GIONIS: We need to stay at home

Greek Panagiotis GIONIS is at home in Athens and his first concern was his parents.

 

“First of all I have not seen my parents after Polish open and I am only in contact sometimes with one friend. I know he is also in quarantine and he take good care!! It is difficult to make many activities and to stay in shape because everything is close. Sometimes I just running in the park next to my home ” explained GIONIS.

 

Like most of people he is forced to spend the time at home.

“My home activities are Netflix series and at the moment Narcos Mexico is at the top of the list; not to forget the playstation online! When I meet with my friend we play also backgammon for many hours!”

 

GIONIS continued in more serious tone:

 

“It is very difficult and strange period for everybody in the World! I want to say to my fans that we have to follow the advices and instructions of our Governments to end this corona pandemic as soon as possible! We need to #stayhome#! I wish health to everybody and this bad dream to end soon!”
