I like your videos. My Greek husband is deceased (2009) and I appreciate all the tips you give. My SIL lived in Greece for 6 years but stayed mainly in Thessalonia. The museum was video really great.

6:10 This is funny because I always end up getting things i didn’t think about too. Because actually jumbo is designed in a way where every step there’s a curve and a long distance to the exit so you will pass by all of their products;which will cause you to forget your original reason for going to the shop and buying things you didn’t expect you needed. Have a nice trip!!

@agirlandherpassport 2 года назад

It’s a total ploy but I am just glad I found the second floor! I did remember the reason I went though. Thanks!!

Jumbo is my fav store , and i know that they even opened many stores outside the country like in Bulgaria and Romania.

I wish there was one closer to me. It won’t be a regular things for me to go there.

Jumbo Rocks!! It’s like death by a 1000 cuts - always go for a few things and end up buying a lot more. Don’t let the pigeons get comfy….they seem to like to take up residency on the air conditioning and oh by the way jumbo sells a plastic plate with skewers and glue to deter them. Happy travels to Aegina!

@agirlandherpassport 2 года назад

I bought more than planned but all things I needed. I am not! I go out regularly to shoo them away. I al against the skewers. I think so reflective tape will work. Thanks!!

Fruits of the season are melons watermelons cheries peaches and smooth-skinned peaches which are a bit more red in Color. I suggest trying the combo of watermelon with feta cheese and after tasting it tells us your opinion.

The buildings in the city center are older and have to abide by height regulations. I think it's connected to the Acropolis height.

Yes that is the case. They can’t block anyone’s view of the Acropolis.

How easy is it to get a taxi in Athens if you're visiting? We anticipate doing a lot of walking while there and also anticipate being very tired! LOL. Love your videos!

@agirlandherpassport 2 года назад

I recommend using Uber, which calls a taxi or there is an app here that also calls a taxi, called Beat. But much of the main sightseeing areas are pretty walkable. Thank you!!

@yiannispalamas1307 2 года назад

You can buy all these thing through their e-shop... and they can send you everything via courier... which I think is free if you spend 50 euros.

@agirlandherpassport 2 года назад

I didn’t buy 50 euros worth of things. I wasn’t even planning on buying this much.

I’m a Tomato Lover / Gardener girl from the Garden State( NJ). I’m looking for Tomato Seeds unique to Greece - like Santorini tomato seeds or other varieties of Basil etc. Does Jumbo sell seeds? Or do you know of a store in Athens that sells gardening supplies, and or seeds. I’ve heard the tomatoes at the street markets are the best. I’d like to buy several packs to take home.

@agirlandherpassport 2 года назад

I don’t know where to get seeds. Jumbo did not. Leroy Merlín might but I don’t know if they are Greek.

@mariebrown9415 2 года назад

I found the Greek word for “ Garden Center” sorry I can’t type it in but 17 Leocharus Pireas - shows walls of vege seed packets on the wall. X-80 Bus goes there. or will take taxi . Staying at Athens Marriott in Sept- not too far from hotel. Will also try Leroy Merlin also it looks like our equiv of Home Depot or Lowes . I’m waiting for a response from US Dept of agriculture to make Sure they can clear customs in USA airport. Much appreciated. Looks like Jumbo is a neat store . Your videos make me feel like a local- part of my interest in a travel experience. Many thanks.
