I was just there. Felt fine except for a particular student neighborhood in Athens where I hid my Magen David necklace. Lots of Palestinian flags and โriver to seaโ graffiti and posters.

We are a small family with small children from Israel. Due to the ongoing war in the country, we are moving temporarily to Greece where our children will be safe.
