Hi, my name is Grant Cassell and I was wondering if you would be able to answer a few questions I had about Greek culture. For starters, what is Greek culture like for you in general? If you have ever spent any extensive time outside of Greece, how is it different from Greece itself? What is your favorite aspect of Greek culture? Thank you.
