The loveliest picture from Greece is the mountainous countryside of Peloponnese, often also with sea view.

It is like city life moves to Halkidiki, thousands of people flock to their favourite haunts, beach bars burst with vivacity and good humour and wonderful memories of unforgettable, carefree holidays are forged.

I visited Greece for the first time this autumn. I spent two weeks in Athens, and a few days in Macedonia.

Being a Greek expatriate living in dark and frozen Finland for 12 years, Greece is my ultimate summer destination
