“Travel is never a matter of money but of courage”. -Paolo Coelho-
Stressful week? Want to unwind and escape away from City life? I bet we’re on the same shoes or maybe not. Some love to go to work because work is work and we need it to sustain our daily needs. Some go to work because they have to in order to survive. And some work not because of their self but because some members of the family depends on them. And what keeps me driving to go to work despite the fact that I love traveling and adventures? Right! I need to go to work because my family needs me and nature’s waiting for me to discover them.
I intend to write my thoughts about my unanticipated wonderful experiences together with different people, student, etc. Throughout my journey for this year “2018”, I’ve met different people and amazing experiences which made my year wonderful and memorable.
Let’s start from my hometown in Tabuelan, Cebu. Located in the northern part of Cebu, you’ll found a wonderful white sand beach. Two years ago Maravilla White Sand beach was not very popular until a resort called “Tree Sunset Beach Resort” meters away from Maravilla went viral online for its unique concept that was very suitable for young adults to hangout with and have fun away from the city. After that resort became popular the public beach of Maravilla became a spot for those whose on their budget or a group of people having their team building or just chilling along the beach.
And this was my favorite in Maravilla White Sand beach, the sunset. The place very much comparable to Boracay because in Maravilla the sunset’s so wonderful and Instagram worthy to those who love photography.
If you love to beach as your prenup or pre-wedding photos, Maravila’s the best location. It’s not too crowded and it has a long shoreline and wonderful spots for your partner. Take note no need for you pay just to do photo shoot in the whole place. 🙂
So how to go to Maravilla? That’s a good question. All you need to do is to go to Northbus terminal. You have options depends on your comfort zone.
You can take “Inday Meme Bus” that will go directly to Maravilla public white sand beach. But this bus is not like “Ceres bus liner if your familiar”. This is an ordinary bus and the seat’s not really spacious. Mostly the bus is crowded over the weekend because most of the local’s from Tabuelan will go home.
Take a V-hire if you want to save time. However; there’s no guarantee that the V-hire will go directly to Maravilla. Some V-hire’s will pass by the beach and some will just have their stationary at the public Market. Because the other V-Hire’s will be heading to Tuburan. So you need to take a motorcycle that would take you to Maravilla.
The third option is most likely the same with the V-Hire. Take a bus “Ceres bus liner.” Going to Tabuelan-Tuburan, and once you reach Tabuelan public market take a motorcycle to Maravilla.
So the choice is yours and Maravilla’s waiting for you guys. 🙂
Next stop, let’s have the latest viral instagramable destination within your reach in Cebu City, @Neri’s Ville Selfie Corner. Expected expenses are the following:
P100 per way by motorcycle or (habal-habal) and that’s per person. The motorcycle can accommodate 2 people. Before it was only P80 per way, however due to its popular in demand they’ve increase the fare because of the waiting fee. But if you have car then your good to go.
P50 for the entrance,parking fee at Neri’s Ville when we went there if you have your own car was for free.
Jeepney fare if your from Ayala or Colon in Cebu City take a Jeepney that will go directly to “Pit-os” Talamban or 62B & 62C jeepney code. Fare was less than P20 each.
Operating hours; From Mondays-Sundays 8AM-& 7PM.
And always be a responsible visitor, follow the Leave no Trace policy guys.
During our visit, the owner herself was painting some inspirational travel line’s along the stairs and in the entrance part there was a constructions on going. The place was really cute and don’t expect that they have an expansive place once you enter Neri’s Ville selfie Corner.
We had our first stop at their mini hobbit house. We couldn’t ask someone to take us this photo so we set our small tripod and use the small Bluetooth remote in taking the photo.
Even though we reach the place around 9 o’clock in the morning, group of people were already there mostly occupying the hobbit house. And we we’re not given the chance to take some photos because they’ve stayed longer like no plans of going out so that other guess will have the chance to take photos.
So what we did, was just took a selfie together with my pretty student “Yoyo” her English name at the back the yellow mini hobbit house.
This was one of my favorite spot, in front of this was a spider swing.
And of course the most popular one, the Bali inspiration of everyone this spot was considered the most popular online.
Probably our number spot, since the scenic view’s like a painting and it was pretty amazing when we check the photo after the criminology student took this for us. “Thanks to them”.
I had a shot conversation with the owner and she told me how there mini garden went viral suddenly. She said “someone visited their place, took some photos then that person posted their photos in Social Media account, Boom! It became suddenly a hit, especially millennial babies love posting photos that has a nice and interesting ambiance. To their surprised, they suddenly open their place to the public and tried their best to upgrade and do a lot of stuffs to make it more interesting. One thing that made this all worth it, was motorcycle drivers was able to have extra income because people from time to time visit the place especially to those who don’t have their private transportation. And I really adore the owner because she’s very open for suggestions and improvement of their place though it was not that really a huge place. Keep it up!
After Neri’s Ville we went to Balaman to chase the sunset. And this iconic color hanging bridge was located in JVR’s Island in the Sky Resort.
Before we had our visit at JVR we head first in Manunggal Peak to had a short hike however, they wont allow us to do so unless we have a guide. We reached the place almost 4pm and we tried our best to haggle not to have a guide instead we will pay an entrance fee that they have before for P80. But they insisted that it was not okay, we need to have a guide for them to allow us to reach the peak. It was disappointing because the motorcycle was already a total of P300 back and fort then we will pay another P400 even though it was already late. So what we did, we gave up and head directly @JVR Island in the Sky Resort.
