Gr2me is a comprehensive digital platform that highlights the rich culture of Greece. It’s designed to inform and excite people who are passionate about Greece, encouraging them to engage with the platform and connect with one another.
The site’s rich content showcases the enduring essence of Greek culture, which remains as relevant today as it was 3,700 years ago.
I was born in Greece but lived in the US for a good part of my life.
In 2020 when I visitedGreece for vacation,covid-related travel restrictions kept me hostage for more than I had anticipated. But being reluctantly “sequestered”had an unexpectedconsequence; it made me reconnect with my Greek roots.
I met old friends and I begun to observe everything around me with the wonderment of an outsider. Greece’s vibrant culture, fueled by talent, passion, humanity and above all, heritage, swept me off my feet.
This platform is my way of expressing the excitement of what I discovered and communicating it to a world who often thinks of Greece in terms of Mykonos, souvlaki and moussaka.
With Gr2me, my colleagues and I want to share our love for the real Greece: a country that captures hearts and stirs the imagination.
