My tale of a Margherita Drinking Globe Trotter
After a nightmare year of 2021, which nearly broke my spirit, I found the strength to walk away from everything that wasn't bringing me happiness and decided to follow my dream of travelling the world.
I Packed up my home, sold all my possessions, and now I'm out in the world living on a wing and a prayer, learning to love, forgive, heal myself and grow my wings again, by embracing new cultures, making new friends, Vlogging my adventures along the way.
I have a new little online shop, selling all things Greek, Skiathos and a little bit Roadtripping Ruth!

Thank you so much Ruth for showing us the easy way up. Both of us have mobility issues and this route was so much better. Big thanks to you Ruth. Stephen and Alison
Lovely place 😊
Nice video. You should have more subs.
It was lovely to meet you last night in the town. Keith. Lee and Alan
Yayyy.... the 3 amigos! Great to hear from you! I hope you found your way to Koziakas for your food ok? Have the bestest time here. Was great to meet you all. Big hugs to you boys ❤️xxx
Hi Ruth it's 3 amigos here wer in town at the Parada bar fancy a meet xx
Aww..... thankyou so much for asking, but I have just started my evening shift at work! Have the best time boys. Have a cheeky drink for me! Big hugs to you all xxx❤️
Would you feel comfortable doing this by yourself as a solo female traveller? I’m heading to skiathos soon and would love to do this!
Hi are buses any good for wheel chair users x
Question 1: What do you work with down there? Question 2: Would you recommend to live and work In Skiathos?
Id love it then too as long as odd restaurant or bar open
What is the weather like in October compared to September?
love your videos coming to Skiathos in July, I hope you are ok my sweetie, not seen any new videos recently❤xx
Whats it called?
Wow looks so different than summer. Peaceful though
Looks so different in winter although i expect its hot again now😊
Why did you shout to a woman today that complimented your hair?
Hi, this was a neighbour of mine. Sadly it was no compliments. I had listened to a very homophobic slur. Which as a champion for LGBT rights, I let her know how unacceptable her words were. I have zero tolerance for this. All I wanted to do was have a quiet lunch with my mother on my break from work. Thankyou for asking. I wish you a wonderful stay on the island. Happy holidays. 🇬🇷🇬🇷
It’s lovely to see how much you love Katarina. I’m a new subscriber, enjoying your videos. Have been to Skiathos twice for my hols and really love it. I think you are really brave to scramble down and up that cliff edge, but presumably you survived it!!! 😂
It's such a shame that some people behave like that but we seem to be surrounded by them these days, just keep doing what you do, Skiathos looks wonderful 👍
flying out to stay at green park next week, enjoyed watching, very informative. thank you
Kindness and warmth exude from you! X
Just found you, perfect! We are coming May 16th for 10 days, really hoping for lovely weather..what do you think? Both for walking and beach. The light looks glorious.
Hi Ruth. How has the island recovered from the storms last year? We were due to fly out the day after the storm started so it was cancelled, we rebooked for this September so looking forward to that and keen to know if the island is back to normal? Regards, Simon
Hiya Ruth What’s the weather like in may? Can you tell me if the princess hotel doing ok after the storm.
Hiya Ruth What’s the weather like in may? Can you tell me if the princess hotel doing ok after the storm.
Going to Troulos in September 🎉. I imagine it is starting to pick up now we are in March?
Do you know if the roads that was destroid last September is ok now? I men the ones thats on the northwest side of the Islands. We we were there last September and the road past Elias beach was a no go zone. Coming again in June and would like to visit those beaches that we could not last time.
Hi Camilla, Alot of the roads on the North are still not in the best shape but passable,The municipality are working on making sure the islands beaches and roads are ready for summer! Im sure with a good jimny you will be able to do lots of exploring this year! 😀😀❤️
Nice video:) Random question, do you know where the best price ticket is to go to Skopelos, I know there's the travel agent on the corner of papadiamanits but wonder if you get a 'tourist tax' on the ticket.
Hi Thomas, I always buy my tickets from the travel agent on the corner of papadiamantis and never had a problem with tourist taxes. You can also purchase tickets online too, which I have done too for other Greek Islands! I hope you have the bestest time here on Skiathos and Skopelos 😀😀❤️
Thanks @@roadtrippingruth8582
Keep sending little videos of the island. I love cannot travel there at the moment due to illness, but seeing you there with your little dog makes one Man from Runcorn Cheshire, very happy. Keep the good work up👍👍
Aww.... thankyou so so much for just the kindest words! Im so sorry to hear you are poorly. I really hope you are on the mend soon and get to visit your beloved island. Sending you all our love from me and Katarina ❤️ 😘 xxxx
137 days and we’re back. 😊😊

The best night l spent in Skiathos Ruth, the cinema followed by the 'Kentavos bar'....utterly fab xxx💞
Sounds a perfect night to me! A night of music and dancing ❤️🥰🥰xxx
Nice one Ruth, keep ‘em coming.
