Umberto Eco once said that there are no news in August, referring to and describing obviously the situation in Italy.
Well, there's not much difference in Greece, considering the similarity of the Mediterranean climate, the heat of the
month and the fact that August is the peak of the holiday season for the Greeks.
There's not much really going on at the moment. Everything feels stagnant, motionless, repetitive. It gives me the
impression of that cold long, snowy winters in Berlin, right at that very moment when you've lost all hope that spring
will come eventually and the sun will finally warm up the air the the ground.
Sometimes summer in Athens feels like winter in Berlin...
Sometimes it's hot outside, but the heart hibernates...
