Back in Greece

So we're back in Greece! We passed Kakavia border crossing ( quite quick as they only check your passport and your vehicle registration card)and found a great stop in Vikos Aoos National Park.
 It is a part of Pindus mountain range where we have been at the beginning of our Greek holiday ( see the post about Kipoi).But this time we're on the opposite side. We stopped close to the Voivodatis river. 
This piece of the river is very popular for rafting and it has a nice 3 km walk along it. The sun was 🌟 and in total we did 12 km trekking with ups and downs so our legs are killing us🤣. 
The water was transparent and look at the colour, shame it wasn't hot enough for a dip.
We stayed for 2 nights and it was so peaceful to sleep with an undertone of flowing river. Tomorrow next destination Chalkidiki peninsula, as we never been to this part of Greece.

Meravigliosa!Wow! Where to start! So far one of my preferred places in our travels. Franco has been here few times before. But I didn't expect it to be so beautiful! It has this special atmosphere maybe because it's very small roughly 20km X 20 km. It's four of us, Franco and I, Liz our friend that often goes on holidays with us and Davide that stays here 6 months a year but comes from Travo which is close to where we all live. It's always great to have an insider that knows all the stuff about the island 🙂 They all spearfish so we have fish every day!!There's only one town on the island- Carloforte with it's majestic ficus trees in the main square. The town has everything you need with restaurants, supermarkets and bars.And obviously is very lively so if you want to have fun you go to the city and if you want to have peace you can find a quiet beach with few people at this time of the year  .The rest are all the ...

Discovering The Island

Image
Last 3 weeks has flyed by. Time goes quickly when you're in a good company 🙂. We had enough time to discover stories between the island, meet new friends and get bored with the same places🤣. Being on the island limits moving around, especially in camper because there aren't a lot of roads suitable for camper but we discovered them by bike. Many people that come to San Pietro for at least 20 years do notice that since the TV series L' Isola di Pietro the place boomed with tourism and not in the good way.  ( the house that was the main set of the series) The special atmosphere has gone. For me it was the first time and I loved it, but don't think I would like to be here in August when the amount of people exceeds the island capacities. There are some sad stories of abandoned places and vandalism by local youth which is quite difficult to understand.On the photo you can see this huge hotel complex that was never completed and now is abandoned and vandalized. ...
