Christmas 2015 in Athens: What to do...


Dec 18, 2015

Visiting Athens during the holidays may seem a bit odd, thinking that Greece is a summer destination, but you couldn’t be more wrong. The Greek Capital celebrates the joy of Christmas by taking the festivities to the streets and squares of the city! This year the municipality and the Athens Organization for Culture, Sport and Youth have prepared a series of events and happenings that no one wants to miss! This year for the first time the City Council works and rallies around the city activists, wanting to stress that everyone's contribution is important, concluding that this is in a way the meaning of Christmas.

Ionian Islands under the Venetian Rule


Nov 17, 2015


When one first visits Corfu he (or she) is immediately reminded of Italy and Venice. How couldn't he, since for a period of over 400 years (1386 - 1797) Corfu, as part of the “Eptanisa” complex, belonged to the “Republic of Venice”, thus reflecting this influence in all aspects of life. The Old Towns of many of these islands, like Corfu, one of the World Heritage Sites in Greece, were built during this period, housing many of the ruling Venetian nobility who chose to settle on the islands. Unfortunately consequent earthquakes heavily damaged most of the old Venetian buildings, leaving only ruins behind them, with the exception of Corfu.

Greece can be full of Drama, Action, Adventure, Comedy, Satire, Melodrama, Disaster and Heist! And we’re talking only about films! Many directors have wanted to capture even a small part of the Greek “psyche”, either focusing on its people or its landscapes; either way it’s welcome since the one defined the other in such interweaved manners that they're inseparable.