For only P50 you’ll have a great sunset view from this resort. There was a new resort nearby calles Florentino and their sunset view was very awesome too.However; I wanted to be more unique and capture nice nature view with my Coco.
Coco’s smile while we chase the sunset was so precious. I’m glad that she liked this resort to forget the unfortunate experienced when we went in Manunggal.
Thank you so much Coco for trusting me in taking a great adventure with you on your stay here in Cebu.
As the sun sets let the peace and harmony be with you Coco to ease the pain and burden you carried after your Mom passed away. I hope that you’ll remember all the good things that you had together with her and strive for happiness in life. Fighting!
Best of Top of Cebu Restaurant.
Before we end our journey on that day, we need to fill in our hungry stomach. From JVR Island in the Sky Resort, we went to Sirao Peak for a short hike even though it was already dark and called my friend nearby to fetch us and take us to Top of Cebu.
My apologies for the quality of the photo. Meet Juan or John one of my hiking buddy who lives nearby and we ask a favor since we were lucky on that night that he’s available to fetch us from Sirao Peak after our short hike.
We waited for around 20-25 minutes before our dinner was served. We ordered, Busay express as I remember, sisig rice and fiesta rice and for our main course was chicken adobo sa gata and grilled pork belly. While waiting for our food, our three San Mig Light was served first so we had time talking with one another. For more details please visit their Facebook Page.
For your reference you can check out their menu. I did not personally took the photo for this menu. I’ve search through google’s image and it was the same menu as what I have in my phone.
One of my light room preset was responsible for this awesome photo. Thanks a lot Coco for the wonderful dinner we had together with Juan.
Give your best smile after dinner 🙂 It was so funny that our outfit was too sporty during our visit. But who cares right? We’re here to eat and enjoy the wonder city lights view on top.
This is #CEBU a must photo you ought to take once you dine and visit Top Of Cebu.
As for my personal thoughts about the food? Guys, it was superb! I gave it two thumbs up! Top of Cebu’s a sister restaurant of Lantaw but my honest opinion will go to Top of Cebu. Their food was really tasty, of course Lantaw’s food was tasty as well but Top of Cebu was for me ahead 2 points when it comes to serving and variety of cuisine and its taste. Both have a reasonable price, and serving time was completely the same. But the food was really different and interesting, plus its wonderful ambiance.
Somewhere in Malubog Lake in Toledo, Cebu.
Our next destination for our second day was a hiking morning @Mt.Tagaytay in Toledo, Cebu.
Mt. Tagaytay in Toledo, Cebu was pretty amazing and was really good for beginner hikers.
However; we were not lucky enough as we arrived because the weather was not good and it was already raining. We had our stop at a local house and we can’t afford to hit the trail on that rainy day. We were so lucky that the owner of the house invited us over and she gave us another option where we should go since the weather’s not with us.
Our guide kuya Nilo took us to the mini falls and we hike along the stream.
But unfortunate event happened after we took this photo together with my student. The water suddenly went up and there’s no way for us to cross that river going back.
Coco with the country’s national animal. 🙂
Before we reach this part of the river, check out my first photo. We need to hike up to the mountains and find our own trail so that we can go back. Our supposed destination was the mini falls because of its rock formation, the tunnel and also going to the lake after this mini falls. But we were not lucky enough to achieve our plan. We gave up and went back for our safety. Good thing that our guide was part of the barangay official so he was very kind and also worried a lot since I am with a foreigner. Hopefully next time we will be able to achieve our goal. Total budget that we spent for this trip was the following:
P80 each for the habal-habal or motorcycle ride. Before it was P60 each but a sudden increase was expected as Mt. Tagaytay became popular online.
P100 V-hire Express, from Cebu to Toledo. But you need to tell the driver to drop you at Brgy. Magdugo. Landmark was Julies bakeshop and motorcycles are already lining once you reach the place.
The total experience was priceless though we were not lucky enough to reach our destination. Well there’ll be a next time, hope to make it happen soon.
How come the water suddenly went up after I took this photo.
Just keep smiling and going, it’s not the end of the day. Tomorrow will be a better day for us.

Normandy… A year ago
It was exactly a year ago* when my trip to the Normandy started: Five days of vacation spent in the northern coastline area of France that I can easily consider as one of the best vacations I have had. The weather last July was perfect for the visit: sunny with a sweet breeze. It rained when I was visiting Honfleur, but I still managed to enjoy every bit of the trip. Thinking of planning your next vacation? Let’s see where you can go if you decide to follow my steps…
Where to Stay
The Normandy region consists of several cities and villages on the northern part of France. If you have a car, it will be easier to move around the different places of interest. If you don’t (just like me), it is better to stay in a central area, easily accessing your destinations by public transportation (trains, buses, tour operators). My plan was to visit Caen, Honfleur, Mont Saint-Michel, and the D-Landing beaches. My friend, who happens to be French, and was raised in Picardie, recommended including Bayeux in my itinerary. I had never heard of Bayeux before, but after his recommendations, I read about it and found out it was the perfect place to stay in: a small city, reachable by train from the airport, perfect for walks, holding a bit of history in its tapestry museum, and allowing easy access to all my other destinations. And that was it; I booked my hotel in Bayeux!
