I Travel, I See, I Feel

"In every trip, what matters is being able to become one with the place you are visiting, not being a simple tourist, but a traveler. To travel, to see, to feel!" 

This is the philosophy of Yannis Vasvatekis and Andromache Parafesta, a couple of travel bloggers from Larissa, who have created the travelogue Travel See Feel blog (I Travel, I See, I Feel).

Andromache she is a teacher, loves Pilates and the company of a good book. John is a Civil Engineer, Stand Up Paddleboarding (SUP) instructor, skier, nature and adventure lover. They both love to travel.

Travel See Feel

"The idea of creating the blog came about after a trip to America, where we were looking for information about certain areas and couldn't find it in Greek," says Yannis Vasvatekis to Athens 9.84. "That's how we created the blog Travel See Feel and we record our experiences, providing information and encouraging other friends and not to make similar trips. The goal of the blog is not only to describe destinations and attractions (which between us… you can find everywhere) but a complete travel experience. We present proposals that we have evaluated as well as a comprehensive program for each destination.". So everyone, by reading our article, can organize their own trip. We also discover special airline prices, suggest offers for excursions in Greece and abroad and give travel tips for an unforgettable trip."

"We do not receive any financial benefits from blogging, except for a few cases where hoteliers have approached us for hospitality in exchange for writing an article about their units. The trips are made at our own expense, trying to always be informed about offers."

The pandemic "froze" their plans for traveling abroad, however, what they are proposing and doing themselves are trips to Greece by road.

"2 months ago a sweet baby was added to our family, he says happily, Yannis Vasvatekis "and of course our dream is to make him a traveler too and show him the world. Already, at just 50 days old, he made his first road trip to Greece and it went very well."
