Spring Break 2014: Greece

 
During Spring Break, I had the opportunity to travel to Greece with my SSSAS. It was an experience I will never forget. This was my first time traveling to Europe and I was excited! The city of Athens was beautiful, and it was awe-inspiring to see the ancient ruins juxtaposed next to modern apartments. We were traveling non-stop, taking in all the remnants the ancient history of Greece. Almost every place we visited would fit perfectly on a postcard, and I can truly say that there was never a bad view any place we stopped. Experiencing this country’s natural landscape made me appreciate the beauty of nature a lot more. The food was amazing and the people we met were generally pleasant and congenial. I had a great time in Greece, and look forward to returning in the near future.

The view from the top of the Acrocorinth, the highest point of the ancient city of Corinth. The picture doesn't really do justice to the amazing view and atmosphere of the top of this mountain.
