THE GREAT WINTER ESCAPE - GREECE IN OUR CAMPERVAN!
GREECE BABY!
Greece has been high on our campervan bucket list for years and is quickly becoming our favourite country we've ever travelled to in our home on wheels. This week we visit the Greek towns of Methoni and Pylos, find some incredible free camping spots near Voidokilias beach, hike to a castle and paddleboard across to an island. ENJOY!

    Wi-Fi is pretty cheap here in DK. I pay £23 for a 1000/100 connection. Free Wi-Fi can be found in many places, such as Marina's, Libraries, City Halls, Trains and buses. Libraries often have a "big hole" to the internet. Tourist Information is also a good place to look for free Wi-Fi. It all comes back to the government, about 20 years ago, decided that the country should become paperless. In the start it went a little slow, but the government wouldn't have it. So a law saying that public authorities were not allowed to send out in paper format any more was adopted. That really helped. I haven't received any snail mail from authorities, insurance, or bank the last 12 years. I love it, no more important papers in the drawer, all digital. Filing my tax, usually takes under 10 minutes. Sitting behind my computer in my underwear 🙂 It really is nice.

    You should definitively visit Denmark in the summer (July. August or early September), Because of the countless islands (Not counting Greenland and the Faroe Islands) and water all around, "tiny" mainland Denmark has more than 7,300 kilometers of coastline/beach (or more than 4500 miles), which is actually more than Spain and Turkey and slightly less than Italy, including 250 Blue Flag beaches and 50 Blue Flag marinas, so it's fairly easy finding crowd-free beaches.

We don't even have a word for please. Nobody should have to beg. BTW, come back in summer, you won't regret it. All the pesky Danes are on holiday in Italy or Mallorca. But you have to share the country with the Germans. But there are plenty of beaches, Denmark has 8500 km coastline and nowhere in the country can you be more than 53 km away from the sea. Yeah. £4 is absolutely in the high end of the price scale. I do live in a touristy city at the coast, here a year later, a big bread costs £3,6. Good luck
