The Essential Info Guide to getting around the Greek Islands

June 26, 2015

Greek islands are a popular summer destination and it’s easy to understand why: the sea, the sun, the whitewashed villages, the delicious food! Pins like this help as well, right? But when the time comes to sit down and actually plan a trip to the Greek Islands, logistic questions arise: which islands to choose when it’s the ideal period to visit, how do I get there and so on. I come across these questions ever so often so I decided to tackle them one by one: 1) When is it the ideal time to visit the Greek Islands? If you…

Alden & Harlow, Harvard Square

June 4, 2015

Alden & Harlow is probably one of my favorite restaurants around Boston. It is located on Brattle street just around the corner from Harvard Square! The first time I visited Alden & Harlow was last year for brunch! It took me a while to discover the restaurant, despite the fact that I frequented Harvard Square, since it is located below street level. I was a newbie in Boston, but I had read that it is an up and coming restaurant in town (by now it is a well established one), known for its American cuisine and locally sourced ingredients. I was charmed by the restaurant’s…

A walk around Greenwich Village, NYC

May 29, 2015

Today I want to introduce you to my favorite neighborhood in New York City: Greenwich Village. As per Wikipedia “Greenwich Village has been known as an artists’ haven, the Bohemian capital, the cradle of the modern LGBT movement, and the East Coast birthplace of both the Beat and ’60s counterculture movements.” Needless to say that I didn’t know any of these when I visited Greenwich Village 5 years ago, but it stole my heart! Greenwich Village has lots to explore: shopping streets, interesting architecture, Universities and Sex and the City spots! Need I say more? Today I’m taking you on a little tour in the Village…

Which Greek Island is ideal for you?

May 7, 2015

Updated on April, 2019 Did you know that Greece has about 6000 islands? Yes indeed. But from those islands only around 200 are inhabited! I get questioned a lot of times about which Greek island one should visit, which honestly isn’t a question that is answered easily, because not all of them are the same and not all people have the same tastes! In this post I *tried* as hard as I could to put on a mini guide on which island would suit you better depending on your preferences. If you like beautiful scenery: Santorini, Milos, Hydra Photos of Santorini…

I love New York!

May 4, 2015

That photo shoot should have taken place in New York in order to match the t-shirt. But it happened in Cambridge, MA next to the Charles River and across from Harvard Business School (which you can see in a photo in the background). Now, this t-shirt is the only souvenir t-shirt I own. My souvenir collection is usually about magnets and shot glasses. For the latter I have a cool display that my uncle made for me. Needless to say that it is already full!! But t-shirts? Never.I find them too tacky and not well made. That is not the case…
