FOUND Holiday Decorations in Athens, OH
I was walking home from the Ohio University campus along Court Street when I spotted a tote of holiday decorations sitting behind a bench near College Green around 9:12 PM on a Sunday. The garlands were tangled with a string of red lights and a few ornaments poked out of a ripped bag. I figured someone from OU might be missing their seasonal stuff, so I kept them safe and posted here so the owner can claim them. If these decorations belong to you, this listing is your best route to reconnect.
Lost: Toasters in Athens, OH.
Last night around 11:15 p.m., I came back to my apartment on Court Street, just a short walk from the Ohio University campus, and found my two toasters missing from the kitchen counter. This morning, around 6:45, they were still gone. I walked the few blocks toward College Green and checked with neighbors, but nothing turned up. They’re not just appliances to me—they were gifts from my grandmother, and I’d love to have them back.
Gray USB-C hub with neon A5 sticker found
Found a gray USB-C hub this afternoon around 3:15pm near Monastiraki Square in Athens. It's a seven-port electronics accessory with a slightly scuffed aluminum body and a neon green sticker that reads A5 on the top. It was lying on the pavement by the Ermou Street pedestrian zone, tucked beside a backpack but otherwise undamaged. No cables attached, just the hub itself, and it looks lightly used but functional. If this belongs to you, reach out and we can arrange a meetup near Monastiraki or Syntagma to get it back; I’m happy to return it to its owner.
Navy North Face parka with detachable fur hood
I lost my navy North Face parka yesterday around 3pm near the Acropolis Museum along Dionysiou Areopagitou. It's a size M, waterproof, with a detachable faux-fur hood and a teal inner lining that peeks out when the zipper is halfway down. There's a small tear at the left cuff and a zip pocket that holds a faded photo of my grandmother. This coat has sentimental value and I really need it back—it's my go-to during chilly evenings in Athens.
Teak coffee table with glass top found
Found a teak coffee table with a glass top this afternoon around 2:15pm, leaning against the wall outside a small café on Dionysiou Areopagitou Street, just a short stroll from the Acropolis Museum in Athens. The table is about 120 cm long, 60 cm wide, with a warm honey-brown finish and a slim black metal brace beneath the glass. It has a few light scratches along the edge and a small circular dent on the top left corner. On the underside of the shelf, there’s a faded label with the name Elena written in black Sharpie and a partially smudged phone number. If this belongs to you, I’d really like to help get it back—tell me something specific about the label or its exact dimensions so we can meet up nearby and return it.
Small brass compass with initials engraved
I lost this small brass compass with my initials engraved on the back. I was wandering yesterday around 3pm and must've slipped it near Monastiraki Square, along Ermou Street and the old market stalls here in Athens. It's about the size of a matchbox, brass with a tiny crack on the rim, and the initials 'NK' are engraved on the back. It sits in a faded brown leather pouch with a stitched seam that’s starting to fray. It’s sentimental—my grandfather gave it to me on a trip years ago—and I’d really love to get it back. If anyone finds it, email me at [email protected].
Light blue scarf with silver fox pin
I lost my light blue scarf yesterday around 3pm near Monastiraki Square in Athens. It’s a soft knit, about 180 cm long, with a small silver fox pin near the right-end fringe. There are a couple of faint coffee stains on the inner edge and a loose thread along the seam, but otherwise it’s in good condition. I was wandering from Ermou Street toward the Flea Market when the wind whipped it away, and it really means a lot to me because my grandmother gave it to me before she passed. If anyone finds it, please let me know — I’d be forever grateful.
Left blue-tinted contact lens near Syntagma Square, Athens
I’m missing one contact lens from my Acuvue Oasys set — left eye, with a light blue tint to help spot it. It’s in good condition, no tears, but there’s a tiny micro-scratch along the outer edge that you can only notice up close. I wore it yesterday around 3pm, likely dropped near the Syntagma Square metro entrance on Ermou Street in Athens. It’s the only one I have until I can replace it, so I’m really hoping to get it back; I’m anxious about my eyes and work without it.
