A Journey Into the Past: Greece
The people have many reasons to travel to another country. Someones do for fun, and other ones to rest. In my case, I like to travel for the knowledge and to see different things. So, what another better place to travel than the origin of the modern civilization. Yes, I would like to travel to Greece.
The greek culture has a strong bond with our occidental culture. It's present in the language. in the politic, in the society and even in the entertainment. For example, If you are a videogames player, you have "God of War", if you are a cinephile, you have "300", if you like books, you have "The Iliad and "The Odyssey". All of those examples makes me more excited to breath and inmerse myself into this place. It's amazing how a culture that has a thousands of years still presents till today.
My grandmother on my mother's side is greek, and she always says to me how beautiful and interesting place it is Greece when I ask about it. If I went there, I would go to Athens first, to see the ancient theatres, the acropolis, the shrines, the temples, the statues, the museums and all the buildings with that unique architecture. After, I would like to go to Crete, the place where my grandmother comes from, to make ensure that their views and spots deserves the compliments of her.
However, if I would have the money to travel, I just plan to stay there a couple of weeks, because I would end getting bored. I also want to discover other cultures and other weirds and exotics places. This is the reason why I want to develop emotions, not feelings.
I agree with you, it would be very amazing to visit the origins of civilization we know today, I have read those books that you mention and it sounds exciting to stan in the land that the histories occurs. Definitely a country I would visit someday.
