Your Perfect European Destination is Greece!

It sounds like you are looking for a beach destination with a bit of mystique and adventure mixed in since you profess to like islands and deciphering street signs therefore your ideal destination in Europe is Greece!

For the island enthusiast, Greece is paradise. Dotted across the Aegean and Ionian Seas, there are over 6,000 islands, each with its own unique character, from the vibrant nightlife of Mykonos to the blue domes of Santorini. 

Of course Greece offers a challenge beyond just choosing which beach to relax on. The country's long history is reflected in its street signs which are all Greek to me.

Deciphering the Greek alphabet is like a treasure hunt, unlocking not just your modern destination but opening up a connection to a great civilization that thrived more than 2 millennia ago.
