“This will be very unpleasant”. Well, for most of the Greeks, it likely will-they’re so indulged they’ve apparently forgotten how to work and live in a self-sufficient way-but I’m sure if the hotel and car rental prices are cheap enough, tourists will come to gawk at them, eat that primitive food, stay in accommodations built 500 years ago, etc-my husband and I did that in Mexico and Guatemala quite a few times as our vacation.. .

I don’t see why they would have a problem with burning wood and using herbal infusions-we do that in rural areas now/still-olives are delicious, and so is cabrito roasted on a grill or open pit-yum...

Hmm...primitive food is by definition easy to prepare. I enjoy cooking Greek & now have another reason to like it.

As for going there, “why should I travel when I’m already here?”

Many people there are dependent on imported medicines, such as diabetics and cancer patients. Without these supplies, there will be a humanitarian catastrophe.
