Hello!
Feels a little bit odd to be advertising to meet people but then I have never moved to a non english speaking country all by itty bitty self before. I am going to be moving to Athens on the 23rd Sept and although I start work pretty much straight away would love to meet other fun people living/working in Athens as I am going to be here for a year at least and def need some pointers on the Greek way of life and probably someone to show me where the best bars are on the odd occasion ;)
Message me if my apparent desperation hasn't yet freaked you the hell out ;)
Cheers, Kat

Hello!
i moved here last month from Israel..this place is really nice, but i guess it depends on which part of athens you are living in.

Hi!

I've just moved to Athens from London too for work (literally on sunday) and its a little bit daunting knowing no one and speaking about one word of greek! I'd be keen to meet up and do a bit of exploring of athens. Definitely want to discover some good bars and drink some vino to de-stress from an office where I have not a clue what anyone is saying and not much more clue what I'm meant to be doing!
Message me if you fancy meeting up,

Hello guys...how do you like Athens already?

i can recommend you Gazi area for some good bars...you get off at metro station (Kerameikos-Blue line 3) and the bars are all around you. If you go Saturday night will be so crowded...Have a good stay in Athens all..:)

Holl

Think i've managed to add both of you on fb- lets make plans! I'm living down south but happy to meet wherever. I get off work from about 5.30 ish so any time after that is fab with me! x

Hi,

I've lived in Athens for a month now, and would be great to meet new people and make some more friends! I work from 3 pm to 11 pm, but let me know if any of you would be interested in having coffee one day before work, or drinks after I finish!

Hope to see you soon,

Janita

Hey Janita,

Would defintely be interested in having drinks one night soon! I start work at 8.30 so best to meet at night. I have Tuesday Wednesday off this week so Monday or Tuesday night? Haha not the best night for having drinks I know. What area of Athens do you
live in?
Kat

Janttu

Hi Kat,

Yeah Monday night is probably not the best night for drinks, but I'm in! Either night is good with me, whatever suits you best. I'm right in the center, in Thissio area. What area do you live in? See ya!
