This article is about the Country of Greece and the debt crisis the country is in ever since Wall Street imploded in 2008.  They started to not be able to pay off any loans so no loans were granted and they ended up becoming bankrupt in 2010.  However, because Greece is taking in so many Syrian refugees now and closing their borders other nations have come together and started to give them money to support their debt and the Syrians that are located in the country.

The stakeholders for this issue are: The Greek government, the citizens of Greece, the European Union, the Syrian Refugees which cause the whole world to be a stakeholder in this situation.

I believe this may cause a problem right now for tourism because of how crowded Greece will become with the tourists and the Syrian refugees.  However, with the money that Greece is acquiring from supporting the Syrian refugees, I believe this will help the future of tourism in Greece because their debt will start to shrink by a tiny bit at a time.  Allowing, in the future, for the Greek’s to develop their country more enabling them to allow the tourism industry to bloom.  Especially when the Syrian war ends, then the country will not be overcrowded anymore.

The economy may be one of the worst in the world, however, Greece has one of the longest histories of any country, and is considered the cradle of Western civilization.  It also was the first country to introduce democracy!

The official language is Greek and their religion is Eastern Orthodoxy. Their pieces of art are well know across the world from famous sculptures to famous paintings located in their numerous museums. The weather is amazing as it is located along the Mediterranean sea.

June-September ranging around 28 degrees Celsius, March-May and October-November all range above 16 degree Celsius and December-February ranges around 12 degrees Celsius.

On top of all this Greece is one of the most mountainous countries in Europe.  It has many hot springs and a few volcanoes.  They have amazing landscapes wherever you go.

Interpersonal Motivator: You will be travelling threw so many towns throughout Greece and meeting many new people from Greece. Also, you will be going at a time when many tourists will be traveling to Greece, allowing you to interact with others, not only from Greece, but around the world.

Cultural Motivator: As said before you will be visiting many towns and as you walk their streets you will experience the locals culture.  On top of that, at almost every destination you will either be visiting a museum or a famous archeological site!

Greece is considered to be a Recreational, Historical and Foreign Culture destination.  It has beaches and hot springs where you can lay down/swim and relax in the sun. It has magnificent archeological sites and museums that take you back in time such as, The Stadium of Olympia and The Sanctuary of Athena and many more. Lastly, it is located in Europe which has a totally different culture than the culture in North America.

There are two major potential barriers that apply to travelling to Greece.  One is of how much in debt Greece is in, causing the country of Greece to not be in a very steady situation.  The other barrier is of how Syria is located very close to Greece. Due to the war, there are many refugees in Greece, causing the borders to be closed to leave for the refugees causing there to be an overflow of people in the country.
