Hello once again my boys and girls how are you?
i havent received an answer to this question like never!!
Each and everyone may sometime face a huge dilemma, and that is
''Where should i go for vacations?''
You start checking your budget, the days you will spend and then try to find a place according to your needs. This can vary cause of your age,preference,money,purpose etc etc but i am here to provide you with some reasons to visit Greece a country i believe has everything anyone can wish for! Just to let you know i wont start with historic facts and the whole presentation about Greece i will just state reasons and tell a couple of things about it!
WHY YOU SHOULD VISIT GREECE
BEACHES
We got them mostly everywhere and because we are not such a big country you could easily go without spending to much time so if you think about it you can combine your swimming with a walk,a restaurant etc etc. Moreover we have some of the best beaches around the world and they are even different from each other. What i mean by this is that you find deep or shallow ones, with sand or stones, Dark or light blue, colder or warmer, with a lot of people or with none,beaches for nudists or not, in other words WELCOME TO THE BEACH PARADISE
WEATHER
Let me start with a question. What's the weather like in your country? After you think about that i will let you know that in Greece we are ''bored'' to have sunny days and you will bored too when you come :) I hear in some countries when there is a sunny day people stop working and just enjoy the day. If you come especially during summer i would suggest that you take your swimming outfit,a hat and sunglasses and dont worry about a thing!
Ofc there are rainy days too but mostly its just light rains with small duration. Something else i want to mention is that depending on where you will go the weather might differ for example if you go to a city located in a mountain there are more chances of raining and cold but in general during summer even in these places you dont have to worry about ''bad'' weather
HISTORY
You all know what a great civilarization Greece had and from ancient Greece to now a lot of things happend like Byzantine empire,romans,crusaders,venetians. What can i say they all loved us! Because of that strong history timeline you can expect to see a lot of things and i mena A LOT. Whenever you go you will see something and i can say it for sure. Think of it like a mixture of the old and new living together in harmony. You can be in one place and at the same time see an ancinet building next to a byzantine church and 2 minutes from there common houses. Especially in the capital of Greece Athens you can live the whole experience on what i mentioned above.
If you dont wanna go in Athens but still you want to see and learn about Greece's history then there is no problem. Every city has its hidden gems and we talk about way to much gems. There is no way you will go to a city and you cant find an ancient building or a museum. Just to give you an idea on what i am talking about, mostly every village has something historic for anyone to see even villages with 50-100 people. i still havent visited all the historic places within max 2 hours distance both in my village and city i am located.
If you want to see them all then take a hat pretend Ash ketchum and go ''visit them all''. You gonna need a lot of ''seasons'' like the anime had in order of that happening!
VARIETY OF PLACES
Its kind of the same as with the historic sites. You are a mountain lover that likes hiking and fresh air? We got the mountains you want to! You want sea? As i mentioned we got some of the best in the world! You are a christian and want to discover more about christianity and god? We got this as well, there is even a whole place that only priests lives in! You are the kind of person that likes rivers? Haha guess we have rivers you can see yourself in their waters! You just want eat some good food? Haha if you just taste our food then there is no going back! You want to witness what night life means? THEN KEEP READING!
NIGHT LIFE-FOOD
Most of the countries have nowhere near the nightlife Greece has especially Europe. Moreover with some regulations existing in a couple of Europian countries regarding alcohol when these people from those countries visit Greece the drunk lvls are out of this world. Its their purpose to come in Greece and just get drunk but thats not what i consider night life, thats just wasting your time. We have envolve nightlife wait to much, i can even say we max it. We max it such extend that now is considered ''fulllife'' and what i mean by this is that when you get up in the morning there a too many places for you to go for a morning coffee instead of your hotel. From underground cafeterias too cafeterias with the view of Acropolis anyone can be happy and found a shop that match their criteria. Furthermore we got such a variety of coffees and drinks that you gonna be ''mindfucked"
In case you want to see some videos of what is happening click on youtube ''Greek nightlife'' or ''Punda beach summer'' or ''The IOS Greece 2014 aftermovie'' the reason i dont put directly the videos is that i dont know the commercial use licencing regulations
After your morning coffee you can find a restaurant for your dinner with Greeks flavours or anything else you want to. If you think you dont have the time to sit and enjoy your food for various reasons like that you want to visit some places then dont worry, there are many worthwhile street food shops providing you with cheap and tastefull food like the world's favored Souvlaki
After all this get ready for either clubbing or some greek traditional types of entertainment that blow your minds out. When the night starts till the sun rises once again another greece will come in surface. I dont want to say more about our nightlife you just want to check it out on your own. The only thing i want to share is that during summer many greek islands are full of 18-25 years old young men and women from all over the world with only one purpose
To have a great time and fun ;)
Now if you consider money as a problem i want to tell you that with the economic crisis everything is quite cheap if for most of you. i will have posts that explain in more details about everything and even suggesting places to visit.It might seem that wrote a lot but in fact i havent said anything yet!. If you have something to ask me do it without any more thinking and if you have experiences from your travels please share it in comments!
So what are you waiting for? Book a sit and come!

I've been to Halkidiki - the three fingers of Greece. I lost my camera there and a Greek man told me it was in my car (with an open window!) which is was. Such honest people. I love them a long time after this.

the world needs give people more chances for traveling instead of working their asses of all day for years with the ''dream'' of when you get 60-70 then you can do whatever you want. Travelling is beneficial for everyone especially in young ages and in my opinion brings people closer. for example you might know that Greece and Turkey are ''mortal enemies'' etc etc if a greek visits turkey as i did or vise versa you realise that none has anything against each other, everyone is friendly and in fact we have way too much thing in common but ofc for some politic-economic reasons an image of Greece and Turkey as enemies must be made.... Travelling helps erasing that kind of stuff!
