Thank you for taking us to Peloponnese! I’m so thankful you included the Corinth canal. We didn’t go further than Corinth in our visit due to only 2 days, we stayed in Loutriaki (loved it by the way)! But have dreams of going back!!! Thank you! Excellent video as always! ~Cara

I took my first big trip in the mid 70's to Greece. I remember Corinth as a beautiful, quiet place and Olympia as an amazing space with such an historic atmosphere. What an amazing waterfall - you are quite the adventurous couple.

I love Greece. one of my favorite memories is traveling in the early 80s with my husband (now passed) in the mountains and stopping at a tiny grocery and just pointing (we didn't speak Greek)at some meat & cheese & bread to buy. we then had a picnic lunch enjoying our spectacular views. stunning country. thanks for the sweet memory.

Your videos are so well photographed with an interesting variety of camera viewpoints, smooth transitions and overhead drone photography. All beautifully edited and considered; they are a complete joy to watch. Such a respect for place in your attitudes and the way your travels unfold as well. Pure bliss. .

John and Tara, I am late watching this lovely vlog on The Peloponnese, but better late than never! This region is fascinating and although I have not visited it, the BBC’s Patrick Leigh Fermour / Benedict Allen programme on KZitem is a superb documentary of one of the great explorers. As you know he owned a house there and it is now a museum. It is featured in the film. John Humphrys, the former BBC Today presenter bought a house in that region and wrote a book. It is an interesting account of trying to rebuild a ruined house and the problems that occurred, which were many!

We have been so very fortunate on our travels during the pandemic, it has meant we have had nearly every place we have visited almost exclusively to ourselves. No doubt this is set to change, and we welcome that change for the sake of the folk who work in tourism and so desperately need their incomes and livelihoods to return. Thanks Hugh, have a great weekend.

@@TheNewbys Hang on a minute......why don´t you ask me the meaning of life instead! That´s a hard one between heart and mind but my soul says that I´m "home"when I/we go to Greece. The most romantic place is Corfu. It´s so blue that it hurt your eyes and the smell of pine & honey and I have never in my life felt so much life, in one small area like the British Cemetery in Corfu Town. Rhodes is our "homehome", and we have taken that, into our home here in Gothenburg, Sweden. We do collect ceramics from Rhodes so we are not very far from home!

It feels so good that lately more and more people here are becoming environmentally conscious, form groups and clean beaches and any other place covered in rubbish. I only wish the people who litter the environment more thoughtful.

Lovely vlog, I think we may visit there, thanks! I just don’t understand the litter mentality, we live in an historic town, first recording in history was 875 ! People come here because it is s pretty and the history etc. and every week we are out litter picking… argh! We also have links and lived in Australia for many years, they have signs and tv infomercials saying ‘Don’t be a tosser!’ And it works, there is shame in dropping litter there, the country is so clean.
