Olympic Games, Paris 2024

The Story of the Olympic Games The origins of the Olympic Games can be traced back to 776 B.C. in Olympia, Ancient Greece, held in honor of the god Zeus. At that time,…

Summer in Morocco

Hello and welcome to another trip! Morocco or the Kingdom of Morocco is a country in northern Africa and is a mix of languages, nationalities and cultures.

10+1 Simple Eco Tips to apply in your daily life

The planet is nature’s gift to all the creatures that inhabit it. We should love and care for it because we and the next generations exist thanks to it.

In short, it is a patchwork of things that have won…

After my trip to Zagreb (check here everything about Croatia) I was looking for a place where I could spend New Year’s Eve calmly and close to nature, which I truly love. Also, since my flight back to Greece and the distances were something that limited my time, I was looking for a place relatively close to Thessaloniki. Looking again…

However, I finally managed to make one of the trips I wanted during…

Regarding the interview, Maria Georgiadou, who I want to say that she is an exceptional and kind person, was the one I talked with and she made me…

Three days at Kerkini Lake in Greece

So, let’s see what I did… The Accomodation The villages around the lake are traditional, beautiful and the people are very hospitable.
