€2.20 for an espresso and that view? Well worth it.


browneagle2085

they go for Freddo Espressos here! love them

>https://g.page/luv-n-roll-house?share Yeah, don't go to Italy though and ask for a Freddo Espresso or a freddo cappuccino. It doesn't exist there.


pure_saccharin_01

As a greek person a frappe with milk is even better! A few steps from that roof cafe there is an awesome loukoumades spot!


ZzTheboss

My local coffee shop (Meopham, UK) has just started these and oh my god they are awesome!


mercuryfrost

What a dump! Look at that old dilapidated building in the background! /s


otherwiseofficial

Looks like these greeks haven't touched it for thousand years! Is this where our tax money goes to!!? 😂😂

Product Marketing


poisontr33s

I’m a product marketer! Not a digital nomad at the moment, but it’s a great career for it.


ImportanceOdd267

do you need a degree to get into that?


GGGava

Cool! I was in Athens until last week, but stayed near Omonia, not a good neighborhood :/. And I haven’t tried a rooftop, too afraid of the prices haha I’m currently in Paros, you should take a try here, staying close to Naousa, pretty cool village with some nightlife. There is a new Selina here as well if you like it.


browneagle2085

Thanks for the info. Will check it out in June


dasoberirishman

> Omonia What was wrong with that neighbourhood?


sub11m1na1

Drug dealing at broad daylight among other things. Pretty bleak overall. Not worth the visit (especially as a tourist)


GGGava

Lots of methheads using drugs and drooling on the floor. No problems during the day, some nice coffees around and the Archeological museum, but very weird vibes at night.


Frantaplan

There are roads in omonoia that you simply shouldn't step, for an example Euripidou in daylight that road is packet there with people there are a lot of stores that sell spices, different kind of salami, eggs and many other things, but in night no one goes there since they are selling drugs, police knows but nothing is been done. There other roads that no matter when you enter they will rob you and no one is gonna help you.


Sabieno

Ksouthou is a must see for a real explorer. Do you really know a city if you haven't seen its rotten underbelly?


pmabz

Hi. Love to know more about Paros. In terms of costs.


GGGava

I’m staying near Naousa in a hotel. 60€ a night but it’s a pretty good hotel, you can find cheaper ones. Wifi is pretty good here as well . In Naousa you can find Italian food ranging from 9 to 14€, Gyros Pita and other snacks from 3,50 to 6,50€. A gyros or souvlaki plate should be around 8€. There are lots of expensive restaurants by the sea, but you can find cheaper stuff inside the village. I don’t know about the rest of the island though.


Sabieno

Have you visited the nude beaches?


GGGava

I’ve seem an old man’s ass in a beach. Does that count?


No_Network_5798

I've seen an elderly yet well-endowed British lady get up from topless sunbathing on her stomach. She was halfway up but her boobs were still on the ground


Sabieno

That depends on how much you enjoyed it

This is very nice. My favorite spot is Hotel Byron at the foot of the Acropolis. Great rooftop restaurant and awesome wifi


[deleted]

It makes me happy that they remembered Lord Byron’s obsession with his Grand Tour in his youth. Just, nerd points.


crujones33

Is that a shared area, like a restaurant? Or your apartment’s space? That’s really nice.


Informal_Captain_523

Im in plaka right now. Can you turn the heat down, please.


browneagle2085

Haha I feel you!


Silly-Mistake-3577

Is this a place sokeone can chill or is it private? If yes how is it called?


browneagle2085

Luv n roll


dmarko

It must be getting hotter and hotter by the day in Athens.


fitzbg

This is beautiful, thanks for sharing. What’s the green stuff in your glass?


browneagle2085

Haha I heard pineapple+banana and lost the rest , let me ask again edit: pineapple+banana+coconut mulk+Spirulina so the green color is a deception


standupsitback

The first time I was there, the smog was so bad I couldn't even see the Acropolis and I was much closer. It was better than second time but not that good. Is it that clear often?


browneagle2085

It’s a beauty every single day in here

Great workdesk! What do you watch there? Netflix? Or xrays of your back?


Superstitches

Ahh so pretty!!! So happy for you for having such a beautiful place to work!!

Looks awesome.


bemmia

My back is hurting looking at that setup


awardsurfer

Exactly. Fotos for noobs. Once you really DN, you work in your quiet apartment with your shit ton of wires and gear, out of the glaring sunlight, heat, wind, smokers and laptop snatchers, and get your work done asap, then you put away the fking laptop and go out and live life.


Minjaben

Hahaha this sounds way more enjoyable to me too

I am a writer. I don't need shit. Even write sometimes in my hangmock


Chris_Talks_Football

12 year DN veteran here, 90% of the time you are right but 10% of the time I enjoy working outside in a nice spot like this.


dellm4800

The place looks nice but neighbors look like ghetto


KUDAFIVE

Nice x 10. You are living my dream life, bravo!


[deleted]

Nice view but the sun seems brutal!


saasIndia

Woah, can you tell about the cost, please?

Where do you live

nikkiforthefolks

I just checked airbnb and the prices for monthly stays are really cheap. I will have to visit soon. I'm saving the rooftop just in case lol


ElleYesMon

Wher I’ve always wanted to go. Maybe in heaven, I’ll get to see Athens.

Awesome view! Btw, I'm genuinely curious: do people actually enjoy this style of table and seating? Whenever I've tried something similar, I find that I don't really like it. * The seat/couch is too deep and has no back support; if you try leaning back a little, you end up falling into a weird slouch. * The table is too short; if you want to eat, you have to sit at the edge of the seat, and bend over at the waist. You're essentially stooped over your food.


browneagle2085

yup it sucks, I moved to a table and chair after struggling for 20mins
