Impressions of a ' Bloody Tourist'
First of two talks by Richard Keen
Four-and-a-half million tourists were exnected in Greece last year, and for three months Richard Keen and his wife were two of them. Can the Greek way of life survive the impact of tourists and their money? Should it? If you were a Greek peasant, would you rather go to work by donkey or by truck? Is it important to be able to dance with two tables in your teeth?