Thankyou so much Steve! Hope to see you in the Summer 😊😊😘xxx
Hi Ruth , just came across your RUclips, love skiathos , first went in 2001 and second time was last August, obviously a lot has changed which you would expect over so long but the people and food are fantastic
Stayed at Zorbas family house and wow
Hi Steve, thankyou so much for subscribing. Really appreciate it. Yes, Skiathos has changed alot over the past 25 years ( We have known the island around the same amount of time) buts it been the most beautiful love affair. Every year I have grown to love this little rock more and more! Hope to see you this Summer if you coming. Lots of love xxx
Lovely island many a nice holliday troubles bay area
Lovely Troulos. A beautiful place to stay. I hope you will get to visit again this Summer.😊😊xxx
It was definitely one of my bucket list items to see the planes take off and land so close! Still nearly knocked me off my feet though 😂
Its pretty crazy there in the Summer. I see terrible blast related injuries every day when I cycle to work throughout the summer. Please take care. I would hate for you to be hurt. Sending you hugs and love ❤️ xxx
Thanks for our Skiathos fix, your the best. 😘
Aww... you are so welcome! Sending you much love ❤️ xxx
✈️💨💨💨❤🇬🇷
Your favourite ❤️❤️❤️
Ruth, if you’re looking for ideas for videos, I’ve just seen this. Possibly do something similar for Skiathos? You have a lot of great information already - not sure what your video editing skills are like, though. Best wishes. ruclips.net/video/EhVQBOJLeyk/видео.htmlsi=QwMMQqrVy8ochGhd
Hi Ruth ~ lovely to see you and Katerina again ❤. Not sure if anyone else has said yet, but regarding the little church, I’m pretty sure that it’s also called Agia Paraskevi as ‘Agia’ means ‘Saint, (female - Agios is a male saint). So the beach and area are named after the church 😍 Looking forwards to your next video xx
Hi Kate, thankyou so much for this information! Thats just great. You have taught me something new and I'm sure other people reading the comments will appreciate the info too 😀🥰. Always love learning about the island ❤️. Hope you are well and managing to keep warm and cosy. Really hope to see you in a few months time 😊😊❤️xxxx
A pleasure Ruth. Looking forwards to my first ever Easter in Skiathos - will look out for you and Katerina 🥰
Brilliant stuff! Ping me a message when you are here and we will have that much overdue get- together ❤️ 😊 xxx
Great video again! Now for my constructive comments. Having been to Skiathos many times in the Summer, in my opinion looks much better than January. Ok, that was an obvious comment. Now for the critical observation. Notwithstanding that the Skiathos Princess from the outside going toward the sea has always reminded me as a bit of a dump, I find no excuse for that god awful beach. So, this "event" in Skaithos happened in September 2023, and its now January 2024. Why hasn't any work been carried out to repair the damaged beach? I suspect this lack of care probably resonates on every beach. The tourist season is not that long away. Hopefully the repairs will be done. After all what is the point of "Tourist Tax"? They have the money. No excuses!!! End of rant ;-)
Hey Dave, thanks for watching 😊😊 at the moment there is little point fixing any beaches until the Spring. We have to get through the bad weather of Winter first. The heavy rains and snow will come and go, and then Spring is all about making everything shiney and New again. The Muncipality have many many beaches to fix, but I don't doubt for a second that they will all be ready by May when the first tourist flight comes in! Sending you lots of love. Hope you are staying warm and cosy ❤️xxx
@@roadtrippingruth8582 Yes I am sure you are right. You are an asset to us all. Keep it up, you have a great fanbase! As for warm and cosy, I hope you are too. 🙂
Aww... thankyou Dave. I have literally come back from the pharmacy with a hot water bottle. I will certainly be warm and cosy tonight. Big hugs and love to you! Looking forward to a good proper chinwag in the summer with you 😊😘xxx
@@roadtrippingruth8582 For sure. Sorry not seeing you last year. We just didn't get up that hill ;-)
Storm proper did a iob there didn't it! Xxx
Hey Rich, yesss.... it did take a bit of a battering. I hope we have calm winter weather so things are not made worse 🙏🙏xxx
Hi Ruth would you do a video on achaladies beach soon 👍🏻😎🇬🇷🏖️
Hey Daniel, yes great idea! I haven't been there this Winter, so it will be good for me to explore Achaladies. I will choose a sunny day for this 😀🇬🇷😘xxx
Hi Ruth, how lovely that is. When I first came to Skiathos in 1996 I stayed in Paraskevi and loved those 10 says so much.. the year Skiathos stole my heart. Its freezing here and I'm anchored down with the heating on and a hot water bottle by my side.Role on May 8th for some Skiathos sun! We booked our flights for June today too , so we will be rotating around the place in May and June...yippee!! See you Ruth. Steve and David ❤❤ xx
Oh Steve thats a beautiful story of how you fell in love with Skiathos. Super happy you are both returning twice this Summer. More opportunities to see you! Stay cosy with that hot water bottle. I wished they sold them here! Sending you both all my love. Always 😘😘❤️❤️xxxx
Was just wondering if the bus still runs on a reduced... schedule over the winter? Oops asked that before watching the full video 🤦♂️
Its a very reduced schedule. Last bus from Koukanaries is at 6.30. No night time bus adventures here 😅😀
So glad to see you again Ruth and Katarina. Lovely walk around Agia Paraskevi. Take care and look after yourself.xxx
Thankyou so very much. We send you all our love ❤️😘xxx
Sounds like you’ve got a bit of a cold Ruth! At least Katarina enjoyed all the puddles and water 😊
Oh Steve, I do have a wee sniffle going on! Its been so wet and chilly that I think my body has gone into shock! 😅🙈 It took me forever to clean Katarina up at the bus stop. Wet, sandy and muddy she was! Speak to you very soon Steve. Much love ❤️ xxx
