Fellow adventurers, gather ye round as I share a tale of exploration, entrepreneurship, and the pursuit of lifelong dreams… I first hit the road at the age of nineteen. I had very little money and so I opted for India… I was able to get a two year visa and figured this would save me a load of money as I could just stay in India, and figure life out, whilst travelling on a budget of just $10 a day.  I found myself utterly overwhelmed and constantly pushed out of my comfort zone. I sometimes slept in guesthouses, but often I would Couchsurf and just as often I would camp in my trusty tent o ..read more

Greece is one of my favorite destinations in Europe, no doubt about it. This spectacular country of 6000 islands and islets offers something for everyone, and the same goes for alternative and hippie folks, who want something different, less touristic and genuine. I’ve already wrote about my experience with Σαμοθράκη a few years ago, and this magical island, Icaria, was number one tip of almost all people we asked about what our next destination in Greece should be. Photo by Michail Tsapas on Unsplash One of the reason to do so can be it’s one of the world’s five “blue zones”, o ..read more
