When in Athens

In Greek mythology, Hermes is the Messenger of the Gods. Among other things he protects and takes care of all travelers.

It would only be appropriate then to visit the Hermes boutique at Athens International Airport prior to returning home after your August holiday spent on the Aegean Sea.  

Before diving into the attractiveness of row upon row of silk and leather know-how gird your loins with top drawer spanakopita and Nescafe at "Travel for Everest" cafe just outside the Hermes boutique in the Main Terminal #62.

Once inside Hermes you'll find the famously anticipated collection of the finest silk scarves, ties, leather accessories, watches and perfumes.  What you'll also find inside here is the inimitable, abiding Greek hospitality.  Ask for Natalie.  She will spend a most charitable amount of time showing you how to style and tie your scarfs into innumerable fashions. Never mind if your arrive with said scarves on your person...no purchase required for this lovely hospitality so emblematic of the Greek culture.

Once on board as you sip your first of many Claret in a feeble attempt to dull the pain of your first few hours outside the comfort of an umbrella-shaded sun bed you'll surely take comfort swathed in l'ailes d' Hermes.  Everyone knows Hermes often helped travelers have a safe and easy journey which is the very reason why many Greeks (and now you of course) always sacrifice to Hermes before any trip.
