This past week I was on my blogger "dashboard" just cruising around, when I found a section that tells me where people are accessing my blog from. Mostly people click on my link via facebook, but there were multiple views from another blog which I had never seen before.
This blog was titled "koufopoulo" for those of you who are avid blog readers of mine you will realize this name has a large significance to me. It is the name of the village in central Greece where I ventured to to find my long lost relatives. (for a more complete story see http://misscoven.blogspot.com/2010/07/one-where-i-find-where-i-came-from-and.html)
Needless to say I clicked on the link that lead to this blog. It was all in greek so naturally I google translated it. This guy who writes this blog found out about my adventure from one of my uncles whom I met in the village. I am just floored that he found out about my adventure, found my blog and didn't try and contact me! haha here is the translated link to this blog entry about me.

I have left comments on his most recent post and hopefully will be able to start communicating with him more regularly, possibly he will even be able to help me communicate with the family. I have had so much trouble contacting them.
I feel just so blessed right now to have been able to find this blog and this connection.
With Love,
Crista

This is truly amazing, Crista! I wish I had been there to meet our family with you! I looked at his blog and I love his pictures, I can only imagine seeing it in person.
