    • Explore Neapoli in Greece

      Explore Neapoli in Greece

      This summer, I discovered the most underrated Greek town. Neapoli Voion, or simply Neapoli or Vatika. This small town is located in the South of the least famous “leg” of the Peloponnese peninsula. The one with terrible roads and very few tourists. If people know Neapoli, it is because the ferries to Kythira depart from […]

    • Enter ancient Greece at Mycenae

      Enter ancient Greece at Mycenae

      Explore Xanthi. In the North of Greece

      The day I heard my Greek boyfriend is from North-West Greece, I felt a bit sad. Why didn’t I find a guy from Crete, Kefalonia, or Mykonos? How am I supposed to enjoy my summers, spending an entire month in Xanthi? The only place in Greece that can have months of rain. And just 60.000 […]

    • The old, the empty, and the ugly. The story behind architecture in modern Greek cities.

      The old, the empty, and the ugly. The story behind architecture in modern Greek cities.

      The Greeks are famous for their architecture and even invented this type of art. Look at the Parthenon, the Temple of Apollo, or the ancient theatre of Epidaurus. All great examples of architecture and now on the list of UNESCO world heritage sites. Also, on the Greek islands, architecture resembles art. The idyllic villages with […]
