Produktbeschreibung
When a long-forgotten, apartheid-era arrest record derails Sally's plans for a Canadian family holiday, she packs her mum's 1978 travel diary and sets out solo for Greece instead. As she journeys to the landmarks her mother once visited - and discovers many more - Sally immerses us in Greece's awe-inspiring landscapes and fascinating heritage sites. She delights in absorbing the country's rich history and connecting the dots between legend, location and contemporary literature. Insightful, intelligent and with an infectious sense of wonder, Sally embraces a gentler approach to travel: facing her fears, abandoning old anxieties, and finding joy in the simple pleasures of her own Greek odyssey. The second release in the 'Packing for Greece' series travels to Athens and Delphi on the mainland; Nafplio, Mycenae, Epidavros and Methana on the Peloponnese Peninsula; and the islands of Hydra, Aegina, Poros, Kefalonia and Corfu (with a side trip to Albania).
