We've all had momentary lapses of memory. If worried about losing your ring, don't bring it with you on your travels. Your jewellery will be as safe in Greece as any other country, though.

..." or does he believe the Greeks are a bunch of undernourished thieves ready to cut your finger to get your ring?"

LOL! That was what I was wondering about. Especially since Fiance is "Worried it will attract the wrong attention."

Unless it is over 2 karats or something no one will even notice it.

Do Greek woman take off their rings before leaving home? Probably not.

Really? I wore my jewellery including my 20 year wedding anniversary ring with a 1.5carat diamond in Athens last year. I don't think anyone even noticed. Athens is not a 3rd world city - crime happens everywhere.