There are different accommodation options in Bayeux. They range from guesthouses, to hotels and villas. I opted for a 3-stars hotel, “Hotel Le Bayeux”. It is perfectly located at few minutes’ walk from the center, and it serves the best homemade cakes for breakfast J
What to Visit
- Bayeux: This is the home of victorious conquests. Famous for the “Bayeux tapestry” depicting the conquest of England by the Normans, this is also the first town where the allies’ victory was secured by the Operation Overlord, following the German occupation in World War II.
Bayeux is a beautiful town with an old preserved medieval center, half-timbered houses, cobblestone lanes and watermills.
Its majestic cathedral, Notre Dame de Bayeux, overlooking the center dates back to the times of “William the Conqueror” the first Norman king to reign over England.
It was for the cathedral decoration that the famous tapestry was originally embroidered. Over 70 meters of length telling the story of the conquest of England in 1066, the tapestry is now registered in the UNESCO memory of the world register. It is now preserved in the Tapestry Museum in Bayeux.
Bayeux is also home to the Memorial Museum of the Battle of the Normandy displaying the advance of the Allied troops leading to the victory. It also included military equipment and uniforms. Unfortunately, I didn’t have enough time to visit it.
For those who prefer a break away from the historical aspect of Bayeux, you can stroll the streets of the downtown “Vieux-Bayeux” up to the Botanical Garden, where you can learn about trees and plants following a trail marked by information panels.
- Mont Saint-Michel:
The Mont Saint-Michel is one of France most famous attractions, and a UNESCO world heritage site. We have all seen the picture of the island with its majestic monastery. What makes Mont Saint-Michel special is location is the tidal area. On low tide, you can walk to reach the island, but make sure to check the time of the high tide in order to secure your way back.
Visiting the island, walking its narrow streets up to the top of the abbey, and then walking back to the mainland while watching the water level getting higher, was all magical. But what made my day there even special, was sharing the day with 2 lovely American couples who made me feel like family. I dedicate this post to you Carol and Sandy, and I hope we will cross roads again!
- D-Landing Beaches:
Your visit to the Normandy is not complete if you don’t include the landing beaches. The tour I took there was very informative. It took us back to the period of WWII, tracing the details of Operation Overlord, visiting different landing sites, the Omaha beach, the American cemetery and ended in the amazing Overlord museum that displays the personal collection of Michel Leloup.
- Honfleur:
With its picturesque harbor that inspired artist like Monet and Boudin, Honfleur is one of the most charming towns and a popular summer destination. Stroll along its streets, visit its farmers market, enter its tiny shops, and savor its delicious food. It is guaranteed to have a lovely day in Honfleur. I was able to enjoy it despite the rain on that day.
- Caen:
Caen is the capital of the Calvados department. It features a port, a castle, an abbey and many more landmarks worth visiting. I only passed through Caen on my way to Honfleur, so I will definitely account for more time to see it, during my next Normandy visit. Caen is not the only city I couldn’t include in my planning. Normandy includes many more areas worth visiting like Rouen, Giverny, Deauville, Fecan, Etretat and Le Havre. That makes enough for another trip, doesn’t it?
What to Eat
Two words: apple and crepes. Well French cuisine is delicious all over France. But when in Normandy, I made sure to have as many crepes as possible: whether savory or sweet, you can satisfy all possible tastes. As for beverages in the Calvados area, they are mostly based on apples, so I made sure to have my share of apple juice during my visit. My favorite spots during that trip were:
In Bayeux:
- Restaurant Le Pommier: I had monkfish and brown rice
- Au Louis d’Or: All their crepes are delicious
- Le Comptoir de la Reine Mathilde: Awesome settings for a cup of tea and cake
In Honfleur:
- La Gambetta: seafood restaurant
- Maison George Larnicol: Get lost in their chocolate universe!
In Mont Saint-Michel:
Make sure to buy some cookies from “La Mere Poulain”. My favourites were the apple cookies.
My trip to Normandy was special in many ways, but it was mostly special because it was my first solo trip for a vacation. I have travelled alone before, but it was mainly for a business purpose. Taking the decision to travel alone to the Normandy was not easy, but I never regretted it. That trip made me realize that I can cross the path of total strangers in different unexpected ways, meet beautiful souls from around the world, and build nice memories that I will cherish forever. During that trip I met people who initiated me to changing my perception of things, appreciate every sweet moment, and learn that despite every issue we face, beautiful things can happen when we least expect them.
Happy travelling!
* I started writing this post in July, but didn’t have the chance to finalize it and post it till August.

