Just under 20km as the crow flies from Skiathos is the almost twice as large island of Skopelos, which - like Skiathos - served as the backdrop for the musical comedy 'Mamma mia'...

It continued today after all. After a few kilometers drive, we reached the Agnundos Monastery. The idyllic, castle-like monastery was built in the 11th century. There are no...

Full boat + empty water = departure This is a simple and straightforward equation. So this morning, after breakfast, we reluctantly left the dream bay and headed towards...

Hello everyone! We made it and now we're in the warmth! This morning the alarm clock rang at 8 o'clock and we started slowly packing our stuff. Since we were flying to a warm...

After what felt like an eternity, the day of the return flight had arrived. It seemed as though we had been here forever. But I didn't want to go home... Malia Since our flight...

Unfortunately, today didn't start very well. I woke up in the early morning hours feeling nauseous and dizzy, and I didn't feel well at all today. So we stayed in bed a little...

Through the Lasithi Plateau. Once again setting off without breakfast. But it went really well. It's just a plain, where a North German feels right at home. I still haven't...

My longest tour so far, because I had to go shopping. I needed food for the way because the supply situation is a bit uncertain on the next stages. It makes about 6 km detour,...
