Paros was the first Greek island I visited in 2019. And after my tough experience in Morocco, it felt like heaven. I loved the beaches, the tavernas, and the winding streets of the traditional Cycladic villages. Plus, as a solo female traveller, I always felt safe and comfortable which is so important. My experience here…
Greece was a country I had wanted to go to for years, and yet when I finally made my plans to visit, the advice that I was given wasn’t quite as positive as I hoped which, to be honest, surprised me as Greece is a popular travel destination and solo travel in Greece seems to…
Greece truly is a bucket list destination. With so much to see and do, an incredible history, and some of the best food I’ve ever had, Greece quickly became one of my favourite destinations and somewhere I plan to return to again soon. However, planning your Greece itinerary can be tricky because it has so…
Zakynthos, Greece (sometimes called Zante by the British tourists) has quickly become a popular Greek island getaway. This is mainly due to images of “Shipwreck” beach circulating the internet; a white beach at the base of towering cliffs, surrounded by stunning blue water and topped with, you guessed it, an old shipwreck. This stunning landscape…
No visit to the Greek islands is complete without a visit to Santorini, at least for a couple of days. I spent a week here during my first visit, and have been back since which means I’ve had lots of opportunities to explore different parts of the island. That being said, I know not everyone…
Athens, Greece is amazing. I landed here for the first time after spending 2.5 weeks backpacking through Morocco and I honestly could have kissed the ground when I arrived and started to explore the city (you can read my real thoughts on female travel in Morocco here). Yes, Athens has a couple rough bits…
Santorini is one of those places that seems to be on everyone’s bucket list. Whether you are looking for a romantic holiday or visiting as part of a Greek island sailing tour, Santorini really is a must. But, aside from the beautiful villages of Oia and Fira, what exactly is there to see and do…
When it comes to the Greek islands, Santorini is probably the most famous. This stunning island is known for its white villages with blue-domed churches perched on the tops of towering cliffs. It’s the iconic image of the Cyclades islands and one of the most photographed destinations in the world. As such, it’s a very…
Greece has thousands of Islands and while I’ve been to several (with plans to visit many more) I have to say that Rhodes is one of my favourites. The island is big enough to keep you busy for several days while maintaining the island charm. Known for its castles, beaches, wineries and incredible history, Rhodes…
If you have heard of Doolin, Ireland it’s probably in association with the Cliffs of Moher. Located on the Wild Atlantic Way, only about 90 minutes from Galway, Doolin is the closest town to the Cliffs of Moher and therefore a popular stopping point for day trip tours or tourists on an Irish road trip.…
