The Importance of Slowing Down. #HogsAbroad in Greece









This morning we had to say goodbye to Pantelis and Tryfon, which was so incredibly sad. We were all heartbroken driving away, but we will see them again soon! We headed out for a day at Meteora. The monasteries that we visited were all on the edges of mountains and very secluded. There used to be 24 but now there are 6 left. They all hold very few monks or nuns. They were all painted with amazing frescoes and had so many cool artifacts. We found our hotel down town and spent the rest of the night shopping and eating dinner. One of my favorite things about Greece is the slow pace of life and being able to wander around cities freely.
