Travel Stories – Ithaca, The Island of Mythology

We are all very much familiar with Greek mythology, partly because Hollywood has made a fortune out of them in various movies and books and because some schools actually included them when talking about history and how the Greeks had a God-like system to explain natural phenomena and mythological creatures to explain the evilness of the world. A large imagination is what we Greeks have. … Continue reading Travel Stories – Ithaca, The Island of Mythology

Rocking out with Muse | Athens Ejekt Festival

Back then a full bust and very small waist were considered the highest form of beauty. We all know that the fashion industry moves in circles and likes to bring back garments of the … Continue reading The Perfect Bustiers For Night Out

Movie Review / Watching “Uncharted”

When history mixes itself with action movies the result can either be an exceptional blockbuster movie, or a typical why-did-I-watch-this-film. Uncharted was a little bit of both. I am a huge fan of movies that have something to teach you. When you mix a historical event, especially one as important as the round of the earth by Ferdinand Magellan, and a pair of actors known … Continue reading Movie Review / Watching “Uncharted”

El Nacho – Eating Mexican Style

When all you’ve ever wanted in this life is to travel the world and taste life quite literally, but can’t due to local restrictions and the fear of pandemic, you have to be resourceful.

However, I still am the kind of person … Continue reading El Nacho – Eating Mexican Style

5 Things To Do After Quarantine

Lately I’ve been thinking about life before and after quarantine. It’s been almost a year since we were all, sort of, forced to lock ourselves to our homes in order to protect ourselves from the pandemic that has become one of the most serious viruses in the last 100 years. Life, I believe, will never go back to the level of normality we used to … Continue reading 5 Things To Do After Quarantine

The Drive-In Cinema Adventure

Fill your life with adventures not stuff. Possibly one of the most worthwhile quotes I have seen on the internet. All people, including myself, think that by buying stuff, by filling our material needs, suddenly we are living our lives. That is so far from the truth. In reality, near the end of your life all you think about is all the people you’ve met, … Continue reading The Drive-In Cinema Adventure
