You made me cry...you and your dear Mum.

[@57athina]

My ancestry is from Greece, the island of Chios being one of them. A northern town of Viki, which is how I’ve always insisted on spelling my name since a little girl, is part of my heritage. Our roots do run deeper than we will ever understand, in our DNA. Thank you for this lovely tour. I also have tears in my eyes.

[@sophk15md]

oh wow my father is from viki :)

[@JohnHeos-no1hg]

Beautiful, my family is from Chios as well. I’m glad you had chance to share it with your mother.

[@sebnemaltin3354]

Watched with smile, finished with tears.. beautiful video of Chios with your mama

[@AyshL21]

awwww what an emotional and lovely end to this series. Absolutely enjoyed every minute of it. Thank you Julia and Mama moo💗💗 If only you and your family could buy that house again for future generations of your family, maybe one day - you never know 😉

[@Kwstas_Vagias]

It is more like "Mama mou" - "Μαμά μου" it sounds like moo but it means "my", "my mother".

[@bethmoseley1244]

Such a wonderful series. Helps me with my travels.

[@valiumk.9489]

Wow, I've been daydreaming about that particular house for years, every time I pass by it on my vacations, I always wonder whether it'd be for sale and maybe one day (or probably lifetime) I'd be rich enough to buy it, restore it and move in!! I'm not from Chios, but my parents fell so in love with the island so they bought a beautiful, really old, tiny house and restored it for our family to enjoy it, but my favourite places in Chios are Daskalopetra and Mesta and I'm hoping I'll move there one day.

[@MsAmique]

This was delightful to watch.

[@marthaluchi]

What a sweet moment at the end. Loved it. ❤

[@ВиталийВоронцов-к1з]

Such a great video! Bravo! So warm and quiet environment. Never been to Greece but I probably will. Have to wait when the pandemic will finally is over😬

[@lordvonmanor6915]

Chios was once called Islands of Scio. At that time it was a Negro Island document in the book of Negroponte. Ancient buildings covered with Swastikas and so amazing. These Christens were against the Islamic Ottoman and were planing to bring in N word Pagan warriors from South Asia for war. Ottoman got wind of their plan and killed them. Those who survived the massacre were enslaved. Turns out Chios was also apart of Bessarabia and never fully recovered from the Ottoman war. I would love to see it in person.

[@suzydymock4125]

So can you do the house up? A family holiday home?

[@manuelsilva6926]

allways learning...Pistacius tree...great. Thank s.

Extra special Greek Islands episode of Tracks with Julia and her Mama Mu.

[@Kwstas_Vagias]

Since you said "her" in "her mama mu" then the "mu" is not needed cause actualy it is a pronoun wich means "my". It is like you said "with her my mother" wich sounds funny :D .

[@jeanmiller2314]

Loved this, my ancestors were from Chios but apart from their surname (Pandelus) I know nothing, can anyone tell me if there ever was..or is.. families with that name there? It might have been changed due to language difficulties, I am very happy seeing this beautiful place!!

[@tomjcarty]

Lovely travels. Greek indeed is a hard language, that used to be taught in Irelands hedge schools... indeed a local secondary school when it started out in the 1940's the Latin School of Moyne reportedly was the last to teach it here... when Irish wasnt taught. So there were folk in Longford with more Greek than Gaelic!!!

[@audemontmorency3983]

Beautiful old ladies....

[@SandipGhosalmom]

Does not the tone sound similar to Santali songs in family occasion? :O

[@georgepavlov3350]

As we like to say in Chios "There's the Greek Islands and then there's Chios" 😉

[@gingermarie1760]

God loves you so much that He sent His Holy Son Jesus from heaven to earth, to be born of a virgin, to grow up and die on a cross for our sins, and to be put into a tomb 3 days and rise from the dead the third day, and He (Jesus) went back up to heaven. We must receive Sinless Jesus sincerely to be God's child(John 1:12).After we get saved by grace through faith in Christ, if we truly love the Lord Jesus Christ, then we will obey Jesus(John 14:15). Mark 1:15 "And saying, the time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: Repent ye, and believe the gospel." Jesus said in John 14:15 "If you love Me, keep My commandments. "There's a real hell. It says in Revelation 21:8 "But for the cowardly, and unbelieving, & abominable, and murderers, and immoral persons and sorcerers and idolaters and all liars, their part will be in the lake that burns with fire and brimstone..." Please sincerely receive Holy Jesus and put your true faith and trust in Him today and please repent.

In 1822 Chios got a massive slaughter from Turks

[@SpartanLeonidas1821]

🤣

[@nera345]

Waste of time! The title of the video should be my mom and my family in Chios. What a scam!

[@spudzilla66]

This one episode of a 6 part tv series .. "Julia Bradbury's Greek Islands" , hence why it is about her as much as the islands , it's not a tourist video ..

[@katethefartmonster]

As someone with a Greek husband wanting to settle there I don't understand how Chrissi doesn't want to move and renovate her gamily home?! A great series, we've visited all but one of these islands and loved them all.
