More and more young people in Greece are making the big decision to leave their country, their families and friends behind, in search of a better life abroad. A “better life” that, as it turns out, is often limited only to the financial dimension. Because the money may be more, the professional opportunities broader, but the quality of life, the peace of mind and the warmth of the homeland are rarely replaced.
In the video we present, expatriate Christos Chouyazos recounts the odyssey of a young man who leaves for something “better.” He describes the struggle, the adaptation, the difficulties, but also the deep longing for Greece. Because no matter how successful someone is professionally in a foreign country, their heart always beats in their homeland, where their roots and memories lie.
Congratulations to all these children who struggle, who are tested and who manage to stand tall in foreign places. Their struggle proves the strength of soul and mind that the Greek carries wherever he finds himself.
So, let's enjoy Greek-American Christos Chouyazos in this moving narrative that reminds us that, no matter how far we go, Greece always calls us back with the voice of the heart.
