My friends make fun of me for constantly re-reading my Penguin Book of Classic Greek Mythology, but since a young age, I have been captivated by tales of the Greek gods and heroes. It feels like yesterday when we hit up Athens, Olympia, Delphi, Meteora and Santorini and the sights and sounds blew my mind – the people, the food, the culture, the history. I totally geeked out in the museums! If you get a chance, you simple MUST visit this amazing country!
I’ve put together a gallery of photos of Greece to remind me of this wondrous place, and hopefully inspire you to visit Greece sooner rather than later as well.
