| I've always been a huge fan of ancient Greek history and mythology. The humanity of their gods and the passion with which they are portrayed always had a resonance for me. Visiting Greece for the first time in 1988 while backpacking around Europe was an amazing experience for me as I wandered through the ruins of places like Delphi, Olympia, Delos and others. Places that changed the course of history, of the life that I and the rest of us live today. I returned in 2003, this time with a gang of my closest friends. Even though there were a lot more tourists, it still hadn't lost its charm.
I have more pictures on ShoeBox.
