HEROES

Last week we celebrated a very important national holiday, the 25th March, which symbolizes the beginning of the Greek War of Independence,which finally led to the liberation from the Ottoman Empire.

On that particular day,our nation honors some historical figures,known as 'the heroes of the Greek Revolution' (Theodoros Kolokotronis,Georgios Karaiskakis etc.)

Are you a current user of one (or more) of these sites? Do you spend a lot of your free time on them? What do you think about communication online? What are some possible dangers it may include?
