You know you can plan your Greece vacation yourself, but if you’re maybe kinda almost thinking of seeking help (gasp! the crowd goes silent waiting for an answer), ask yourself this:

“What’s my capacity to worry about all this sh;t right now?”

Depending on how you answer that, there’s maybe kinda almost actually for sure a way to find help with your Greece travel in the link in bio. ;)

Be a good girl. Don’t believe the people who tell you to skip Athens. They did it wrong.

We first had this conversation on a TikTok live last week and had to cut the convo & questions off at 90 minutes.

You do not want to miss this…it’s nonstop solid advice about Greece travel.

We’re basically Greece Google, but with nice hair. ;)

🇬🇷Athens: “I beg your pardon?”
🍊Nerantzi: “Then beg.”

Ok yeah, these little oranges are super bitter…unless you have time, sugar, and do good things with your hands.

Yes they’re pretty, but taking one right off the tree is sure to leave a bad taste in your mouth.

Pro Tip: the majority of time in your daily Greece plans should be unscheduled. You can’t stop and talk to the locals if you’re always in a rush.

My job: getting you to places in Greece you didn’t even know you should’ve had FOMO about…

and making sure you know how to order your coffee when you get there. ;)

🇬🇷 It doesn’t matter how many times you see the Acropolis, an energy runs through you - conscious or not.

There is more to Athens than the Acropolis, but it still brings a large presence to your experience.

If you like the idea of visiting iconic places in Greece in non-cliche ways, you’ll want to tune into this IG Live next week:

- Wednesday, January 17
- 10am Chicago, 8am LA, 6pm Athina
- with …looooove her…nothing but transparent, tell it like it is, travel. If you don’t already follow her, do. She’ll be right up your alley!!

🇬🇷 Getting “in-shape” for summer in Greece?

Have you considered a stair-stepper only routine???

If you want to be realistic about it, bring your own souvlaki to the gym, and eat it at the same time.

Bonus points for bringing gelato in a waffle cone - eat it before it melts all over your hands.

Only want the best for you. ✌🏼

🇬🇷 idea: petition to add “Athens independent cafe-bookshops” to the list of official love languages.

📍 - Petralona, Athens

12/22/2023

🇬🇷 THIS is what I’ve been trying to say. Professional writers just do it better. ;)

I will help you with the bond. You only need to do two things:

1. Give Athens your time (at least 4 days)
2. Trust me to get you to the right places in it

12/20/2023

🇬🇷 It blows my mind that Athens, as an idea as a stand-alone travel destination, is a niche concept.

If you’re coming from the U.S. you will be going through Athens. So it’s safe to say EVERYONE has a chance to experience the city…but how well are they doing it? Ehhhhh, .

Let’s get you into the real Athens. I want you to see the parts that everyone else is missing …these neighborhood places are viiiiiibes.

My people (me. lol) will not call your people unless you call me first. Soooo call me. And by call, I mean I’m a Millennial, and can only converse first by written words. So do that. ;)

12/18/2023

🇬🇷 Imagine all the art you wouldn’t see if it first had to be approved by a group of middle-aged white men with lives too dull to imagine anything more beautiful than their grey-walled homes.

12/16/2023

🇬🇷 A short appreciation post for pomegranate season in Greece.

📍 Koukaki, Athens
📍 Arachova

11/16/2023

🇬🇷 Or, IDK…if that non-purpose makes you uncomfortable, perk up your false sense of confidence at the idea that you can definitely read the books in a Greek library….

or you want to take a picture of a wall…or the cute cat stared into your soul and dared you to go look at the shoes you don’t need…

But please please please just go out of your way to see what you’re curious about when you’re traveling because you won’t get that exact moment again.

11/07/2023

🇬🇷 I don’t make the rules.

Surprise is the exciting part of travel - so let’s not let over-planning sabotage it.

👉🏼 Choose destinations in Greece that compliment your travel style (e.g. calming & chill, bustling & active, etc) to set yourself up for the FEELING you’re looking for on this trip.

👉🏼 Your itinerary needs strategically placed “white space” - unplanned time to move slow & explore (aka surprise)

👉🏼 Know what your opportunities are and how to execute them IF you feel like it.

There is an art & balance to structuring an “unplanned” trip through Greece. Schedule our “How It Works” call (link in bio) to start (un?)planning your 2024 trip. ;)

📍Stoa Orfeos - Athens, Greece
Nearby Metro Stations: Panepistimo, Omonia

Can we talk about how ridiculous the internet is for a second? Yes. Ok.

I went to google to spellcheck the location - and to my surprise, a handful of people actually took time out of their precious lives to write a review of this walkway. And a couple of them were NOT happy (2 stars!). 😆

Whyyyyyy. LOL.

Carry on. Have a super duper awesome week. ;)

10/27/2023

🇬🇷 You deserve a better Greece experience than what mainstream media chooses to feed you.

It’s like all the bigwigs (let’s be honest…probably a bunch of old white men that never got told to shut TF up) got together, found one key photo from the most profitable places in Greece, and signed off marketing with a

🇬🇷 Santorini is more than blue domes in Oia
🇬🇷 Zakynthos is more than a rusty shipwreck
🇬🇷 Athens is more than the Acropolis
….I could go on.

It’s quite literally my job to get you familiar with destinations like this to make sure they are indeed a good fit for you (or not).

There’s a whole city out there that’s getting missed by the masses.

Let go of the Athens stories you keep hearing from people that don’t understand it.

🇬🇷Greece. But make it scary.
🫣 I am shooketh.

09/27/2023

And then my heart exploded. The end. 😅

You’ve heard me say many times how much I love my travelers - let’s clarify:

I don’t “love” them like I love pizza. I LOVE them as true friends. There’s a distinct difference.

And really I couldn’t plan a trip any other way. It’s not “just another Greece vacation” over here.

These are incredibly personal experiences that demand nothing short of a full holistic approach behind them.

My travelers are my people. Period. 💙🇬🇷
