be printed entirely in Greek. Download the Google Translate app and download the Greek language to use it offline.

Summer 2025 Participant
I really enjoyed getting to try different Greek foods and live in a place with different cultural norms than mine. I like how dining is a relaxed experience and it is common to go on walks by the sea after work. In addition, the craftsmanship of many of the vendors' wares in the shopping districts was incredible, I don't often see work produced with that level of expertise in the United States.
