Hi Gabriel, me and my wife are fans of yours. We are enjoying your videos from your adventures around the world. As Greek people living in Athens we feel great that you like so much the Greek islands. If you ever get a chance though, we would like to saw you another side of Greece. The mountains of Greece, especially The Pindos and Agrafa mountains that we love hiking and which are really cool for summer holidays as well. Please, do not hesitate to contact me, if you would like to visit these wonderful remote places! Achilles

Cheers from Greece lover ✌ I would definitely want to see some Greek mountain scenery someday. I've been on the Lefka Ori and Psiloritis mountains on the Island of Crete but of course they're nothing when comparing with mountains of mainland Greece. Skiing trip to Northern Greece would be a not-so-typical holiday 😄 I think that in general, it would be worth visiting areas of Greece that aren't saturated with tourists.

@@asianfacility5682 North Carolina is the home of the Great Smokey Mountains, Mt. Mitchell (the highest peak in the eastern US), the Blue Ridge Parkway - all part of the Appalachian mountain range. The Appalachian Trail runs from Georgia to Maine and many people hike it over several months! As far as rivers, the state's rivers are relatively small. Some are: the Catawba, the Yadkin and the Roanoke. All of them are dammed to supply water for the major population areas. One river, the New River, begins in the NC mountains and goes north to join the Ohio River! I hope this helps.

And you even do close-ups of signs! Hats off! St. George is your guide! (That recommends you highly!) And his symbol is the dragon slayer. Have fun!

Hi Gabriel, Interesting Island, much bigger than the two others you were on. The churches you went to seem to have frescos but due to the fact of the age of the churches and the amount of damage, they replastered the walls covering them to restore the structure of the churches. These structures are constantly going through rebuilding because of their age. It must be very tedious because you are trying to maintain the existing structure and build around it. You must have had feta cheese in those salads, it's incredibly good.
@GabrielTravelerVideos 2 жыл бұрын
Both of the salads in this video were a local Kalymnos salad which is a little different from a Greek salad. Instead of feta cheese it has straight goat cheese. Feta is made from a mix of sheep and goat milk. Quite similar but different. I prefer the feta cheese but both salads are delicious.

Do you scuba dive? If so, I think you need to offer a trip for fellow travelers to go down under to Australia and the Great Barrier Reef. I have been one time and it is one of the best trips I have ever made. If you don't know how to dive they will teach you so you have no excuse. Lol Looking forward to tomorrow's video.

In Orthodox churches, facing the iconostation ( the partition between the altar and the main church) the middle entrance at the center is called the Ωραία Πύλη (beautiful door.) To the right one finds Christ's icon and next to it is St. John the Baptist's icon. To the left of the center door is the icon of Mary holding Jesus as a baby and next to it is the icon of the church's patron saint. The left door depicts archangel Michael and on the right door is the icon of archangel Gabriel. I n larger churches other saints fill the extra spaces. This is true for all Orthodox churches everywhere in the world.

Gabriel, I'm loving every second of your Greek videos! I developed a seriously weak spot for these islands over the past years and to me watching your vlogs in cold January is the next best thing to actually being there. However, it isn't risk-free for me, as I am now eagerly contemplating an island-hopping tour myself next summer (particularly the Dodecanese and/or North Aegean) 😀 So a tiny question if you still remember - and if it isn't too private - can you tell the approximate cost and duration of your whole trip (not including the flight into Greece) and how many islands you did?
@GabrielTravelerVideos Жыл бұрын
I don't keep track of my expenses so not sure about that, but you can travel in Greece for as little as $50 a day or so if you keep it real tight, or more like $80-100 a day is more typical. Depends a lot on your accommodation. A few years ago I traveled there for $30 a day. Not sure exactly how many islands I visited on that trip, I went to Greece three times last year, you'll love it.

Hi Gabriel! Really love your videos. As a newbie I have a lot of questions. I would be grateful if you could answer them. Which apps do you use to get around? Is it always rome2rio between cities and countries and google maps within cities? Or there are also other apps? When you buy tickets to busses, trains and ferries, how do you decide if it's going to be online or at the station? How do you book a flight tickets? Is it through an OTA or direct from airline? How do you decide how many days will you stay in a new country? How do you decide which places to visit and where to go in each country? Which websites do you use as a travel guides to visit places? Do you plan your itinerary before you visit a country or while you already there? How do you decide if it's better to rent a car or to use public transportation? When you move from one country to another what do you do with unnecessary stuff? For example if you move from cold country to hot country what do you do with warm clothes which take up a lot of space? What is the best way to exchange currency? At ATM or exchange office? Is it better before you move to a new country or when you already there? Thank you in advance!
