Thank you Dana for such a great little vlog. I have been going to Crete for many years as my cousin has lived on the island for 20+ years. It is so nice to see other people's take on my happy place. Chania really is a special place if one is interested in architecture, food & drink.

The largest island in Greece, Crete is a diverse and vibrant land packed with ancient ruins, buzzing cities and breathtaking beaches. Many people come here for the sun, sea and sand yet the best things to do in Crete include much more than the standard package vacation

FYI, you stated Elafonisi has the only sandy beach in Crete but actually in Chania (the very city you're in) the beach is sandy for miles and miles and miles. You guys were staying in Old Town but if you just go 5 mins, 10, mins, 25 mins you have nothing but sandy beaches.

Omg loved as always… but let me tell you I was so excited to see that you had the baklava. Oh my God it looked so good and I’m sure it tasted even better.What excited me more if I ever go are those sweets you bought because I’m a huge sweets fanatic. Crete is definitely a must go destination. I had read somewhere and seen other vlogs that have said the same thing you stated that it is incredibly affordable. Which is definitely a huge incentive.

Raki in Turkey is more similar to Ouzo in Greece and has a aniseed taste similar to Sambuca etc.. The raki in Crete is totally different in taste ,it's made from the pomace of grapes after harvesting . Just the name is the same but a different drink .
