In the old Omonoia subway station the future is now and it’s pale blue.
Periptero in the night
Greek version of the convenience store: the periptero. Here, a specimen of the glitz downtown persuasion.
Windows to the winter sun
Athens X-market
Nativity, “Basil cakes”, piles of Christmas sweets,
sponges and spices in the old downtown,
cured meat, neoclassical buildings, end-of-year shopping in the sun.
Warm inside
How about a Greek snack break…
…with the quintessential street food to choose from…
…spinach pie, the odd pizza, sausage roll, and -drum roll- eight kinds of cheese pie!
Bleeding buildings
Childhood tv memories spilling out on the walls.
