so I was flicking through Harpers & Queen and who do I see featured? Athena Andreadi and her dad. Part of an extended coverage of Greece as a holiday destination this summer. Hey, I think we should start talking to magazines. ;-)

Yes, Greece is bound to be in the limelight this year, non? We can now expect to add to the following hilarious gallimaufry of newspaper headlines relating to Greece’s football success: “Acropolis now!” “Plato-smashing night” “Football coming Homer” “Feta compli” “All Greek to them” “Greece lightning” “A nice little urner” “Hellas freezes over” Har.

hey. I hear you are in Athens. remember, if you ever need anything, you can always knock on the door at Deligianni + Amalias, off kifissias! My home. have fun in the sun :D

nothing to do with greece, but you’ll be happy to hear that there’s another zhang ziyi movie out. called House of Flying Daggers.

My wife will also be in Wong Kar Wei’s new film ‘2046′

I have to mention at this time, that, at least in Chrouching Tiger, I found Michelle Yeoh more attractive that Zhang Ziyi.
