The famous route 66 winds from Chicago (here's the blog about Chicago if you haven't read it yet) to Los Angeles, California. It's more than two thousand miles long, but unfortunately I didn't drive all the way, obviously.
A funny fact is that some years ago, in secondary school, I wrote a presentation about this precise route. As soon as I caught sight of the Santa Monica pier I realized that I had literally traveled from Chicago to L.A.. Our life can be so ironic sometimes... Everything happens for a reason. It's truly fate. My journey in Los Angeles was sunny, delicious, full of adventure and action. My crew and I enjoyed the time of our stay the best we could, it felt like an everlasting day of vacation in paradise.

"Who seeks shall find." Sophocles "The energy of the mind is the essence of life." Aristotle "The secret of happiness is not found in seeking more, but in developing the capacity to enjoy less." Socrates Akropolis is a greek designation composed by the terms ákros, which means "extreme, utmost", and pólis, standing for "town", therefore defining the erection of a city on the highest geographical area of a region. On one hand, it was for strategic means, namely for the defence of a city, and on the other hand it is a symbol of the ennobling of the human values.
Temples and palaces of governants were built on the acropolis of many cities. And the Partenon, the popular temple dedicated to the greek goddess Atena, was built on the akropole of Athens during its golden era. Golden is also the fact, that our world is so full of fascinating history, and every second that passes, history is made. Everything that happens leaves marks behind, the past can´t be erased nor changed, it can only be questioned, accepted or forgotten. Here are some photos of my layover in Athens that I would like to share with you, including some recreation and restaurant tips ;). |
I'd rather have a passport full of stamps than a house full of stuff. Forever a discoverer
