Modern Musings on Ancient Greek Herbalism
A Video with Athens Living: Visiting the National Garden
On a hot summer day in early September, I met with Corinne of Athens Living who has been making YouTube videos about interesting people and places in Athens since 2009. We briefly explored the National Garden together and spoke about my popular Myths & Medicine Plant Walks there, as well as my work as a writer and herbal retreat organizer, most recently on Samothrace island.
