Two things that got me out of my comfort zone this trip was talking to locals that I met and taking the public transportation. Talking to locals can seem intimidating at first, especially not knowing if they speak English and not wanting to be disrespectful either. I haven’t had one bad experience though, and everyone I met has been super friendly and outgoing. Taking public transportation was interesting to figure out as a group especially with the signs being in Greek and remembering the correct train station name and bus stop number. Today, I learned about Walmart’s ethical scandal that I had no prior knowledge about. Walmart has been accused of violating a variety of workers rights, from underpaying foreign workers and denying over time pay. There has even been malpractice lawsuits within the company.
