We had the most wonderful time in the flat of Nora and her mother, Anastasia. They were very welcoming, as was the flat we rented. Filled with the sensitive paintings of Anastasia, and situated at a few steps of the natural park Lofos Strefi, this place is a true oasis for writers or artists that like to spend some time downtown Athens. The Exarchia neighbourhood is safe, filled with cafés and restaurants, has an open air cinema and some secondhand clothing shops close by. The garden at the back of the house is a great feat with a fig tree (July) and pomegranate (late August). We're hope to come back in the near future!
