The one and only Delphi

 When we were on our way to Athens, we stopped to see Delphi.
The archaeological site of Delphi is included in UNESCO World Heritage List. This place is a Panhellic sanctuary with an international fame. Its remnants represent some events of art and architecture. The sanctuary is really unique and special. This place has both natural and historical environment. It is also related to a lot of event and Greek history that have an impact on the progress of civilization. This whole temple town is located in the mountains looks incredibly amazing! While climbing you can look at ancient legacy and admire views. The sanctuary is really authentic and worth your attention.

Hiking up Mount Olympus


 During holidays we like to stay active. Today we tried hiking up Mount Olympus. It is the highest mountain in Greece. Our climb started from the town of Litochoro. We took medium difficulty track. In my opinion this hike is a bit too hard for amateurs. To complete this track you must have hiking equipment or at least be fit. Path goes up and down and continues for 9 kilometers. Highest point of the track that you can reach is 1.1 kilometer. There are some rest areas to take breath. While climbing you can enjoy beautiful views. I just really love being in the Mountains. Breathing that air feels different and special. So we passed half of the track and decided it is enough for us. Going down was way easier than going up. After all we didn't feel very tired except feet were a bit hurting. 
All in all, hiking is fun and a great way to loose some weight.

Meteora monasteries, Greece


At the moment I'm on a holiday with my family in Greece. We live in a beach village Velika which is located on North of Greece, in Larissa regional unit. Our aim is to relax by the beach and go sightseeing.
Today we went to see Meteora monasteries. It is one of the biggest and most important monasteries in Greece. They were built on natural sandstone rock pillars. There are six monasteries located in this area. It is also included in the UNESCO World Heritage List. I  just have no words to describe this beautiful place. Everything is surrounded by mountains and looks majestic. We climbed stairs on the top of The Holy Monastery of Great Meteoron - This is the largest of the monasteries located at Meteora. I wore quite sporty clothes: pink Puma shorts, white blouse and Nike sneakers. However I was not allowed to enter monastery with shorts. But it was a common thing to tourists, so they had prepared skirts. I took a polka dot one. Inside the monastery it looks so peaceful. I mean it is a perfect place for friars. Even being there I felt alive like never before. The view was so inspiring. This area is really worth visiting if you are around.
After we decided to visit port city Volos. We expected to see beautiful old town or something like that. However we were disappointed. There were no people and nothing to see . We walked along the coast for an hour and enjoyed sea air.

Skopje at night and day



Hello lovely readers! Like every other summer we left for a family road trip. Last year we drove to Montenegro. This year our destination is Greece. 
First day we drove through Poland, Czech Republic and reached Slovakia where we stopped to get some rest.
The next day we passed Hungry and Serbia. We were on our way to Macedonia, where we booked a room for one night. Unfortunately in Serbia we stuck in a traffic jam for 3 hours. So we reached Skopje at 3 a.m and then for 2 hours searched for that room. While we were searching I couldn't stop admiring Skopje at night. All important buildings and bridges were beautifully light up. In the dark everything looks flawless and magnificent. Fun fact, there are so many homeless dogs at Macedonia, that to locals it is a regular thing. However to us it was unusual. We had five companions by our side when we walked through the city. Even though we were tired, we managed to take some photos. At 5 a.m we found our apartments and went to sleep. In the morning we had breakfast at the bar and after went for a walk to see Skopje in the daylight. The city at day time looks as beautiful as it looks during night. Macedonians worship Alexander The Great. On every corner you can see sculptures and monuments for him and other important people. 
After a short lookthrough the city we hit the road again. At about lunch time we were at Greece and by the end of the day we reached our final destination. 
Stay tuned for more posts of my trip.

How to: My first henna tattoo

Hello lovely readers! Quite a long time I wished for a henna tattoo. Every time I go through We Heart It or Pinterest and find these gorgeous designs I just can't stop admiring them. They look incredibly cool especially for summer! I always wanted to make it myself one day. 
So I had this opportunity to try it for a first time. I used 100% natural henna made of plants which is the best henna if you don't want to harm your skin. However it gives you this brown colour. Black henna looks better but it contains chemicals which are not very healthy. I had this already prepared mixture so all I needed to do is to find a nice and easy pattern for my first try. Of course Pinterest was here to help and I found a cute design. Basically all you need to do is to squeeze henna from the tube and follow the pattern. Also be aware that henna quickly soaks into the skin, so if you made a mistake you need to undo it as fast as you can. After you are done you can wait until dye starts to crumble itself. If you don't have a lot of time just wait one hour when it is completely dry and scratch it off yourself. The next day your tattoo will look even brighter. Now I am pretty happy how it turned out for me.  If you have enough fantasy you can even try to improvise and create your own pattern. 
I already look forward after doing another one of these. Hope you got inspired and ready to try it yourself.
Maybe you are also a fan of henna? Tell me about your experience.

Love, S

Free in poppy field



Hello lovelies! You may ask how I ended up in this field. Well, it happened accidentally. My mom and I were on the rode going home when we saw this spectacular view. She pulled over the car and we got out to admire this scenery. It wasn't only poppies but the sun was going down also. The moment was perfect. 
We couldn't miss this chance to take few shots and it lead to a mini photo shoot. However, I didn't have my camera with me so we had to take photos with a phone. 
I was wearing this brown floral dress. What I love about it that this dress reminds me of vintage style. I usually wear it when I want to be different. I also like that the bottom of this dress is like skater skirt so you can feel comfortable in it and still look fabulous. The back of it has a pretty big cut out. I bought it a while ago at Stradivarius. 
If you are able to notice my shoes, I'm wearing these gladiator sandals. They perfectly match the dress because of this shiny copper colour. I find gladiators quite nice for summer time. You can feel comfy in them and spice up your outfit by wearing something like this. They were bought on sale at Zara also not at this time.
That is all of this unexpected shoot. 
What is your latest photoshoot? 


Love, S