What are the UK travel rules from May 17? (CNN) — As of today, going on holiday is no longer illegal for travelers from England, Scotland and Wales. While the move has been met with relief from those eager to take a foreign holiday, many have been left confused by the new travel regulations, along with the risk-based “traffic light” system that’s now in place. Here’s everything you need to know about the UK travel rules. Can UK residents now travel abroad for a holiday? From May 17, residents of England, Scotland and Wales are allowed to go on vacation now that restrictions which made it illegal to travel abroad for non-essential reasons have ended. However, government officials have warned that the experience will be very different due to ongoing concerns around Covid-19. “This is a new way of doing things, and people should expect travel to be different this summer — with longer checks at the borders, as part of tough measures to prevent new strains of the virus entering the country and putting our fantastic vaccine rollout at risk,” UK Transport Secretary Grant Shapps said in a statement on Monday. What are the green list countries? The UK’s traffic light system for designating safe travel destinations, lists 12 countries or territories it classifies as “green” — meaning anyone traveling there will not have to quarantine on return. These are: Portugal (including the Azores and Madeira); Australia; New Zealand; Singapore; Brunei: Iceland; Faroe Islands; Gibraltar; Falkland Islands; South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands; St. Helena, Ascension & Tristan da Cunha and Israel. It’s worth noting that entry to Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Brunei and the Faroe Islands is heavily restricted, so a destination’s appearance on the list doesn’t automatically mean that UK travelers can go there. Which countries can I visit if I live in England? English travelers are permitted to visit 12 “green” destinations without having to quarantine on their return, provided they take a pre-departure test, as well as a PCR test on or before day two of their arrival back in the UK. That said, some countries currently listed as green, such as New Zealand and Australia, are not permitting While travelers are also allowed to visit countries designated “amber” or “red,” the restrictions are much stricter, making them far less attractive options. Those who choose to visit places on the “amber” list, which include France, Greece, Spain and Italy, will have to quarantine for 10 days, take a pre-departure test and also get a PCR test on day two and eight of their isolation. However, “amber” destinations qualify for a test-to-release scheme, which means holidaymakers can take a PCR test after five days’ quarantine. If they receive a negative result, they will be permitted to go out into the community. Travelers from England who choose to visit “red” list destinations are required to check in to one of the UK’s quarantine hotels, at a cost of £1,750 (around $2,445) per adult when they return. They must also follow the same testing regulations as those arriving from “amber” destinations. Which countries can I visit if I live in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland? Scotland and Wales’ May 17 “green lists” are initially the same as England’s, but they might change according to the two countries’ needs. From May 24, people in Northern Ireland will be able to make non-essential trips to other parts of the Common Travel Area, which includes the UK, the Republic of Ireland, the Isle of Man and the Channel Islands. The Northern Ireland government has yet to announce a relaxation of its international travel rules. How is the UK deciding which countries go on its lists? The UK government has said the decision-making is based on factors including a country’s Covid-19 transmission risk, its variant of concern transmission risk and its genomic surveillance capability. The UK’s Joint Biosecurity Centre has undertaken risk assessments for each destination, using data including total number of vaccination doses administered per 100 people. You can read more about the data used here, and about the methodology here. Should I book a summer holiday in a country on the amber list? The amber list contains some of the UK’s most-loved tourist destinations, such as Italy, Greece, Spain and France. The government guidance is that UK residents should not be booking holidays to “amber list” countries, or planning any nonessential travel, but it is no longer illegal to do so. The amber list is subject to change, which means countries may move to green or red at any time. Can I go on holiday in the UK? Travelers from England, Scotland and Wales are allowed to go anywhere within those countries and overnight stays are permitted at hotels, B&Bs and hostels. Nonessential travel in and out of Northern Ireland is still banned and tourist accommodation is yet to reopen. Those who plan to visit any of the Scottish islands are advised to take two lateral flow tests before their trip. Will I have to quarantine when I come home? Quarantine rules depend on whether the country you’re traveling to/from is on the “green,” “red” or “amber list.” If you are arriving into the country from a “red” list country, you will have to quarantine in a designated hotel upon arrival for 10 days at your own expense. Bookings must be made through this online portal. The charge for a single adult is £1,750. There are designated quarantine hotels in England and Scotland. If your final destination is in Wales or Northern Ireland, you will need to book a hotel in England or Scotland. If you are arriving from an “amber” list country, you will have to quarantine at home for 10 days. The other people in your household do not need to quarantine with you, unless they were also on your trip, or they have Covid symptoms, or they test positive. If you are arriving from a “green list” destination, quarantine is not a requirement. The quarantine requirements work in tandem with testing. It’s compulsory to take a Covid test on or before day two of your quarantine, and on or after day eight. If you are arriving in England from an “amber” country, it’s possible to end your quarantine early via the Test to Release system. This involves paying for a private test, if it’s negative, you can end your quarantine period. It’s not possible to do this until you’ve been in England for at least five days. If you’re arriving from a “red” or “amber” destination, your passenger locator form must contain details of your quarantine destination. You can get public transport to your place where you intend to quarantine, but the official guidance is to only do so “if you have no other option.” For the full rules, see here. During your quarantine, you will be contacted by NHS Test and Trace. When will the rules change? The UK government has said the “red”, “amber” and “green” list will be “continuously monitored” and updated every three weeks, so it’s worth keeping tabs on a destination before you depart. There’s no guarantee that a “green” country will stay that way. As for the system more generally — the guidance says travel restrictions will be formally reviewed on June 28, no later than July 31 and October 1, 2021. Will I need to be vaccinated to travel? Some countries, such as Iceland, are now open to international travelers who can present proof of vaccination. In the absence of this, sometimes a recent negative Covid-19 test, or proof of recovery from Covid-19 will also suffice. The rules frequently change from country to