This blog post contains an important message from my Dutch friends: “There is so much more to see in the Netherlands than just Amsterdam”. I have been wondering lately, why a vast majority of bloggers when travelling to the Netherlands write only about Amsterdam, while there are so many other interesting places to see. IfRead more

Summer days - when your only worry is whether to c Summer days - when your only worry is whether to choose jacuzzi, pool or beach ๐Ÿ˜‚โ  โ  Seriously this trip wouldnโ€™t be the same if we hadn't stayed at @meandrosboutique .

For me, itโ€™s just incomparable level of privacy and comfort to have my own pool and terrace area in my hotel room. โ โ  โ โ  The master suite was very spacious, had two separate rooms, both with direct access to the swimming pool and a comfy sitting area ๐Ÿ˜โ โ  โ โ  Also, once you have a private pool, you can order floating breakfast!โ  (check my previous posts ;))โ

The bar is located on top floor of Diana Hotel @dianagrouphotels @meandrosboutique
Itโ€™s been a few years since I was planning to vi Itโ€™s been a few years since I was planning to visit Zakynthos. My last trip to the island was with my parents when I was only 14 years old. I still remember the excitement I felt when I saw a wild sea turtle, I still feel the taste of delicious Greek salad we had, the suprise of water color, and I still hear the sound of broken plates in a typical Greek taverna. Needless to say, I had a blast. So, this year I decided, itโ€™s the highest time to travel to Greece and to revisit Zante. โ โ  โ โ  To be honest, I had no doubt where to stay in Zakynthos. I had my eye on @meandrosboutique for a while now, particularly because itโ€™s an adults-only boutique hotel (hello peace and quiet my friend ;)) and it offers rooms with private pools and floating breakfast (see it in my previous post)! โ โ  โ โ  I canโ€™t imagine a better place for a romantic couple stay on the island! โ โ 
Time to show you around our next Greek destination Time to show you around our next Greek destination - Zakynthos ๐Ÿ˜ Starting with my absolutely favorite picture of a wild sea turtle that decided to swim with us for about 10 minutes at Dafne beach ๐Ÿ˜ Zakhynthos is famous for its turtle nesting beaches but I havenโ€™t expected to be so lucky and actually swim with one in the wild ๐Ÿ˜ Though better safe than sorry - I always swim with my GoPro ๐Ÿ˜† Thanks @meandrosboutique @mariola.f for taking us to this beautiful beach and making the โ€œturtle freakโ€ inside me very happy๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿข

By the way guys, @daphneskopelos has incredibly romantic personal story on how she met her husband in Skopelos, decided to stay on the island and start wedding planning business. Ask her and I am sure she will tell you the whole story ๐Ÿ˜Šโ

All of the pictures that I have from beach destinations are in one piece swimsuit.โ  โ  Truth to be told, I have never felt comfortable wearing a bikini and posting pictures of me in it was way out of my comfort zone...โ  โ  It wasn't until our recent trip to Tenerife where majority of girls were wearing only thongs at the beach and there was something very liberating about it. I was jealous of how confident they seemed. So, I went to a shopping mall and bought myself a thong bikini too (this one is from @hunkemoller ). โ  โ  And you know what? I love it so much I can't stop wearing it! โ  โ  Are you team bikini or one piece swimsuit?โ  ๐Ÿ‘™๐Ÿฉฑ โ  Btw this picture was taken at beautiful Velanio beach on Skopelos. To get to this beach you need to walk until the end of Stafilos beach and find a small path that leads to another side of the coast. Yup, you need to walk quite much, but you will be rewarded with almost no other people, crystal clear water and stunning red cliffs!โ  @dolphinofskopelos @visitskopelosisland
