Greece, a land where beauty and simplicity naturally blend together…

Greece is one of the most beautiful countries I’ve ever visited. So much so that I couldn’t resist moving here to live and fully experience everything it has to offer. In this travel guide, you will find tips and details to plan a visit and discover the best things to see and do in Greece.

Although Crete is the most consistent area of the blog, I’ve also written extensively about some of my favorite islands and cities in Greece.