country and it is advisable to check destination-specific requirements before booking travel and closer to departure. Will I need a Covid test to travel? Yes. Travelers heading to approved destinations will need to take a pre-departure test, as well as a PCR test on or before day two of their arrival back in the UK. A test may be needed by the country you’re traveling to. Most destinations that are open to arrivals now require a recent negative PCR test before visitors can enter. Of the countries on the UK “green” list that are currently welcoming tourists or are feasible to reach from the UK, all require a negative PCR test. Some also require visitors to quarantine. When can UK citizens fly to the United States? The US is currently on the UK’s “amber” list. As explained above, the UK does not advise nonessential travel to “amber” countries. Plus, UK residents have been banned from entering the United States since March 2020 and this ban is still in place. When the initial “green list” destinations were announced, the World Travel & Tourism Council expressed disappointment that the US was not included and accused the UK government of being “too cautious.” Airlines have also been clamoring for the reintroduction of the transatlantic travel corridor, one of the world’s busiest air routes during pre-pandemic times. It’s unknown when the United States might make it onto the “green list” but it’ll likely coincide with a lifting of US restrictions on UK travelers. When will all restrictions be lifted? The UK has been gradually lifting its Covid-19 restrictions in tandem with its vaccine roll out. Restarting international travel on May 17 is part of Step 3 of England’s lockdown easing, which also includes reopening indoor venues like museums and holiday accommodation including hotels. England’s Covid-19 roadmap initially pinpointed June 21, 2021 as the date in which all Covid-19 restrictions could be lifted. Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland have not bookmarked a specific date for the ending of their respective restrictions. The June 21 date has always been TBC, and the UK government has been keen to emphasize that it’s not set in stone. There are currently concerns about a new Covid-19 variant originating from India, now circulating in the UK. It’s unknown when the traffic light system will be lifted, but official guidance says travel restrictions will be reviewed on June 28, and again no later than July 31 and October 1, 2021. Plus, it’s a two-way thing — even if restrictions were to end in the UK, other countries may maintain limitations on UK visitors. CNN’s Francesca Street, Maureen O’Hare and Barry Neild contributed to this report. Source link Orbem News #rules #Travel

Hello shipmate! Travelling flutist here! I assume tumblr decided not to show my previous asks, so boo :/ I talked about my cat so it obviously prefers dogs or what! I need to travel to Greece because I studied ancient greek and latin at my high school and I want to see what that all was about! Any non crowded places? Also I hope you are alright and I wish you 2018 full of happiness, singing and travelling (and hopefully some great Hook/KnightRook stuff) Lots of Christmas love! I love your blog!
:D :D :D :D
Nope, Tumblr didn’t eat it. I was just too lazy busy and wanted to give it some thought and then totally forgot about it, I’m so sorry!
Previous asks, though? I only have this one.
I’m just gonna answer them both now, under a cut because wow long and pics :)
Soooo most popular ancient places are crowded... I mean, Acropolis and its museum in Athens, Knossos in Crete, the Ancient Stadium of Olympia (I think?)... though the times I’ve visited Acropolis and Knossos, they weren’t terribly crowded. I waited for a few minutes in the queue to enter Knossos, but from what I remember once I went in it was okay, and I also hate too crowded places.
Athens is a bit chaotic with population, but I think the transportation is good for central and “important” places, even though it may be a little crowded. You can even put your destination on Google maps and you’ll find suggestions on which buses and subway lines to use for almost anywhere you want to go.
Again, I’m saying this from the perspective of someone who literally grew up visiting archaelogical museums and places and now is sick and tired of them, but I think that Acropolis and its museum, along with the whole surrounding place (Plaka) would be a great destination. The museum is brand-new, very informative, great looking inside and outside and fully air-conditioned (important!).
In Athens there are also subway stations where they have small exhibitions of ancient stuff they found while digging for the subway. One of them is Syntagma, the most central one. Reaching Acropolis and the museum is very easy if you take the subway to there.
Plus they’ll all be in Athens, the capital city, so you’ll get the most tourist info possible for any place in Greece and the most locals who speak English.
It’s so weird for me to see non-native Greek speakers know Ancient Greek! I mean, it’s a language I myself gave up after three or four years of school (when we started irregular verbs... God why must this be a thing in every damn language), and my mother tongue is Greek. So I can’t imagine how hard it must be for all of you, to get used to all these vocabulary and alphabet and grammar rules.
However there will definitely be a lot of selfie people, mostly tourists. I’m not sure you can avoid those easily, especially if we’re talking about “important” ancient stuff. If you avoid high tourist season (mid-summer) you’ll avoid some tourists - and most of the heat! Sea-level places in Greece during summer are pretty much insufferable, especially for a city with so little green and so many cars as Athens is.
Then there’s Thessaloniki, the second biggest city in Greece. I personally like it better than Athens, it looks much more beautiful and taken care of than Athens looks like.
That’s Aristotelous square, the most central square in the city.
There’s also the famous “Arch of Galerius” (everyone just calls it Kamara, they’ll all know to guide you to it)
and an ancient church called Rotonda which I think you can visit normally? @jollysailorswan is from there, perhaps you can enlighten us? :P
Public transport in Thessaloniki though is not as “peaceful” as in Athens... the buses are convenient and can take you pretty much everywhere, but they are ridiculously crowded and there’s no subway. They’re pretty cheap, though. Any transport in Athens costs about 1.40 euro (one ticket, valid to anywhere for 90 minutes) and in Thessaloniki a single ride to anywhere costs about 1 euro.
Note that both Athens and Thessaloniki are very crowded and also full of people who want to be heard no matter what... which unfortunately means there’s a possibility you’ll get stuff like this
if not angry (and even sometimes pretty violent) marches around the city. Ermou Street in the center of Athens is one usually to fall victim to such attacks. Also strikes for local buses can be a problem. Not an everyday thing, but just a heads-up.
Now I can’t really think of places that won’t be crowded... there’s Santorini with the typical Cycladic architecture and mostly rock instead of long green fields.
Though that’s the same in most islands of the Cyclades... Mykonos (known for being LGBTQ friendly, btw) and Ios are very loud and full of bars and nightclubs, for sure, if you want to avoid those... but Santorini would be also worth it for a trek up its volcano, if you’re up for it! It also has a museum.
