Dimitris Godevenos, a teacher posted to Uruguay in 2008, shares his experiences preserving Greek language and culture in Montevideo on “Time in Greece” with Nikolas Angelidis.
He discusses the challenges faced by teachers serving abroad, including family separation due to bureaucratic issues. He talks about the current situation and the shortages that are not covered abroad and explains the adventure of many teachers who have served abroad and are literally in the air… Married and with a family, he is forced to live far from his wife and children because there is no simple amendment to allow for the release of dozens of similar cases around the world.
