The first show Mid-April I was co-leading a training course in educational game design in Egio, Greece. We were a fun Erasmus+ group of almost 30 people.
Prior to my departure to Greece, I asked my co-trainer Eleni if there would be any tango dancers in the group. I learned that Georgia, one of the organisers, was a tanguera. I chatted Georgia up on Facebook. She told me she had been dancing since October 2014. I was happy to learn that. She would be better than me, yet still a beginner. We made a deal to dance and practice while I would be in Greece. Knowing I would not go without tango for two weeks made me feel good. I was still constantly checking with Life if tango was to become an integral part of it. The training course started and the nights were flying by. It was already the 6th Day of the training course and still no dancing. That evening we had an International evening. Some months later I heard a more appropriate name for it: International drinking night. And so it was. I was sitting outside on a terrace by the pool, drinking and joking around with my new friends. Georgia leaned out of the window from the bar inside and asked: »Hey! Are we gonna dance tango or what?«