That picture on the left was on the front of our history book in 4th grade :)
And of course, the windmills that are the “trademark” of Cyclades, along with the white-blue architecture.
You can reach it either by plane or by ship (about 5 hours or so) from Athens.
I’m trying to remember about places I’ve been in... Nafplio is nice too. It was the first capital city before it got changed to Athens, and it’s only about two hours by bus from Athens.
It has a beautiful old town and the Palamidi fortress that once served as a prison for one of the most renowned rebels of the Greek Revolutionary war (it’s history’s favourite subject here and I know a shit ton about it and everyone talks about it like it’s the best thing that ever happened, don’t judge). You’ll also see the whole Nafplio from above there!
The ancient theatre of Epidaurus is also close by.
Mycenae too.
Halfway from Athens to there is the Isthmus of Corinthos, I’m honestly not sure what there is to see but there’s the bridge connecting the two big parts of Greece and the opportunity to go bungee jumping, if you’re into it.
Then there’s Monemvasia, about 4 hours from Athens...
You can also visit the Meteora monasteries with a bus from the town below, Kalampaka.
Also a look of those mountains with your own eyes from Kalampaka is a pretty nice sight.
Kalampaka is the only place mentioned here you can also reach by train(highly recommended since it usually costs half the bus’s fare and it’s way more comfortable, with WC and a bar and the ability to walk and stretch your feet) from Athens (about 6 hours) or Thessaloniki (about 4 hours). We always drive by this town when I take the bus back to my hometown, but I always stare at those mountains. They never cease to catch my attention :)
Of course, there’s also Preveza.
It’s a little town with its fair share of nightclubs and quiet places, lots of souvenir shops and a beautiful old town to walk through. It has some great beaches close by (Kyani Akti is one) and an old fortress called Pantokratoras, that sometimes hosts concerts and stuff...
There’s also Nikopolis, and ancient town and theatre, but I don’t remember if there’s also a museum open nowadays.
I’m very biased with this town because I have relatives there, and I used to go every summer and they had a car so transportation wasn’t a thing. I don’t think I remember seeing public trasport buses there... But it’s a relatively quiet (and cheap, excluding the bus fare to go there from Athens or Thessaloniki) place.
I mean, I wish I had the money to visit all those places above on my own. Sometimes I think what a pity it is, that simple places like Preveza can be so nice to visit and see some of the everyday life of Greek people, but it can also be hard to reach for tourists - you have to take this bus, and it’ll cost a lot, and there’s no guarantee people will speak English.
If you’d ask me for something specific that won’t cost too much, I’d recommend you visit Athens (even for one day) for Acropolis and the museum, and then take a bus to Nafplio. Stay there for a couple of days and visit Palamidi (maybe - you’ll either need a car or walk up the almost 900 steps to there, and the entrance is 8 euros, 4 if you’re a student from the E.U.) and the Epidaurus theatre (12 euros, 6 if you’re a student outside E.U and free if you’re a student from the E.U.) and maybe Mycenae (same ticket prices with Epidaurus), then go back to Athens to catch your plane.
On March 6th, April 18th, May 18th, on the last weekend of September, on October 28th and every first Sunday of the months November to March the entrance is free for all for both Epidaurus and Mycenae.
A two-way ticket for Athens - Nafplio is 23 euros, a two-way ticket for Nafplio - Epidaurus is 8.40 euros (the ride lasts 45 minutes), and a two-way ticket for Nafplio - Mycenae is 6.40 euros (also 45 minutes).
In Athens there are two Bus Stations (and it makes my blood boil because I don’t know why they’re different and I always mix them up), so make sure you go to the Kifisos Bus Station for Nafplio. Though tell me to check it again if you do book this trip, just to make sure it’s correct XD
Generally it’s very easy for me to find bus fare prices and info. All fares have standard prices but sadly most websites are only in Greek, so if there’s anything (even besides bus fares) you want me to search, I’d be willing to :)
And WOW I rambled :P I hope you’re getting some good ideas for your travels.
Thank you for your wishes! I also wish you great holidays and a lovely new year with your loved ones and your lovely cat (tell him I love him!) :*

I do not think that people could not be treated worse, ”says Óscar Prieto, a 48-year-old Leon freelance. He complains about the harsh conditions in which he works, in which even something as basic as accessing the toilets of a service area was until recently a luxury. Since Monday, he has had his four trucks stopped and has fired half of the employees.
The same thing happens to Jota, who prefers not to be identified, with half of his fleet of 40 trailers. Of 44 workers, it maintains 35. “To a certain extent, I have to give thanks because I continue to have trucks running despite the fact that a third of my clients have closed,” explains this 57-year-old businessman specialized in food who works for large areas such as Carrefour and Mercadona, at full capacity, but also for fast food restaurant chains, schools and residences. There the invoicing will collapse in dry. “We are pulling funds. The danger is that we are at the end of the month with a terrible lack of liquidity, “he warns. The Government says that it will guarantee 80% of the loans to affected companies, SMEs and self-employed workers. But nobody trusts it.
