Memories

This photograph was taken by my stepfather in February 1992 on a Greek Island. The old 

man on the left was my grandfather. He and I went to visit my mom on summer vacation 

(although it was winter in Greece). I like this photograph because it brings me a lot of 

good memories about my grandfather and because it shows one of his most outstanding 

personal traits; he was a laid-back person and he enjoyed life. The other men in the 

photo are Greek inhabitants from Andros Island who were in a local tavern. My 

grandfather didn’t speak any Greek language but he used to enjoy eating and drinking 

with friends so I’m sure he managed to communicate anyway. Since he liked telling 

anecdotes, I’m sure he made a huge effort to spend an evening as if he were in Chile and 

I’m sure he gave my stepfather a lot of work as a translator.
