In this episode of Greece Chats, I am joined by George Tsitsonis.

George is a Greek-American freelance writer who has written predominantly about soccer (football) for 20 years. Much of his work has focused on Greek soccer and his pieces have been featured in such magazines as FourFourTwo, FIFA Magazine, Soccer International, and Greek-American outlets such as Greeksoccer.com and AGONAsport.com.

He published his first book in June 2020 entitled Achieving The Impossible - The Remarkable Story of Greece's EURO 2004 Victory. It is the first book published in English on the extraordinary feat of the Greek national team in 2004 when they won the European Championship and thats what we are talking about today!

George lives with his wife, Sheila, and two children, Mariella, and Elias in New Hampshire. He is currently working on his first novel, featuring the love story of a Greek-American boy and Greek girl that touches on themes such as love, family, and cultural identity, ones that greatly impact the Greek-American community.

Let’s jump right into this conversation with George Tsitsonis.
