My First 2 Weeks in Athens...


Finally, I have a day where I am not too tired to give you a little summary of the last couple weeks. I am hoping for some sun because it has been quite cold. One day the sky was rusty orange and it was raining mud! The cars and windows were covered. My brown jacket had flecks of clay all over it. It looked like the last day of the Earth's existence or something. Turns out it was just dirt from the Sahara storms. I've never seen anything like it.

I have been busy the last couple weeks with castings...There have not been that many but it still seems to take up the whole day with commuting. I had one test shoot and a job for a teen magazine - the one with the horse! :) Happy!
This is my new friend Caramello.

We had the weekends off plus another two days because of strikes / riots. I suppose this is the norm in Greece. During my time off I have made it to the Archaeological Museum,


The Acropolis,


and a photo exhibition for Ozon Magazine in a building with an amazing view of the Acropolis
.

Also, I somehow ended up going to a 50 Cent / G-Unit Concert! (hahaha if you know me, you know that this is not my usual choice in gigs, but it was fun nonetheless!)
