When we started looking for a rental house here in Greece, we met a fantastic woman at a local artisan burger place who made an incredible offer to us—strangers—out of the kindness of her heart. When we asked her why she did this, she replied that humanity is disappearing from our society, and if she is kind to others, she believes she might receive help herself if she ever needs it.
The woman, Spiridula, with her jet-black hair and blue eyes, left us with a strange feeling. She was so different, a beautiful being with extraordinary energy. There was something indescribable about her. Otherworldly.
We had already found a small apartment for a short-term stay, but we began searching for a house with a yard for a longer-term rental. In Greece, not everything happens online. You must spread the word, make new contacts, and ask the locals. Ladokolla is a fantastic burger spot in Neos Marmaras, where everything for their burgers is handmade. Delicious and affordable, a handcrafted burger the size of a child’s head, served with homemade fries, costs just five euros.
