A huge wave of support has received o Yannis Zougenelis from the world for the destruction of his house in Barnabas from the big one fire that swept through Northeast Attica last week.

A great personal loss that he spoke about a few days ago saying:

“I am shocked. It was a nice detached house with a garden drowned in trees. It was completely burned from the first moment the fire broke out, but I found out yesterday because it was not accessible. My paradise is going, here where Eleonora used to come and was our sanctuary.

I had everything inside. An organized house that I built with the efforts of a lifetime. It also had musical instruments, family photos, all things loved that turned to ashes. I also had a painting of great financial and emotional value, a work by Fotis Kontoglou, which I had left here because I thought it was protected. It also turned to ashes along with everything else.”

And today he wanted to send everyone a thank you and a message:

“A very big thank you to all the people who want to support all those affected by the fire.
I also thank you personally because I realized that we Greeks are probably the most united.

The phrase I heard is: “whatever you need we are by your side, all of us”, regardless of everyone’s wealth because wealth is the feeling. Thank you. Life is ahead and we will fight for everyone. For the good of all of us” said Yiannis Zouganelis.
