Greece – the place where stories of valorous warriors found ground, a country of godly congregation, and the birthplace of democracy. A land that became a muse for poets and thinkers is a land filled with histories, relics, and natural wonders that read like a piece of haunting poetry.
Athens, where civilization as we know it was taking form, still holds a reminiscence of these bygone glory days. The epoch of legendary tests of human athletic ability—Olympia—is also a part of Greece’s geography. Through the rising tombs and crashing waterfalls, crumbling pieces of historic architecture, and rising cities, Greece keeps its philosophically stirring beauty alive.
Beaches and coastal towns along the Aegean and the Ionian Sea exemplify cosmopolitan luxury. Easy access to seafood, fluffy and flatbreads, meats, and a lot of fresh produce form the regular diet of the Greeks. Feasting like kings and sipping on exquisite wines from local vineyards are experiences open to visitors too. Enjoy your summer getaway in the land of Filo and philosophers.
