Tourist tips for visiting Athens by a resident
Jan 23, 2019: This Anthony Grant piece at MSN Online is a down-to-earth description by this Athens resident of acclimating to Athens (and Greece). Tips on eating authentic food and avoiding tourist-pricing, when to use the subway and when to find another method, and how to visit the islands to the best advantage (and avoiding an experience the writer describes as a "blur" from doing too much, too quickly).
The writer's reasoning for the tips are explained (there's quite a few more than what's mentioned here) and in an easy to understand way. (And this cracked me up, referring to Santorini: "...plans are afoot to triple the size of its sardine can of an airport, but absent some major volcanic activity, Santorini won’t be getting bigger any time soon.")
