We all have a list of places we want to visit as part of our bucket list, one of the top ones on my list is Greece.

The crystal clear water, peaceful beaches, and beautiful infrastructure completely blew me away and ever since then it has been my dream to one day end up in Greece.

Santorini*

Live here✌️

So funny you said in ur intro that u first fell in love with Greece when u saw Lena travel there in Sisterhood of the Traveling pants. That was the EXACT same readon why I was enticed to visit as well! I was blessed with the opportunity to go a year later after seeing the movie in 2009 for ten days :) It is absolutely breathtaking. The pictures dont do any justice to how beautiful that country and that Deep blue water really is. I hope u can mark it off ur bucket list also soon.

I'm glad to see Cyprus on the list! It's a hidden gem in the Mediterranean that is often overlooked ... Great list!

Don't need the photos. A love of Greek culture is driving me crazy since I can't go.

Is it better to bring your family or go yourself? I want to experience every corner of Sartini and my family aren't really much into traveling but spending time together.

2 and 3 are the same place

Greece is the one place I want to visit more than anywhere

Always wanted to go to Greece!!! Now even more!!😍😍

I'm on holiday in Greece right now and it is beautiful ! The island, Rhodes, is so peaceful and the locals are kind too !
