Europe Itinerary

1st CouchSurf experience in Life

5:54 AM

CouchSurfing basically means living in a local home in a foreign country. It's designed for adventurous people who dunno-why believing in a total stranger and have experience living together for a period of time.

Konstantinos, a Greek surfer in Heraklion, happens to become our 1st host in our trip, and very likely to be the best one.


4 days living with him is a breeze. He drives us, taking us to the best local restaurants (unlikely to be those expensive ones), and have us in his own house with all things that we need.
I wish there are Konstatinos all over Europe. And yes. The video shown explains the possibility that im visiting Crete again in the future. Just. For. The. White. Chocolate.
Konstantinos gave us unique greek cuisine experience that couldnt be find in ANY tourist guides, Probably the most relax days of our trip. I cant stop thinking about the fooooood that we had these days.

I've never thought of travelling in such a in depth way. Living with local people, spent time with them, talk to them in such close-distance and personal way, know their customs and daily philosophy more personally. It was surely exceptional. I don't think I'll be doing this kind of travelling later on in my life. Therefore, I'll treasure what I'm experiencing in these 3 months.

Greece, 4 more days and we're done here. It was really a pause for people like us who used to live in a big city. During these 2 weeks, we didn't see people hurrying to work, we don't see traffic jam, we don't hear noisy music, no buses and people waiting in lines for ATM. We hear ocean, we feel the breezing wind, we see people sitting out in the cafe just chatting, we lose the sense of time.

upcoming will be a whole new experience, Rome. I'm excited to visit all the old masters' works, paying tribute to their foot steps.

I didn't paint as much as I expected, unfortunately. But I'll sure do so for Italy and others countries.