In Spain there are just over 400,000 drivers and more than 95% of companies have five vehicles or less. 90% of goods are transported by road, in a sector that generated more than 18,000 million in 2019. This dependence on asphalt, with more than 4,000 deaths and 56,000 infected by Covid-19, makes truckers the vital links and anonymous from the supply network. The Government has authorized two people to go in the cabin to relay or load and unload tasks. Mechanic shops are ordered not to open to the general public, only to trucks and delivery vans to ensure the flow of goods. “We are absolutely essential. Health is essential but if we do not take supplies everything stops, “claims Julio Villaescusa, president of the National Federation of Transport Associations of Spain (Fenadismer). The rules for driving and rest times in the transport of goods have been relaxed, although they cannot exceed 56 hours behind the wheel a week or 90 biweekly. Every four and a half hours a 45-minute break is mandatory. Meanwhile, heavy vehicle traffic already accounts for 55.76% of long journeys route: 221,338 of 396,927 Since the entry into force of the state of alarm, long-distance journeys have fallen by 61.61%, according to the latest data, on Wednesday, from the General Directorate of Traffic (DGT). trucks, the decrease was 19.68% after a peak of 40% last Sunday.
“Now a lot of blablablah, but we are the same unfortunates who annoy people on the holidays at Easter and the departures of the weekend,” E. 53, who also asked for anonymity, snorted on the route Bilbao- Algeciras in 24 hours. And start again: “I have colleagues who do not know if they come or go. Although taking away the food, who are working hard because of the panic of people to run out of food at home, the rest it's a drama. No activity. ” Even so, it could be said that E. was on one of his best days: “It is the first day that I have been given a hot dish, a stew! I have taken it in the truck although I have paid the same as if I had been sitting in the dining room. “But he did not forget how throughout the past week he chained service areas that were not serving him. Despite contravening the royal decree of the state alarm, which establishes the adoption of “the necessary measures to guarantee the food supply”. “Because we cannot guarantee hygiene and cleanliness, the services will remain closed for greater evils,” is the sign that Manuel López, a 42-year-old trucker who operates on the plateau, recites. “It was time to refuel and that's it. And to see from the cabin how a Civil Guard patrol arrived and piss you off because they did open the door to the toilets. Solution? Well, shit in the middle of the field, “he still chews the words.
But in exceptional times not only misery arises. Also exemplary behaviors. Like the one at the El Hacho restaurant, on the A-92, near Lora de Estepa (Seville). Given the difficulties in attending to the carriers in the early stages of the crisis, their owners decided to put water, soft drinks, juices, sweets, thermos of coffee and milk in a van outside … And with the following message: “We do not accept money ” A gesture that has gone viral after the video of a Transportes La Murciana driver. “When it all started we had to close the business but truckers began to come calling to the windows, asking us to pour them a coffee … It was heartbreaking. They are alone, they do not have many kilometers to stop! They do not deserve this situation, are the ones that are making the country work, “says Jessica Borrego, one of the owners. “We are with the truckers. This fight belongs to everyone, “is the legend, on one of the hanging posters, which has become one of the flags of road professionals.
After the chaos of last week, the Government and communities have reacted to the avalanche of transporters who demanded decent attention. Digestive problems, bone and diabetes among veterans are common after years of stress to reach the destination, eating every day in a place … The Official State Gazette (BOE) published on Wednesday a provision of the Ministry of Transport by which The opening of 360 tourist accommodation is regulated, which will be kept closed to the general public but must serve workers in vital sectors during the health emergency. Specifically, it is established that “professional freight transporters may be allowed access to cleaning and restoration facilities and services, even if they are not housed.”
“The administration is ten days late. There is a lot of helplessness in everything that is not big centers like Madrid, Barcelona, Valencia or Zaragoza, especially on the routes of the most depressed and depopulated areas,” says Jorge Serrano, area coordinator of transport of the National Federation of Autonomous Workers (ATA).
The uncertainty that really weighs is the economic survival in a sector with many subcontractors. The first package of guarantees that the Executive has launched this week, of 20,000 million euros, will have retroactive effect from March 18. But still the truckers don't believe it. They feel left out. Skepticism is complete. “We are a sector that usually has access to very little aid. For us it is a more difficult point than for the rest, a truck is not like a property. They are worth a lot of money and there are more risks, they are machines that depreciate relatively quickly. When you go through the risk studies area of a bank, let's say that transport companies are never welcome, “says Serrano. “Ask any bank to see what there is and they tell you that there is nothing for small businesses,” ditch Prieto. As an example of his daily distress, he highlights that at the beginning of the week he was offered to carry a load from Madrid to the south of Valencia, a distance of almost 400 kilometers, for 200 euros. “Only the one way, when it should be charged 1.10 euros per kilometer to cover fuel costs, the different insurance … And if you do not have cargo for the return is your fucking problem ” He said no. “They say that bad of many, epidemic. No consolation for fools. Well there is a pandemic … Well, this week I am at least at home, “Prieto strives to be optimistic.

Do You Spend The Night In Jail For A DUI?
It is important to get a DUI lawyer after being pulled over and accused of driving drunk. This is because there are serious penalties that an attorney of this type should help you avoid. Find out some of the most common consequences for drunk driving that you just may avoid by hiring a legal representative.
The most commonly feared penalty is time in jail. You may still be able to avoid this if this is your first charge and you have an otherwise clean record. However, many states are cracking down and insisting that drivers spend at least a few days in jail, and you may even get a month or so, depending on the circumstances. If you wish to avoid this, you need to hire a DUI lawyer fast. Keep in mind that if you have to spend time in jail, you could end up losing your job, so this is more serious than just spending a few nights somewhere you do not want to be.
