Hello all,

I currently live in Greece and I have cycled pretty much every corner in this country, although, I must admit that there are a few spots still unexplored. :D . It was a rewarding process that took me more than a couple of years to complete. I thought that by contributing and helping people getting here, would be my way of sharing something great.

I will be really happy to help in the best way I can, everybody who wants to cycle in Greece and explore the country. Information, suggestions, maybe cycling somewhere nice together? Just shoot!

Alex

    Ha!

    Guess that if someone follows a vegetarian / vegan diet he/she only goes for the 40% of the experience. Moreover, in the case someone doesn't camp at all, on my ... :-)

    I am personally heading by bike from Denmark to Greece as my "end destination". Greece is probably the country I am most excited to see, Any good suggestions when I am finaly reaching Greece? It is such a mystical country to me and i have no idea what to expect, except for beautiful weather. :) How is the terrain? is wild camping possible? ANYTHING helps!

    Cheers.

    Hello Holm,

    I have lived in Copenhagen and Aalborg for a few months. I must admit that I have met some wonderful people there and I always think of Danish people with nostalgia.

    Back to our topic. For me to be more helpful, I would like you to provide me with an idea of what is your schedule / timeframe in Greece and what is your point of entry (e.g. from Bulgaria, or by sea with a ferry from Italy to Patras). Also, when do you expect to arrive here?

    The reason for asking is to narrow down the options.

    Awaiting your input.

    Alexandros
