    These are all great reasons to get the Athens. But for me, the history and culture of Greece and Greek mythology is the magnet that will draw me there. Of course, these are all valid reasons and each is the icing on the cake.

    I asked my girlfriend where she wants to celebrate her 26th birthday, and I guess she already read this article because she answered Southern Europe.

    Can you suggest a local food that we could try? A trip couldn’t be a complete journey without a taste of a local dish or snack!

      I am working at night. I hate sunset actually it is my constant reminder that I have to leave home and go to work. I don’t want to go to Santorini then.

        Vacation is always pricey. If you want to enjoy your vacation, your budget should be much.
