Solo Greece Travel, Intimidating or Exciting?

It was the beginning of June. I had just hiked for 3 hours, had dinner, and then was waiting for the bus to take me back up the hill where my car was parked. It was an amazing hike through the hills and countryside on the island of Amorgos. As I was figuring out how to buy a bus ticket, I met Michail, a Greek guy from Thessaloniki visiting Amorgos. We immediately got along. He was chatting with the bus driver, Tasos, and another guy, Vassilis, whom he had become friends with just a few days prior. After we all got off the bus in the Village of Langkada, he invited me for a drink with the three of them. I glanced down at myself. I wasn’t really dressed for anything other than a shower back at my hotel. So at first, I declined. And then I thought, “Come on Jen, why not?” I am glad I listened to that inner voice. It turned into a really nice night, with great conversation and raki, a local liquor. And that was just the start of new friendships, and dinner together a few nights later (pictured.)

When I’m in Greece, my heart is full, like bursting from the seams—so many moments filled with amazing encounters. I have met so many interesting people and had such great conversations. Some of them I exchanged info with and some I did not, but each moment was one that I wanted to take a snapshot of and pin it up on the wall of my life. These are the moments that I live for. Greece is where I feel most alive, where I continue to learn the language, the culture, and where I find new things that fascinate me.

The energy of the islands are like being inside a mystical time warp that connects directly with the divine. It’s where I feel at home, present, aligned, and in wonder.

I travel solo almost every time I visit Greece. Even though I am alone, I am not really alone. It creates an opportunity for me to meet locals and others who are traveling. It allows me to slow down, listen to my intuition, and do what feels right, on my own terms.
