Lifestyle - flashback

The 90’s were a carefree time suitable for kids and teenagers. It was the time when mobile phones and internet was still debate about something that will exist in the future. It was a colourful decade of abundance, rave parties and private television.

The teenagers of that time were watching tv for several hours as many famous presenters such as Helen Menegaki, Roula Koromila, Andrew Mikroutsikos, Popi Xatzidimitriou were the protagonists-presenters of the morning entertainment zone.

 Moreover, they all watched series like:

The tree graces, the Unacceptable, the heartbeat in Beverly Hills, Dolce Vita, the two strangers, the penthouse

But they also watched foreign series like:

Melrose Place, Full House, το Free Willy και το Jurassic Park

Notably were also the cartoons of that time. Some of them were:

Disney Club, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Candy Candy, the Smurfs, the Flintstones, Super Mario and Phileas Fogg

Furthermore, teenager’s entertainment included frenetic clubbing at clubs where you should manage to pass  the so-called face control, in order to be able to dance to the rhythm of the terrible sets of mega clubs of the time. There were took place the well known rave parties where the famous DJ’s played the so-called electronic music for hours and the illegal drug trafficking was ample.

Another habit of that time was chatrooms when the internet came up. Even if it wasn’t available at some houses there were internet cafes where anyone could chat with strangers.but, when they stayed at home they usually played with whatever nitendo was reaping, especially super Mario and tetris and the first PC games:

Myst, Sim City, Civilization, Phantasmagoria, Ripper.

Finally, they used to watch movies from videotapes along with their friends and organising the famous pyjama parties.
