Located between Lefkada and Zakynthos, Kefalonia is the largest of the 7 Ionian Islands in Greece. A beautiful piece of land with exotic beaches, magical underground caves and green forests. We visited this island as part of a three-week itinerary in the Ionian Sea and fell in love with it! So in this post I’ll […]

Hello, fellow introverts! Years ago, when a friend visited overseas, I booked a super cute Airbnb on Waiheke Island. New Zealand’s hot wine destination […]
