Between Two Homelands: In the mountainous village of Agios Charalambos in Evrytania, we met a special personality, the 88-year-old lady Aspasia. Her life reflects a world that has changed radically since the old difficult years in which she lived. He told us about the time when food was scarce, the clothes people wore were patched and shoes were made of pigskin. Despite the difficulties, she did not give up on her dream. Although he did not manage to finish school, he learned to sew on a machine. At the age of 19, she got married, but her two children led her to be forced to emigrate to the United States of America, looking for a better future. However, the difficulties did not end there. The working hours were long and the homesickness for the homeland and relatives was strong. However, Mrs. Aspasia managed to create a new life for herself and her family. Now, as he returns to Greece for a vacation, he faces a difficult reality. She feels like a stranger between two homelands. He misses Greece, but also prefers the security of America. She is saddened by the fact that she sees today's Greek children have changed their behavior and mentality compared to the old era. She recalls the happy moments she lived with her husband in the small cafe they used to have in the village. The story of Mrs. Aspasia reminds us of the strength of the human spirit and the importance of endurance in adverse circumstances, as well as the value of old values and memory. ❤️ SUBSCRIBE to / @greekvillagelife #village #agriculture #χωριό #greece #greekvillagelife ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• ⚠️Downloading and using excerpts is prohibited or entire videos for any reason.
