Additional information
"Hi everyone, I moved here a year ago and looking to get involved once again with a group of energetic individuals to have some fun organizing events related to greek culture. I'd like to get a dancing group started again so don't be shy to sign:)"
Title
None yet.
Introduction
Hi everyone, I was born in Greece, family is from Kefalonia, and I grew up in MI. Work in biomedical research field at HMS and have been involved in Greek dancing for most of my life as instructor and performer. I also enjoy playing the bouzouki.
3 things you can't live without?

family, friends, my sanity

Favorit greek desert/pastry?

hmm I'd have to say a good rice pudding with Lots of cinnamon:)

Have you every tried Saganaki?

Of course. I even make it at home.

Have you visited Greece? Is so what was your most memorable experience.

I have family there so I've visited many time growing up. I have spent most of most of my time in Kefalonia and Chios to visit family but recently visited Mykonos and Zakynthos. I've been to Crete, Thessaloniki as well.

What interests you in the group/what do you hope to get out of it.

I started this group to get people together who have common interest in learning about the culture and to meet new people and make new friends. I hope to get involved in Greek dance instruction again and teach others.

  •  Yia Sou Dionysis, thank you for posting a greeting. I may have misunderstood some of the questions. I am actually excited to meet other Greek folks to chat and converse in Greek, as I speak Greek fluently. And, yes I have been to a few Greek festivals. I am about an hour from Boston, but that would not keep me from attending the groups events. I go to Greece every couple of years. My family is from the island of Rhodes. Is anyone in the group from Rhodes ? .... Again thank you, keep me posted.

  •  Thanks for such a warm greeting, Dionysis! I found this group by chance when I was checking out the listing of local MeetUp events. Looking forward to getting to know everyone and learning more about all things Greek in and around the area.

  •  I was planning to attend the Cambridge Festival after my dance rehearsal at the Lykeion which is exactly a block from the church. There is also a decently priced parking garage (I usually pay $2-$3 when I come for the 2hour dance rehearsal) a block from the church (Green Street) for those coming with a car. There is also a bus stop and T-location (don't know though what area they serve) a block away from the festival. Just wanted to let you know. :)
