To celebrate my mom finishing her Masters degree and me receiving my B.A., we decided to head to Greece. As a history major, Greece had long been at the top of my list of places to visit, so I was excited to finally see all the sites I had read about and studied throughout college. Going in, I had very high expectations, and happily for me, this trip did not disappoint!

This website chronicles the adventures that my mom and I had for two weeks in May 2008 as we toured Greece. We took part in a Rick Steves tour and were joined by some wonderful travel companions. Leading the way were our tour guides, Colin and Dimitri, who worked so hard to make our trip memorable. We also had a wonderful group of fellow travelers to accompany us along the way!

Our journey began in Athens...
