    I just stumbled upon your blog this morning and found this post and got SO excited for you, haha. I actually just got back from studying abroad in Greece for a month in August/September. You're going to so fall in love. Myceane is hot hot hot, Epidauros' theatre is the most surreal thing you'll ever sit in, the Corinth Canal is beautiful, and Delphi and the little town you'll drive through beforehand is stunning. Go to the Acropolis as much as you can, and be sure to get there at 8am, before the tourists. Every time you go, it will take your breath away. also, please eat a gyro for me (they come with french fries INSIDE of them. what!), and make it to your local Friday Farmer's Market!

    Also, forewarning Greek men (at least the ones in Athens) are VERY upfront about staring at women. Most will be the ones standing outside the restaurants, trying to get you to come in. Ignoring does NOT work. However, saying 'No thank you.' in Greek (pronounced oh-he, ef-care-ih-stow - no, thank you) let's them know you're serious and will get them to leave you alone :)

    goodness, you're going to LOVE Greece :)
