This summer is flying by, don’t you think? I can’t believe it’s been almost three weeks since I got back from Greece. It some ways it feels like forever ago that we were there, however, I’m still successfully mentally resurrecting the sense of pleasure I felt being there just by closing my eyes. That country definitely … Continue reading Still swept away by Greece

Catching up – CivMix & Silvia
I'm really enjoying being a part of CivMix! The site is still being developed, but I think you will find there to be some cool features, both in terms of content and interface, once the website is fully fleshed out. Here are my most recent posts over there. Why not give a read and some … Continue reading Catching up – CivMix & Silvia

DelSo & CivMix

Over the years, I’ve written about lots of different … Continue reading DelSo & CivMix

Since we are now on our final island before our return to Athens, then home, … Continue reading The perfection of Paros

Ultimately I went with Mykonos because I thought that party atmosphere was more appropriate than a romantic setting when traveling … Continue reading Mykonos moments
Eating Athens
In Athens our only organized activity was a 3.5 hours food tour we booked through Airbnb Experiences. (Remember I did another one of these in Galway earlier this year?) if you’re traveling I recommend taking a look at Airbnb’s site and checking out what might be available at your destination. These excursions, classes and activities … Continue reading Eating Athens
