Albertos Beraha on a stroll in Athens

Albertos Beraha on a stroll in Athens

Here you can see the Acropolis in the background and me as a young man.

I was around 20 years old here, the war was over and I went on a stroll in the Acropolis area.

After the war I was really trying to stay focused on what I wanted to achieve, which was to enter the Civil Engineering school in the Polytechneion, I really wanted to study and do something with my life.

I was at university for five years, two before the army and three after it. When I graduated from the Polytechnic University and finished my army service I went to Paris.
