The Island of Corfu has rich history and magnificent natural beauty. It is big enough to feel like you are on the mainland and small enough to feel like a parallel world with its own rules. I love the sea and there I have seen the most incredible sea views – turquoise waters and the mountains of Greece in the distance.  Once I set foot on the island, I found myself in a tropical paradise, lush and green, and winter remained in another reality.

Around the same time last year I visited Barcelona and I think I have discovered the best way to charge my batteries after winter. Perfect to really take in all that beauty and tranquility, when there are still no tourists. When the world becomes too much, it is always good to know there are places like Corfu to go missing.
