  • To end my Greek adventures I visited ALL 6 of the incredible UNESCO Meteora Monasteries. I annoyed some nuns and found some Hermit Caves seen on James Bond and Game of Thrones. What a good do!

    This is a unique phenomenon and is considered to be natural, human and divine wonder all at once. It is believed to be a gift of Poseidon since people knew that it was once under the sea. Other natural wonders in Ellas are: Vikos gorge (it is a Guinness world record sight), the dragon lake of Tymfi, the forest of stone and the Lemnian dessert which is the most unique dessert in the world duo to it's stones. Rhodes's butterflies valley, Corfu's moon like shore and Melos' white shores alongside Santorini's shores are some of the more famous ones.

    Being a Monk doesnt mean youre cut off from the rest of the world, it means you dedicate your life to God. Youll see that especially if you ever visit Mount Athos (recommended), where youll meet an Italian Chirurgeon, a German IT specialist and other interesting people who left the "wordly" things to focus on the spiritual. They are though, people of their times, so use mobiles, internet, have websites, communicate etc. There are others, more strict, but many do follow their times. Save travels

      Aw I'm sad I didn't try it. I went to the Taverna Gardenia a few times and had some delicious meals. Greek food is genuinely my favourite food! I'm posting it on Instagram over the next couple of days.

    Meteora. Have u ever wondered why weather forecasters are called meteorologists? Hint. [Nothing to do with meteors] haha and the science of weather forecasting is called meteorology? Yes... bingo! . A little bit of trivia for u. It derives from the Greek word Meteora which means sky high , up in the sky and where this town got its name from.

      @Travel Saved My Life and an advice from a native. Avoid purchases near monuments. They always charge higher there. When it comes to water and/or snacks, always try to buy from towns, cities etc. We're it's cheaper
