    That 'oxi' on the castle doesn't mean don't come here! In Greece+Cyprus we celebrate Oxi Day as a public holiday every year on 28 th October. The Oxi or No represents the Greek answer to Mussolini's ultimatum to Greece in 1940 during WW2. So in other words it's symbolic of the Greek fight and resistance movement against the Nazis and Italians and celebrates the ultimate victory of the second world war!

    Hi Gabriel! Evia(Evoia) is a beautiful island. Visited there last year in June, I feel it's on the underrated side and not many people choose to go. There's a lot of nice places to hike around there, and a lot of streams thanks to the Dirfi mountain, it's also a little bit more green as well. (writing this comment before seeing the video ) Check out Paralia Chiliadou if you have the time, It's a nice drive there going up the mountains with a lot of surreal views and at one point you get to see across the Aegean sea, it's a nice secluded type of beach I think you'd like ! Lot's of small little towns along the way as well. Enjoy Ellada once again !

    Hello Gabriel,
    The small bridge inside Halkitha that connects Evia with the mainland there's a phenomenon that every 6 hours the waters stop flowing in one direction they turn and start flowing the other way. In antiquity one prominent scientist called Euripus studied this phenomenon but could not explain why this is happening,he killed himself by jumping in the water. So this strip of water is also called 'The narrows of Euripus '.
    The walk by the seaside in Halkitha is beautiful with beautiful buildings. I hope you can see this beautiful promenade.

    They are the red arrows. From England. My home country. They are amazing. Brilliant when you watch them in action. Amazing pilots. Bless.

      Those specific ones are actually British. Red Arrows I think they are called. They train there as well. But yes, in Greece you will see Hellenic Jets often..👍🏻

    Gabriel be careful wondering on all those "abandoned" castles ... between all these rocks there are certainly some snakes and more rarely scorpions too.

    You were in a great place to view the air show.
    I really enjoyed the preview! It was a little mystery, and when you reach the ruin castle, the mystery was solved. Thanks Gabriel! 🐾🐾💚Jul and family

    11:48 these are beautiful red flowers
    16:25 iconic view
    19:30 three pedals? 😮 That is the stick shift. I guess an important skill to have for Europe travel
    23:50 wow. Ancient amphitheater
    28:19 I bet they are practicing before the real air show

    evia is very beuatiful.it's a mountainous island special in the north part of it with rich nature.there are many picturesque villages.best beaches are locates along the aegean coastline.generally,it's a cheap island if you compare it with the rest.streets are not so good spacial in the north and accomodation is not also so organised as in the rest islands.it's a popular destination for athenians,because it's near the capital and you can go easily by car.

    I've never traveled anywhere in Europe but we are traveling and living all over central Mexico right now. Maaaannnn, I am just feeling like I'm getting a finer grip on Spanish and wow, to then turn around and learn some Greek, LOL. I guess it's good for neuroplasticity, eh? (I'm 65 and a digital nomad)