Of course, the fines are usually more than most people can easily afford. They range from about $500 to $5000, depending on your blood alcohol level, the state you live in, and whether this was your first offense or your third. Either way, you should not have to pay the maximum fines, especially if you simply cannot afford it. You owe it to yourself, your family, and your bank account to reduce the fines you end up having to pay. Considering that the fines go to different entities, such as the court and special funds set up by the state, it is not unusual to at least reduce some of them with a DUI lawyer.
Another common penalty is license suspension. You may think about how this will initially affect you. It means you will not be able to go to your friend’s house, the bar, or the mall. But it also means you cannot go to work or school on your own, as you need to find a ride or take public transport. You may be able to get a conditional license that lets you drive to work or school, but this depends on your state and is not always available. Even with it, though, you drive to the grocery store when you need to, meaning that it is still an inconvenience that you do not want. Of course, hiring a DUI lawyer will not guarantee that you can get out of the charges. But this will give you the best chance of dismissing the serious consequences you face. So the result is that an attorney is often worth your money.
Daily, many people are arrested for driving under the influence. For some reason, people feel that even though they have consumed alcohol or ingested drugs, their mental state remains at its fullest capacity. They even dare to drive thinking that luck will be on their side and by some miracle, will manage to reach their destination without being arrested. Many times they are proved wrong and are arrested committing their crime.
Well, if you happen to get caught committing your crime, the below is what you should expect to happen.
1. 2 Days 1 Night free stay in jail When you get pulled over and arrested for a DUI, you will end up staying at least one night in jail, even though it is your first offense.

Keeping your car at the impound lot will not be free. In order to get your car out, there are fees that you will need to pay.
2. DMV Hearing In order to save your license, you will need to hire a DUI lawyer prior to this hearing. Within 10 days of your arrest, you will have to undergo a hearing to determine the state of your license. The law varies from state to state but you should know that you could lose your license because you neglected to take a cab or appoint a designated driver.
3. Court Dates You will definitely have to appear in court as the judge will need to hear both sides of what had happened. What would happen next is you will get your chance to tell your story, the arresting officer will tell his story and the dashboard camera will also tell its story if necessary. If you are found to be guilty, and this is not your first offense, you are looking at spending some time in jail. Your driving license too could get revoked, either permanently or for an extended amount of time. If your offense was not serious and no one was injured or killed, then the punishment you will receive should be able to make sure that you do not appear before the court again. These punishments include, DUI School, Fines, Jail or Community Service.
4. Consequences of a DUI After your conviction, you will find it hard to get affordable insurance and you will need special insurance for DUI drivers. Finding a job too will be a problem as employers tend to hire those who are less of a risk.
Basically, after being arrested and convicted for a DUI, your mobility, your job opportunity and other aspects of life will be affected for many years to come. At the time, you might think that this is a small matter but after a while, you will realize that you will be derived of opportunities because of one mistake.

Do You Spend The Night In Jail For A DUI?
It is important to get a DUI lawyer after being pulled over and accused of driving drunk. This is because there are serious penalties that an attorney of this type should help you avoid. Find out some of the most common consequences for drunk driving that you just may avoid by hiring a legal representative.

The most commonly feared penalty is time in jail. You may still be able to avoid this if this is your first charge and you have an otherwise clean record. However, many states are cracking down and insisting that drivers spend at least a few days in jail, and you may even get a month or so, depending on the circumstances. If you wish to avoid this, you need to hire a DUI lawyer fast. Keep in mind that if you have to spend time in jail, you could end up losing your job, so this is more serious than just spending a few nights somewhere you do not want to be.
Of course, the fines are usually more than most people can easily afford. They range from about $500 to $5000, depending on your blood alcohol level, the state you live in, and whether this was your first offense or your third. Either way, you should not have to pay the maximum fines, especially if you simply cannot afford it. You owe it to yourself, your family, and your bank account to reduce the fines you end up having to pay. Considering that the fines go to different entities, such as the court and special funds set up by the state, it is not unusual to at least reduce some of them with a DUI lawyer.
Another common penalty is license suspension. You may think about how this will initially affect you. It means you will not be able to go to your friend’s house, the bar, or the mall. But it also means you cannot go to work or school on your own, as you need to find a ride or take public transport. You may be able to get a conditional license that lets you drive to work or school, but this depends on your state and is not always available. Even with it, though, you drive to the grocery store when you need to, meaning that it is still an inconvenience that you do not want. Of course, hiring a DUI lawyer will not guarantee that you can get out of the charges. But this will give you the best chance of dismissing the serious consequences you face. So the result is that an attorney is often worth your money.

Daily, many people are arrested for driving under the influence. For some reason, people feel that even though they have consumed alcohol or ingested drugs, their mental state remains at its fullest capacity. They even dare to drive thinking that luck will be on their side and by some miracle, will manage to reach their destination without being arrested. Many times they are proved wrong and are arrested committing their crime.
Well, if you happen to get caught committing your crime, the below is what you should expect to happen.
1. 2 Days 1 Night free stay in jail When you get pulled over and arrested for a DUI, you will end up staying at least one night in jail, even though it is your first offense. Your car too will get a free nights stay at the local impound lot, but when you are arrested, your mental capacity has been compromised, so you really would not remember about your car. Keeping your car at the impound lot will not be free. In order to get your car out, there are fees that you will need to pay.

2. DMV Hearing In order to save your license, you will need to hire a DUI lawyer prior to this hearing. Within 10 days of your arrest, you will have to undergo a hearing to determine the state of your license. The law varies from state to state but you should know that you could lose your license because you neglected to take a cab or appoint a designated driver.
