The ferry departs from Ancona (IT) and after only one (terrible, almost sleepless and extremely unfriendly) night without a cabin, we arrive in Igoumenitsa (GR) the next day. We have no plans and drive to the first campsite, only 20 minutes from the harbour. We can stop directly at the sea, the water is crystal clear and large white stones shimmer on its bottom. Just as you would imagine Greece to be. We chat a bit with our neighbours, enjoy a super hot shower and a quiet evening. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thanks to Bianca's friends (shout-out to Esther and Ioannis <3) we got a few tips for the north of Greece. Once again, we were unprepared and let ourselves drift a bit. First stop Ioannina. The city seems picturesque and modern, but somehow sleepy. Only when we stroll past the 10th closed shop do we realise that this is probably due to the siesta here. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is getting hot and we drive further into the mountains to Metsovo. There we find a place to sleep in a ski area, right next to a fresh water spring. It is incredibly quiet and relaxed. You can feel the spring in the air and with the cows in the distance and the ski lift next to us, you could almost think we were back in Switzerland. Here we walk through the forests that used to be inhabited by bears and have a barbecue in the evening. Above all, we enjoy the peace and quiet and the knowledge that we will now inexorably continue towards Asia. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
