The Lakia Agora
Farmer's Market! That's what we get to experience every Monday right around the corner from our dorms. Tons of people lined up, selling fresh fruit and veggies, fish that were just swimming around a few hours before, even clothes. And all of it is so ridiculously cheap.
Since market hours are different here, I decided to capitalize on the opportunity to buy the freshest fruit available in Greece and took a nice morning stroll through the farmer's market. I ended up buying bushels of the best strawberries I've ever had, kiwi, bananas and, I regret to admit, peaches because I just really wanted to try them despite the fact that I'm allergic (let me just say that did not go well).
I don't even know how to describe how amazing this fruit was. As fresh as could be, not overrun with pesticides, tasty and juicy. After all was said and done, I only ended up spending 6,40 € (about $8) on everything. Fresh Greek fruit for cheap? Doesn't get much better than that! I can't wait until the Lakia Agora is back next Monday!
