Eating by the sea
Drinking your coffee or your cocktail by the sea, under the warm sun, with the sea gulls around you even in December.
When you wake up in your hotel in Greece and listen to the sound of the waves in front of your courtyard.
Going from one bar to another and wandering around in a vivid nightlife spot, where young smiling people dance inside the bars or laugh and chat outside.
Sitting on a table by the sea, in a traditional Greek tavern, with the smell of seawater, mezedes, fresh fish and ouzo.
When you meet new people in your Greek hostel, people from every corner of the planet that gather in Greece, the crossroads between East and West with the multicultural character of a country that has no limits.
Swimming in so crystal clear waters that you can easily see the seabed and admire colourful fishes passing by you.
Watching the sunset on the top of a hill and having the magnificent view of the pink and orange sea under your feet.
Strolling around in the pebbled streets of an island, a mountainous village or the historical centre of a city, where ancient, medieval and modern sites meet each other.
Touching the column of an ancient temple, which has been built 3,000 thousand years ago.
Eating souvlaki or another delicious dish from the Greek cuisine.

Watching a theatre performance in the ancient theatre it was born.
Doing winter sports in a ski resort on the top of a mountain and admiring the sun mirroring on the sea just a few miles away.
Talking to strangers, who want to help you and show you the beauties of their place.
Spending the night under the stars and the full moon on a secluded beach of a Greek island together with your friends, playing guitar and dreaming of all-year vacations.
