Athena

I start my journey from Greece in July 2010. I want to visit all countries, and especially cities, where the modern summer Olympic Games have been held since 1896. Please, help me get me there!

My name is Athena. I was the female mascot of the Athens 2004 Olympics. I was made based on an ancient Greek clay toy, which can be seen at the National Archaeological Museum of Athens.
