Tomorrow we leave

Some things I learned about Greece:
1. You will typically be introduced to older people first (they are greatly respected in this culture) followed by men then women.  So I guess my age will pay off here!
2. Greeks say no with any upward nod and yes by tilting the head from side to side.
3.Yes is nai
4.No is Oci - That could confuse me a little
5. Greeks are very friendly and gregarious and will talk very openly and ask all sorts of personal questions.
It is OK  for you to reciprocate and ask your host similar questions.
