Travelling
Sorry I haven’t been around for a while. I am writing this post as some of you are e-mailing me, wondering why I am not around. Thank you all for asking. First of all my husband and I went on vacations for a few days. We went to Evia, which is an island very close [...]
I am really disappointed that I missed the train for Germany, as I was planning to participate but I lost track of the time, so my Pigs in a blanket, will have to wait before I lose another train and I am now heading right away to Paris. Paris is one of the few cities [...]

Several days ago, we finally decided to take the trip to Thessaloniki, after postponing it a couple of times due to bad weather. This trip was for us like a travel we have been wanting to make over the past years but always something happened that we kept postponing it. So this was an opportunity [...]
