My occupation with journalism and politics brings me to question everything. It brings me to search behind words, faces, and situations. It makes me play with strategy, differentiate between the "political line" and the "idealogical shade," and, call into question whether to elevate or downgrade a situation.

Religious Tourism in Greece
By: Yanna Darilis

Greece was one of the first cradles of Christianity and the prevailing religion in Greece is the Orthodox Christian faith. As part of the Byzantine Empire, Greece established Christianity as the country's official religion in 380 AD. It is closely tied to the nation's identity due to the large contribution in the preservation of the Greek language, literature and arts during the Ottoman Empire. This resulted to a very rich religious tradition, with an impressive variety of local customs in major celebrations that add even more spirituality, mystery and meaning.
