Discover Athens like an insider, learn about its history and its treasures, and appreciate the creative dynamic of this city's imperfections. The Athenian Experience takes you on this walk, shows you the city, and reveals its neighbourhoods and its people. This Summer/ Autumn / Winter try something different and decide for yourself, live away from the tourist trail, use your money wisely and by doing so you help local people and businesses. There are fantastic markets held in local streets where you can buy fruit, vegetables, fish, cheese,wine, honey –all from local suppliers. There are wonderful bakeries on every street selling fresh bread, pastries, biscuits and cakes. Within walking distance there are many bars, cafes and restaurants to choose from. Walk to the sea, have a coffee or a cocktail, relax, go swimming (the local beaches are clean) or go up and walk in the mountains above the city. Think for yourself in a positive way – you don’t need a tourist office to tell you where to go and what to do. Of course visit the city centre (easy to get to by tram or bus) and all its classic sites but also explore the side streets, quirky bars, cafés and independent shops. There are buses trams and loads of taxis. You are near the Port of Pireas so you can go even for a day trip to a close by island. My Sister Georgia can offer to drive you to places for a small fee (much cheaper than taxis )
I am trying to set up the Athenian Experience from my flat in Athens. I am looking for people that want to go there and test drive the flat and the house. I am in the process to set up a small apartment and my flat as well as two roof terraces and a gym. All fully air con and fast WiFi. This is a work in progress and your presence and feedback will be appreciated and prices are low for that reason. This project will run until the end of the year 2013
Also if people want to go there and do some work can be cheaper or even free. There are many things that someone can do to help, from the basic cleaning, decorating and gardening and designing the interior or exterior of the house to even setting up an interactive full on website with images and content I will provide or plastering the exterior walls.
