One sunny month of leisure
with my dear friends.
Of all the Greek Islands I
visited, Corfu is my favorite. Corfu, far from being a typical Greek island
with houses painted in white and blue, has many architectural influences like
Venetian, English, and French. As
many of you may already know, it is also called the “green island”.
There I was delighted to
spend one month at my dearest friend’s family house. Maria’s house is located on the west side of the island,
which I highly recommend if you want to spend a nice vacation, avoiding the
typical busy and noisy areas. The
beaches are stretched with fine white sand. St George's where I stayed. If you
like to spoil yourself, you have to visit Delfini tavern. The food is amazing,
simple but very tasty. The fish is always fresh, better than any fish I have
ever had, and you won’t be disappointed. I promise you.
If you decide to visit the
East part of the island, go for the Barbati beach. I totally loved it.
Everything felt so perfect in
Corfu that I couldn’t resist the temptation to extend my stay an extra week!
This time I stayed in Corfu Town. While there, my routine was to let myself get
lost between the small narrow streets.
One of the tourist
attractions in Corfu is Sissi’s Palace. You don’t want to miss the interiors
and gardens. The views are simply delightful.
