Never a city surprised me. Not for good. Athens is a huge city that represents just that to which he usually does not Europe. In our political continent (it is clear that when we speak of European political union because the real Europe is going beyond) the ugly and debased hides and comes out. Athens displays it. I had heard of drug addicts and beggars Greek but never suspected that the thing was so serious. Around Omonia Square in the center, a distance of one hundred meters, you find yourself with twenty street vendors (selling homemade real relics), ten homeless, ten drug addicts placed (some falling off in the corners, some jerks sleeping epileptic, some giving rattling with needles still hanging from his arms), in addition to representatives of all ethnicities and colors, preferably black and Arab, in a dangerous and dubious spending time with nothing to do. At every turn, controlling the tremendous spectacle, a police car is stopped, the agents clearly visible walking up and down. The rest of the scenario is easily imaginable: dirt without limitation, shouting, some unexpected persecution, crowded kiosks selling everything, air conditioners leaking area over the heads of passersby crowded stores, many of them with spices, do you believe that you are in a Muslim country. What is really surprising is that this occurs in the heart of Athens. The spectacle of extreme poverty and dangerous, beyond the social meditations may be, basically gives me tremendous appetite away. I feel very unsafe in this environment, probably because I'm not used to. This does not mean that it is insensitive to the suffering of these people, nor that I do not question this unjust world, giver of inequality and suffering atrocious. Anyone who knows me knows that I question not only me but it hurts me greatly that victims are always the same, who is known in aberrant expression as cannon fodder. But that evidence does not make me lose sight of the danger in such an environment can be found. And to those who call me or bourgeois class by being honest and recognize this, I can only prove them right and tell them to go for a walk in the streets, which for my walks I prefer others. Does this mean that I did not like Athens? No, not exactly. I was surprised offender and suburban poverty in the heart (the other poverty, I come from, does not scare me or surprise me), insecurity, remoteness from European standards. It made me think of the Greek crisis, real, true, absolutely true. Athens is very nice corners, and do not talk about the tour, of course, rather scared me for other reasons. Athens also has thousands of sensations in every stone and it shows. That indolence and misery Athenians give a thorough account the stray dogs that populate the streets. I never saw so many. Not collected? Kennels are not carried as here? (Where indeed, in Catalunya at least, not slaughtered, of which I am very happy.) The stray dogs in Athens are dirty dogs, each with its collar. Do not go near: the heat stuns them, sleep in the middle of the street, in the corners. Remain as a symbol of a ruined city which cost you up.Nevertheless, it is worth Athens. Walking around Plaka and Monastiraki, the Acropolis and discover the forum, marvel at the Archaeological Museum, climb Mount Lycabettus, imagine the Olympics at the Olympic Stadium, visit nearby places such as Delphi, Mycenae, Corinth Canal, Epidaurus. Around and after every corner, waiting sleeping spirit of Diogenes Laertius. (The cynics of the title are not the poor or drug addicts, neither the police nor the tourists like me who look at everything with vivid scruples. I used a strictly cynical etymology.). 1-I can not think of logistic conditions suitable for carrying out the evacuation will not be available within 24 hours. The safest options .. ..
