The last two years have been a wild ride! One thing the pandemic brought to light is the precious worth of time!!! We can never know what the year will bring. From now on, we should be focused on creating unique experiences rather than just visiting popular cities or countries just to get it off your must-see list.

Go on a spontaneous trip to Thessaloniki! 

If you are a European citizen, you most probably have heard of this friendly, easy going city by the sea, the city of Alexander the Great, the city with 2.300 years of history. Very easy to access, Thessaloniki is a great Getaway weekend or maybe even longer! If you appreciate gourmet food, Thessaloniki will pleasantly surprise you. Sea food, kebab variations, tradition fusion Greek-ottoman pastries, Greek wine and ouzo will completely satisfy you. In the long, by-the-sea promenade you can enjoy a breathtaking sunset. You can even see Mount Olympus on a clear windy day. Archaeological and Byzantine sites, Museums and the Royal Tombs of Aiges just an hour-drive away will really impress you! If you are thinking of making this trip, don’t hesitate. It will be a wonderful experience. 

Make the trip of your life

The pandemic gave us enormous time to think, to reflect on our life, the meaning, the goals we are setting, the way we are going. The desirable “stability” or the “return to normal conditions” still seem vague. We have to go with a flow. We just don’t know how long the next pandemic may last… We have so many things that we want to do. Many of us go on planning the trip of their lives! Maybe now, this year, is the perfect time to do it. 

 Go on a Girls’ Trip

This year is the perfect time to reunite with your besties and enjoy a girls’ trip. The Pandemic has left us with a feeling of constant social distancing and what we really need right now is a sense of social gathering, of good laughs and lots of fun. Cities like Barcelona, Rome, London, Paris, Madrid, islands like Mykonos, Paros, will all be great choices for a Girls’ Trip.  It’s certainly worth it! 

Go on a Romantic Getaway

Maybe now it’s the right moment to spend some time with your significant other. A romantic getaway will breathe fresh air into your relationship and your life. You can spend few days in a romantic hotel, either in your hometown or across the world, let yourselves be spoiled by luxury and enjoy this ultimate treat. In Greece you can visit a small luxurious village on the mountains, or spend few days on a Spa hotel, or an island… Whatever you chose make sure it’s just the very two of you! 

A wellness resort is on the top of my bucket list this year. It seemed like I’ve been carrying a heavy burden the last two years and now it’s time to get rid of it. Allow me to melt in hot water, enjoying the jet whirlpools, followed by a body massage, a meditation self-session and voila, I have my life back… Oh, how much I missed this feeling…
