#Greece enters the contest by pretending she records a tik tok-clip. Not sure Im a fan.
The song is ratcher catchy with that steady beat, and the "ta, ta, ta"-section has a good groove, but the song feels a bit like a hot mess...? Ah well.
Nestled amidst the dramatic landscape of Meteora, a monastery rises majestically atop sheer cliffs, a marvel of architectural ingenuity seamlessly integrated with the rugged terrain, showcasing the mastery of adapting structures to nature's formidable challenges.
Honestly, our two-day stopover in Patmos was a lucky coincidence that came about through a name mix-up 😂 patmos, piraeus... 🧏♀️ I don't know... thanks to my legastenic brain and the stressy situation at the ferry ticket office 🤷♀️
The ferry crossing was already amazing 🤩, but when we arrived in Patmos and were warmly welcomed at the vegan restaurant 'Pernera' with our loaded bicycles, we were very happy about this confusion 🥰 !
Sidenote: The neighboring shop initially wanted to send us away and said we should park our bikes in the parking lot at the harbor... yea of course... not!
In the beautiful 'Pernera', we enjoyed a vegan and gluten-free menu, prepared with love from organic and local ingredients 🫠. And besides the delicious food, our souls were nourished by the inspiring and motivating conversations we had with the people there 🫶
The search for a campground in the picturesque small bays was a bit challenging. Either the beach was too narrow for a tent or private. Fortunately, it was still off-season, and we were able to set up our inner tent in the bay 'Kampos Beach' next to the beach bar, as the beach taverns and sunbed rentals were not yet active.
#Greece’s Navy extended a series of exercises aimed at preventing tankers from transferring Russian oil just miles off its coastline.
The navy said in a notice that it will be conducting exercises until May 19 in the #Laconian Gulf, an expanse of water that’s become well-known in the oil market as a location for Russian oil switching. It had been due to finish on May 9.
After we stopped at the Islands Leros and Lipsi we reached our destination, the island Patmos. The ferryride in total was 5h. We enjoyed it a lot, especially because we could see all these incredibly nice islands (at least the harbour vilages). #traveling#greece#islands#patmos
The #US and most #EU nations will boycott a #Kremlin ceremony to swear in Vladimir #Putin for a new six-year term as president on Tuesday, but #France and some other EU states were expected to send an envoy despite a plea by #Kyiv.
The varying diplomatic response by the Western powers underscored differences over how to handle the Russian leader more than two years after he launched a full-scale invasion of #Ukraine.
