In Venice, as long as you remember the general location of your hotel and the train station, you can discard the map. Frankly, it doesn't help much.

It is about to leave Athens and start a solo trip to Italy. Before leaving, I spent a lot of time observing my surroundings. Here, besides people, cats are the beings I encounter most frequently.
A round trip of four hours, heading to a cape 70 kilometers away from Athens, to experience the grandeur of the Temple of Poseidon at Sounion up close.

Visiting the Parthenon, which I had seen so many times in textbooks, was my main reason for coming to Greece!
In Greek mythology, among all the tales of the gods, I am particularly fascinated by the stories about Apollo. On this trip to Greece, I was determined to set foot in Aegina Island and fulfill my dream of visiting the Temple of Apollo.
Want to capture the most beautiful sunsets and night views of Athens? Lycabettus Hill, the city's vantage point, is the perfect spot!
