The Greek hidden gem
Corfu, known as Kerkyra in Greek, is a stunning island located in the Ionian Sea off the northwest coast of Greece. Its rich history dates back to ancient times, with influences from various cultures including the Greeks, Romans, Byzantines, Venetians, French, and British. This diverse cultural heritage is reflected in the island's architecture, cuisine, and traditions, making Corfu a unique destination in the Mediterranean.
The island's capital, Corfu Town, is a UNESCO World Heritage site, renowned for its elegant Venetian architecture, narrow cobblestone streets, and historic landmarks. The Old Fortress and the New Fortress are prominent features, offering panoramic views of the town and the sea. Corfu Town also boasts numerous museums, such as the Archaeological Museum and the Museum of Asian Art, which showcase the island's rich history and cultural connections.
Corfu's natural beauty is another major draw for visitors. The island is known for its lush green landscapes, olive groves, and stunning beaches with crystal-clear waters. Some of the most popular beaches include Paleokastritsa, Glyfada, and Sidari, each offering a unique charm and a range of activities from sunbathing to water sports. Inland, the island is dotted with traditional villages, where visitors can experience local customs and hospitality.
In addition to its natural and architectural beauty, Corfu has a vibrant cultural scene. The island hosts various festivals and events throughout the year, celebrating everything from music and dance to religious traditions. The Corfu Easter celebrations are particularly famous, featuring processions, music, and the unique custom of "botides," where clay pots are thrown from balconies to mark the resurrection of Christ. This blend of tradition and festivity provides a lively atmosphere for both locals and tourists.
Corfu's cuisine is another highlight, influenced by its multicultural history. Traditional dishes often feature fresh seafood, locally grown vegetables, and olive oil. Some local specialties include "pastitsada" (a spicy meat stew with pasta), "sofrito" (veal in white wine and garlic sauce), and "bourdeto" (a spicy fish stew). The island's vineyards produce notable wines, and local olive oil is highly prized. Dining in Corfu offers a delightful exploration of flavours and culinary traditions, making it a paradise for food enthusiasts.
Accommodation is an important decision to make prior to planning your route but our firm suggestion is to stay somewhere in the northern part of the island. We chose to stay in Pyramid City Appartments - a budget friendly accommodation is the North-East side with great views to the Albanian coast but very poor connections.
The roads can get very narrow in this side of the isle therefore if you're not comfortable driving in other countries and with rental cars you're better off staying near Paleokastritsa with very good connections but less relax.

Lisbon is a total gem of a city where traditional heritage meets modern vibrancy, and this is nowhere more evident than in its food and culture scene. The city is a bustling metropolis that offers a unique blend of the old-world charm with contemporary flair, making it a must-visit destination for culture enthusiasts and foodies alike.
Lisbon's culinary scene is a reflection of Portugal's rich maritime history, with an emphasis on fresh seafood. Cod (bacalhau) dishes are ubiquitous, served in various forms such as "Bacalhau à Brás" (shredded cod with onions, potatoes, and eggs). Sardines, especially grilled sardines (sardinhas assadas), are another staple during the summer months. But Lisbon's food scene isn't limited to seafood; "Alheira," a type of sausage made from meats other than pork, and "Bifana," a traditional pork sandwich, are also popular among locals and tourists.
Pastries and sweets hold a special place in Lisbon's culinary landscape, with "Pastéis de Nata" (custard tarts) leading the charge. These creamy, flaky pastries originated in the city's Belém district and are a must-try for anyone visiting Lisbon. The city's coffee culture is equally noteworthy, with cafes and pastelarias dotting every corner, inviting visitors to indulge in a leisurely "bica" (espresso) paired with a pastry.
Lisbon's culture is as diverse as its culinary offerings. The city is renowned for Fado music, a soul-stirring genre characterized by its melancholic tunes and lyrics that reflect the Portuguese concept of "saudade," or longing. Visitors can experience live Fado performances in various "casas de Fado" throughout neighborhoods like Alfama and Mouraria, offering an intimate glimpse into Portugal's soul.
Art and history are woven into the fabric of the city, with numerous museums and galleries showcasing everything from contemporary art to artifacts that trace Portugal's maritime exploits. The LX Factory, a former industrial complex turned cultural hub, epitomizes Lisbon's blend of historical roots with modern creativity, hosting art studios, bookshops, eclectic boutiques, and thematic restaurants.
The city's architecture is another highlight, with the Pombaline downtown area (Baixa) offering a grid-like layout unique to Europe, majestic plazas like Praça do Comércio, and iconic monuments such as the Belém Tower and Jerónimos Monastery. The juxtaposition of traditional azulejos (ceramic tiles) adorning buildings with street art and murals in districts like Bairro Alto and Graça adds to the city's vibrant aesthetic.
Lisbon is a city that delights the senses and stirs the soul, offering a rich tapestry of food and culture that seamlessly blends tradition with innovation. Whether it's in the simple pleasure of a Pastel de Nata, the haunting melodies of Fado, or the intricate beauty of azulejos, Lisbon invites exploration and promises unforgettable experiences.

Where else but in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea might you find such a little, gorgeous island? Malta is a lovely place to go for a summer beach holiday, however… the islands of Malta have a rich history that has yet to be explored. Will a week be sufficient? Due to its compact size, Malta allows visitors to maximize their sightseeing potential.
This Itinerary is based on my explorations and carefully chosen places based on the best reviews, and my experience for an amazing road trip in Malta in the offseason.
There are three islands to choose from, but You will only have time to explore two of them—Malta and Gozo—in just seven days. If You go in the off-season, however, You may also have time to visit Comino. Don’t waste Your money and time staying in different places if you’re traveling just for a week, do it only if it’s Your comfy home on wheels and you’re staying there.
To give you an idea of how effective this can be, consider the following: two nights at one hotel on the island of Gozo, remaining nights in one hotel on the Maltese mainland, and one day of exploration in Comino without lodging.
If you’re flying and hiring a car at the airport, Gozo as a first destination will be more convenient, but for the following days, explore Malta’s mainland. The streets are mostly tiny in Malta so be prepared for that.

Cuba dazzles, enchants, and lures you in with its melancholic beauty, vibrant culture, and gracious people. It's a place of eternal contrasts, where decay and elegance, real and surreal, live side by side — in its art, streets, politics, and way of life. Nowhere is its character more on display than in Havana. Narrow streets lined with crumbling mansions and pastel-colored vintage cars, parades of trumpeting musicians and gyrating stilt dancers, and the Habaneros for whom the streets are part of life. Around every corner, a new layer is peeled back to reveal yet another unexpected delight in this city of endless intrigue.
Our CityKITS gently nudge travelers off the trodden path, encouraging positive-impact exploration that’s a win-win for travelers, local communities, and the environment.
The CityKIT includes:
- 5 recommended conscious boutique hotels and residences in Havana
