As I said the other day I went to see my grandmother in the north of Athens, and then went shopping with my mother in the centre. (I say shopping, but we were just looking for one thing.)
[clickity click for photos] So yeah the other day I went up to the north of Athens to see my grandmother and aunt. This is a well known glass office block near her house.
Then I went to Athens to meet my mother, she was going to buy me a new pair of glasses for christmas. Exciting! The glasses I have now are dark mauve and elongated, my new ones will be a sort of transparentish dark blue in the classic Ray Ban style.
The Academy building in the centre.
An old neoclassical building in the centre that was burnt during the riots/fights with the police several years ago and still hasn't been redone. It's really sad, one of the centre's best and oldest cinemas was in that building has been closed ever since.
We have the best graffiti in Athens. I might be biased, but most of the best street artists here are not just taggers, but the have a characteristic style. And they don't all work with spray paints, some use paints or collage too.
