Greek Mountains Vlog (Slow Travel Diaries) | Meteora, Mount Olympus, and more! 🇬🇷

In this vlog I'm exploring central Greece — from monasteries perched on towering cliffs to the mythical home of the Greek gods ⛰️

🗻 Meteora — a UNESCO World Heritage Site where six active Greek Orthodox monasteries sit perched atop dramatic sandstone pillars, some dating back to the 14th century

🎨 Icon Workshop near Meteora — a local workshop where traditional Byzantine-style icons are hand-painted, keeping centuries-old techniques alive

🕊️ St. Ephrem the Syrian Monastery — a peaceful women's monastery near Katerini, home to nuns, ornamental gardens, and an aviary of peacocks, with handmade goods crafted by the sisters

🏔️ Mount Olympus — the mythical home of the twelve Greek gods and the highest mountain in Greece, towering over the region
