If someone asked me what my favourite colour is, I would say the colour of the Parthenon stone at sunset.   patriciaizquierdomaldonado

Amazing Athens - Monastiraki Square

The amazing thing about Athens is that you can experience ancient ruins alongside modern buildings. The Acropolis offers an amazing panorama of the Greek capital and so special at sunset! At Monastiraki Square, it’s awesome to enjoy the bars and restaurants looking out at the Acropolis!

Day Trip from Thessaloniki - Mount Olympus

In Greek mythology Mount Olympus was the home of 12 gods and the throne of thunderbolt-throwing Zeus. It’s the highest mountain in Greece standing at 2917m. From Thessaloniki, it only takes an hour to get to Litochoro, where you will find nine climbing routes to Mount Olympus.

Escape from the crowds for an (almost) private view!  

“If you go to Philopappos Hill early in the day you’ll see a 360 degree view of Athens without having to share it. You will see the Acropolis ahead, and to the south sweeping views till the Aegean sea!” - Myfoodmyhappiness

Athens - Ancient and Modern

“Hanging out in Athens at the site of the first ever Olympics,  then dipping back into modernity for a air-conditioned café and frappé. Just one of the many reasons Athens in such an incredible city!”  - charliepr1ce

This 4wd bus drove into the campsite 2 days ago. It is amazing. It parked next to me (dwarfing my van). Unfortunately I didn’t get any photos of inside (or even see inside), or any with its awning out… .

Shannon Kelly is a 27 year old journalist, writer and travel blogger who wrote lots of articles and stories about her trips around the world!

When Shannon was just 2 years old, she was diagnosed with a spinal tumor. Fortunately, the tumor could be completely removed. Nevertheless, her spinal cord was damaged in such extent that it left her completely paralyzed from her waist down.

Ever since Shannon was young, she had an adventurous spirit, a passion for nature and a huge love for animals. After graduating from high school, Shannon wanted to get out of her comfort zone and travel abroad before starting college; “I was 17, in a wheelchair, and a newbie to international travel, but I didn’t want to let any of these things stop me from having the adventure of a lifetime”, She says about the beginning of her very first trip to Costa Rica. This turned out to be such a success that she has made many more since then! If you’d like to know more about all of Shannon’s travels, I can really recommend you to read the story she wrote for HuffPost! ⬇️

Shannon soon felt that all the great experiences she had during her travels were worth sharing with the rest of the world. That’s why she started writing a blog, and it didn’t take long before some of her stories were published in various newspapers and magazines!

Many of Shannon’s articles are about her own experiences as a traveler in a wheelchair, which are packed with useful tips and tricks for people with disabilities! Nonetheless, she also wrote some great stuff for the ‘general’ traveler like sightseeing ideas and 'things to do’. If you’re interested in reading some of Shannon’s work, you can visit her website, where you’ll find a portfolio with references to everything she wrote! ⬇️

I’m so gosh darn terrible with social media, that my literal last text post was about a year ago trying to update you on Alaska pictures.‍♀️ I have lots of beautiful Alaska pictures from August 2020. I want to cry every time I look at them though. It’s bittersweet, but I find myself settling there in the near future.

Close up of a beautiful tree in its full transition of autumn.

This is me hiking the Grand Canyon with a breakfast burrito in hand, slightly intoxicated from beer on the train whilst letting a wild tarantula crawl up my arm, only to find out two seconds later that I certainly didn’t feel comfortable doing so.

My first time at the Grand Canyon. Literally took my breathe away… and made me dizzy. :)
