    Default A vegan in Greece

    Hello,

    I'm going to Greece for holidays in a few months and I heard that greeks eat a lot of meat.

    I would like to know if somebody had the experience of being in Greece as a vegan for holidays.

    Or if somebody knows where to find information about where to eat, etc.

    Thanks a lot!

    Marc

    Greece is a fairly good place to go as a vegan IME, although Greeks don't tend to be familiar with the concept.

    Have a look at this thread

    Whereabouts are you going?

    Hi, they really don't understand the concept of veganism over here (especially not where I live!) and they do like to have their meat especially at holiday and festival times. If you stick to recognisable foods you should be okay as long as you stress you don't want cheese or yogurt with it as they have a tendency to put it with everything!

    Hi!
    Thanks a lot for the answers. The links provided are very useful, I found a lot of information there.

    By the way, what does IME mean?

    Thanks,
    Marc

    "In my experience". If you mention what part of Greece you're going to, people may have some specific suggestions, though not me I'm afraid as I haven't been there for a year or two, alas.
