hi hitch

there is lots to do in athens

most shops downtown are open monday to friday 9-9pm

buy a simcard from greece, cosmote is cheapest and best coverage but vodafone has best data plan i find

lots of cool restaurants in gazi, psirri, exarcheia, kolonaki and too many great new bars to mention

make sure you see the sights on your days off

have fun
