I first met Fadi Skaik fifteen years ago. We haven’t ever actually met in person, because he lives in Gaza and I live in Massachusetts. I am Jewish and he is Palestinian, but once our paths crossed through the internet we have been connected ever since.
After experiencing the awe of totality in 2017, I knew I had to see it again in 2024. Lucky me, it was much closer to home this time.
Visited Athens to celebrate with old friends, re-visit old places, and eat as many octopus as we can find.
