A truth spoken before its time is dangerous… ~ Greek Proverb HE SAID... Today we were travelling southeast from Kalambaka to Delphi. We woke early and headed down to Hotel Alexiou’s stark dining area, where I enjoyed a fairly basic breakfast of yoghurt and muesli, bread and jam, and tea and juice. We checked out around 9am and settled into a very comfy and roomy ... read more

This blog documents the feeding of our travel addiction - one country at a time. Travel is an essential part of our life, and we'll continue to travel until our addiction wanes (which probably won't be in this lifetime)! The more we travel, the more we see; and the more we see, the more we understand that we know so little - which is a brilliant thing. We love the little corner of south eastern Australia we call home, but we are at our happiest when throwing ourselves into a new adventure and experiencing new cultures.

Haha yes 'fatigue' does happen from time to time... we certainly get 'temple fatigue' in Asia and 'cathedral fatigue' in Europe! Amazingly, I didn't really get 'ruin fatigue' in Greece, and that's probably because we only visited key ruins around the country and were very picky about which ruins and museums we visited in Athens. Although I have to admit, we visited fewer and fewer Orthodox churches as the trip went on - they all started looking the same on the inside :)
