The market
Greece is not the land of frozen foods! Fresh fruit and vegetables are eaten every day. This has contributed to making Crete one of the most envied places in the world by nutritionists.
Currency
The currency in Greece used to be the Drachma. The note opposite was worth about 10 francs (? US dollars). 1000 Drachma were worth 20 francs (? US dollars). However, all that has changed now as they have gone over to the Euro.