Found Athens student ID card with blue stripe
Found a university student ID card this afternoon around 3:15pm near the Acropolis Museum entrance on Dionysiou Areopagitou Street in Athens. The card is roughly credit-card size, white plastic with a blue gradient stripe across the top, a small portrait photo on the left, and the owner's name printed in both Greek and Latin scripts along the bottom. The back has a tiny coffee stain in the corner and a slight bend at the bottom-right, with an ID number faintly visible. Since it includes personal info, I want to get it back to its owner—if this is yours, we can arrange a quick pickup near Syntagma or at a nearby metro stop.
Pearl red-gloss 14x6 snare drum
I lost my Pearl 14x6 snare drum, red-gloss finish, after a short gig yesterday around 3pm near the Athens Concert Hall on Vassilissis Sofias Avenue. The shell has a few light scratches and a noticeable dent on the rim around the 3 o'clock lug. The snare wires feel a bit stiff and the head shows wear, but it still sounds sharp when struck. Inside the shell there’s a small blue sticker with the initials LH and a tiny red paint chip along the edge—easy to spot if you’re curious. This drum was a gift from my grandfather, so it’s really sentimental to me and I’d be incredibly grateful to get it back.
University of Athens student ID card with blue lanyard
I lost my University of Athens student ID card yesterday around 3pm near the Acropolis Museum, along Dionysiou Areopagouitou. It's a white plastic card with a blue border and my photo on the left, plus the university crest on the back. The royal blue lanyard has a small white crest near the clip. There’s a coffee stain on the bottom left corner and a light crease along the right edge. A small sticker on the back shows my faculty access code, which helps me get into the library and buildings. I really need it back to keep up with my classes and campus facilities.
Black 28” Samsonite suitcase with red tag
I lost my black 28-inch Samsonite suitcase yesterday around 3pm after I stepped off the metro at Monastiraki and wandered toward Ermou Street. It's a sturdy hard-shell case with a few scuffs on the bottom edge and a bright red fabric luggage tag with my initials 'S.D.' on the handle. One corner shows a small dent, and the zipper pull is slightly bent from travel. Inside, I had my travel documents, a printed itinerary, and a faded photo of my grandmother—things I can’t replace. If you found it somewhere near Monastiraki or Ermou, please reach out; I really need it back.
Silver Pandora bracelet with heart charm
I found a silver Pandora bracelet this afternoon around 3pm on the pedestrian path along Dionysiou Areopagitou near the Acropolis Museum in Athens. It's a 7-inch silver-tone bracelet with a blue enamel heart charm and a tiny dolphin charm, and the clasp is engraved with the initials 'MP'. There's a little wear by the clasp, otherwise it's in great shape, like it could be a cherished keepsake. If this belongs to you, message me here and we can figure out a safe way to return it.
Missing person: Maria Kostopoulou, 26
I’m missing my sister, Maria Kostopoulou, 26. Last seen yesterday around 3pm near Monastiraki Square in Athens, possibly headed toward Ermou Street. She was wearing a navy blue parka, gray hoodie, black jeans, and white sneakers, and she has a small dove tattoo behind her left ear; she’s carrying a light blue backpack with a red scarf tied to the strap. I’m really worried and just want her back safe; if you see her or have any information, message me here and I’ll reach out.
Missing: Leila Farouk, 28-year-old woman
I'm Leila Farouk's sister. We last saw her yesterday around 3pm near the Syntagma Square metro entrance on Ermou Street, Athens, heading toward Monastiraki. She's 28, about 5 ft 6 in, with long dark hair, wearing a light gray hoodie, blue jeans, and white sneakers with a red stripe. She has a small star tattoo on her left wrist and a faint scar above her right eyebrow. She told me she was meeting a friend by the metro, but she hasn't shown up since. I'm really worried and would appreciate any sightings or updates from anyone who might have seen her around central Athens yesterday afternoon.
