The Greeks are wise, as these Greek quotes will show you. They’re also really funny.
When I think of Greece, I think of dreamy islands and brightly blue-painted doors. I didn’t think of road-tripping.
But now, having done it, I highly recommend it. Leaving Athens, our first stop was Meteora, home to adventure-seeking monks. That was followed by several days in Epirus. It’s a mountainous region in northwestern Greece that is home to over 2000km of hiking trails and bears! Yes, bears in Greece!
Epirus is famous for its mountain villages. Kallarytes, a village on a mountainside, consisting of just 15 houses was one of my favorites! The beautiful landscapes truly highlight the untouched natural environment that is enjoyed by those inhabiting the traditional villages in Greek Epirus.
Rather than returning the same way, we headed south, since no trip to Greece is complete without a visit to the crystal blue waters that Greece is so famous for – that’s where Parga comes in!
Parga, Greece is a beautiful town in the western part of the country, in Epirus. A popular destination for summer holidays as it is surrounded by both lush greenery and the cobalt sea, it boasts a unique natural setting.
Now a road trip through the impressive landscape of Northern Epirus wouldn’t be complete without some tunes, which I’ll leave to you, but I’ve got something even better for ya. Greek quotes, most from our very knowledgeable and hilarious guide Sophia.
As travelers know, connecting with locals and really getting a feel for a place enhances travel so much more than just sightseeing.
These Greek quotes will give you a feel for the real Greece and for how Greeks think.
WARNING! You’ll never be able to say It’s all Greek to me again! OPA!
