Hi everyone! My husband is Greek and I'll be visiting his family for a few days during Easter. What's something nice I can bring? Do you recommend something for the home like a vase? Or food?

do you recommend getting travel packages with pre set activities and tour guides? or exploring the island on your own? thanks so much!! it's so nice to hear form someone who knows the island well

It's truly a shame....any tips from your tour guide days though?

It's probably one of the most beautiful subways I've seen!! There's still many sculptures and excavations today, it's so nice to see a part of history in everyday life. If you're not using the subway to get around, you should at least check it out for the artifacts.

It depends where you're staying, and where you want to go. If you're staying in the old city, then all of the restaurants and stores are very close by and you won't need a car. Good luck!

The safest places in Greece are usually smaller islands. Although, these islands don't have very much security or police… so that's also something to think about.

I have always loved the architecture in Santorini, but I never knew exactly why the houses are white and blue, and why they aren't like that on other islands or the mainland. Does anyone know?

I am six months pregnant and I'm married to a Greek guy and we've been having lots of discussion about Godparents. I'm not Greek so I don't know too much about Godparents and I've never had any. Could anyone give me some advice on how to choose Godparents? I’m so lost!!

Trust me, I know exactly how you feel becuase I am from Canada. It's pretty hard to get that same flavour, because you don’t have charcoal but you can definitely char your meat on a pan and then transferred to the oven. That's how I like to cook my chicken. Another thing you can do is skewer the...

hey everyone! My husband is Greek and we're going to be celebrating Greek Easter this year and I wanted to know if there are any trendy or cool ways to die a Greek Easter eggs. I want to add my own twist and get the kids involved too. Drop pics if you have them!!

My Greek husband LOVES history and we’re putting together an itinerary for our trip to Athens, any tips? He loves ancient history and modern history, so it doesn’t need to be about mythology and architecture (I know Athens is really popular for that).
