"This was a fun experience. I learned to make spanakopita which I thought would be impossible but with Christina's guidance it worked! It was really a personal experience and although we were over a thousand miles and several time zones apart, she could have been in my kitchen. She is very patient and makes it fun. BTW, the class description says Christina is very serious but that was not my impression at all. She was very warm, encouraging and made this really fun."

"Christina was a wonderful host and teacher! We learned a lot about Greek cooking and daily life in Athens, and we made some delicious dishes under Christina’s watchful eyes. Thank you for this opportunity to “visit” Greece during the pandemic."

"We had a great time on our class! Christina guides you pretty well through the recipe and also gives some interesting information about Greece, funny things about the dishes we're making, which is something I really like in these experiences. She has a great energy, was very kind to our daughter who was also cooking with us. Would definitely do it again!"
