About

In addition to this blog you can navigate in my site http://www.nickkouzos.com which has been written to cover stories and historical facts about Asia Minor including videos and family history of both branches of my family

My objective in creating and maintaining a personal blog is to share with friends and colleagues  some special issues of common interests while at the same time generate a record of comments on critical events that are leaving marks of our times and can serve as a mirror of the deeds, experiences and thoughts of our generation.
I hope that this will be of  interest to some of you.

Ο στόχος μου για την δημιουργία αυτού του “Blog” είναι να μοιραστώ με φίλους και συνεργάτες μερικά ειδικά θέματα κοινού ενδιαφέροντος.

Η καταγραφή των απόψεων, σε ανύποπτο χρόνο, πάνω στα πλέον κρίσιμα γεγονότα που σημαδεύουν τους καιρούς μας ελπίζω να λειτουργήσει σαν καθρέπτης των πράξεων, εμπειριών και σκέψεων της εποχής.

Επίσεις ελπίζω ότι αυτό θα αποβεί χρήσιμο για τα παιδιά μου και πολλούς νεώτερους συγγενείς και φίλους.
Θα χαρώ να έχω παρατηρήσεις για όποιο θέμα η βίντεο από όποιους θα ενδιαφερθούν.
νεότερους συγγενείς και φίλους.
