Last night Mary and I went around one of our neighbours’ homes for the evening. It became a night of sharing Christmas food delicacies and through broken Greek & English stories of the past. As the night grew a few of our other neighbours joined in as well as our host’s mother aged 96 years!
If only I had the ability to communicate better in her language to hear more of the stories of her long since departed partisan husband and her life in Greek through the years she had lived. We were honoured and shown some very old photos of the brave partisan coveted by our senior citizen.
