Once again is that time of the year, when the hot weather makes me lazy, the cool nights make me want to stay out just a bit longer and I know that holidays are just around the corner and I just can’t wait ! I’m definitely in a ‘holiday mode’ and this year I’m so excited of going back to Greece, visiting my family and seeing my friends, taking long walks in Athens and going camping in the islands. However, until that day comes I have some more days of work and many ways to keep myself inspired !
When I think about holiday or travel inspiration, beyond Instagram and Pinterest, I think about my favourite Travel Blogs. That’s where you get to read about real experiences of people who love exploring the world and even more they love to share their stories, photos and tips with the rest of us. That’s why I thought this month instead of one ‘Blog of the Month’ i want to share my favourite Travel Blogs with you, hoping you will get inspired by them as much as I am!
