Summer in my opinion is 100% related to Greece. I cannot think of any other place that smells like summer more than our beautiful country. I love travelling a lot and I have to admit that a few times I chose other countries to spend my summer vacations… I had a great time but it was not the same.
Greece besides the incredible turquoise waters, composes the perfect scenery with amazing scents and colours. Fig, geranium, trees, salt, even the hot weather has its own unique scent... The shades of blue make a contrast with the white houses -especially in greek islands- with bougainvilleas adding a touch of colour. An ideal summery scenery.
Nights are soft with the distinctive scent of the evening primrose, so quiet and peaceful. There is nothing better than relaxing in a yard under the starry night, listening to the crickets. It is really so easy to get lost in moments like this.
For all those reasons it is worth waiting for the summer, even when it’s not your favourite season of the year…
