Obviously, most comments regarding Greece have not been very flattering lately, due to the country’s crisis and ailing economy; yet there are still various examples of Greek people succeeding in their lives and efforts, and thus gathering positive attention.
This time it is a young rhythmic gymnastics female athlete, Varvara Filiou, that has become the centre of attention despite the fact that she did not make it to the finals.
Her picture (see left) taken during a test event at the gymnastics premises of North Greenwich Arena that will host the Olympic Gymnastics of 2012 has covered the front page of UK daily newspaper “The Telegraph”.
The Telegraph article includes other impressive photo shoots of Austrian athlete Nicole Ruprecht, Mexican Cynthia Valdez, German Jana-Berezko-Marggrander and Swiss Daria Kondakova.
