<\/p>\nI was born in Komotini but I live in Athens. The summer of 2006, during the second year of my university studies, I happened to fell in love with a girl from Komotini. It was the end of August but I was just at the beginning of my relationship with Maria. Before I even realize it I was back to Athens, back to the Athenian routine\u2026<\/p>\n
A couple of days later, I came with an awesome plan! I head off to Larissis Station, ask for the cheapest ticket and book with Karvouniaris train! Until then I didn’t know its existence, but in the next few months we\u2019ve met very well! I went back home with a big smile on my face telling my parents that l was going to stay for 3 days at a friend\u2019s house.<\/p>\n
Friday was finally here! My friends drove me to the train station and by 23.30 I was in.<\/p>\n
It was midnight and the huge journey was due to start! Fortunately, I was perfectly organized! Laptop, music, whiskey and 2 packs of cigarettes of course! Every 1o minutes \u00a0we were outside the wagon, -you know at the corridor that connects one wagon with the other- smoking\u00a0 like crazy! The craziest thing was that no one told us not to.<\/p>\n
I was desperately waiting for the train to reach its destination. I wanted so badly to see Maria, even If I knew that I could only be with her for 5 hours, as I would have to take the train the same night,\u00a0 in order to be back to Athens on Sunday afternoon.<\/p>\n
I tried sleeping a little bit. When\u00a0 I woke up, we were at Thessaloniki. From that moment, every single time that the tickets inspector was passing to check the passengers\u2019 tickets, I couldn’t stop asking him if\u00a0 we were at Komitini yet! Finally, at 13.30, the nightmare was over! \u00a0I waved goodbye at the train knowing that later I would be again on it.<\/p>\n
All this weekend travelling story continued for many more weekends! I spoke with many people, I saw new places, new realities and I have to confess that I liked all this come and go thing.<\/p>\n
Ahh! I won\u2019t also forget this specific train – Karvouniaris- because there, I had one of the greatest moments of \u00a0the Greek basketball history, the match with the U.S. I owe it\u00a0 to my friend Nickos who was calling every 5- to give the details of the game!<\/p>\n
