I think to myself

  Somewhere in Iera Odos My front door in Athens Hi! My name is Rukushito Rinkanake but friends call me Rinka. I have been going back and forth between Tokyo and Athens for the last 9 years. Since, that is, a DNA test revealed I am not that "purely" Japanese but have lots of Eastern Med genes, mainly Greek! This 17% Hellenic genome sequence gave me the push to visit Athens for the first time back in 2017. Greece had never really been on my radar, I was more into NY, London, Paris kind of gal because of my fashion and design studies. However, I had experienced the Mykonos phenomenon two years prior to my first visit to Athens while on a trip there with my father, a famous sushi chef. He was commissioned by a big venture investment company to oversee the set up of the restaurant Nobou in Mykonos Hora and work for the next three seasons with the Kitchen Lab team of the prestigious Venus Amanda hotel club. It was wild! So far east, west, south and north of anything I considered...

  t he Oberon correction group agents: Maxifern n dp.Morella   Born in September    Anxious about making it in your life?  Obsessed with securing the salary, that appartment's  down payment? Tip: Escape, preferably by spending time  at a friend's home, who needs your nurturing and care!   Me: So I am to be a childless mother once again.  Sure, why not add to the stress and anxiety  of a new season to come? I know my love and affection  is a precious gift, but I must say it’s starting to feel  a little personal, don’t you think?
