My new found favorites. Artisan chocolates.
During our trip, we promised to visit as much chocolate shops as we could between our food trip and occassional sightseeing.
The first shop we visited was Franck Kestener‘s. It was a few steps from our hotel so we decided to stop by on our first day. The window display was so cute. I think it was inspired from the popular game, Angry Birds.

Since we were already in Greece, we thought it best to visit Santorini as well. Santorini was just as we expected. It was breath-taking. It reminded me of Batanes, the northernmost part of the Philippines. It was a rocky mountainous island surrounded by a clear blue sea. Typical of us, our first order of business […]
Our third day was reserved for the Acropolis. We wanted to go to Acropolis on our first day but we decided to wait until we were complete. Hiking is my least favorite activity in the world so I didn’t really enjoy the hike up to the Acropolis. But, of course, like most of my hiking […]
Who knew having a friend named after the Goddess of Wisdom and War would lead me to a whirlwind vacation in the ancient city of Athens. Well, I didn’t. This year, for our annual firm junket, my friend, Athenie, was the boss. She got to pick our destination and Athens was her obvious choice. (We […]
