Greece

Home / Greece - Page 2

 

Beautiful Greece is a bucket list travel destination for most people. Globally renowned for its idyllic islands, translucent waters, and mesmerising sunsets, it is no surprise that over 30 million people travel here every year.

I have lived in Athens for the last five years and have had the pleasure of exploring the country extensively during that time. Here, you can find a wealth of information to help you plan your Greece adventure – written by someone who actually lives in the country and knows it really well.

From the quaint mountain villages of Northern Greece to the Saronic Islands, Greece has a little something for everyone.
