Aegina 🥰! I used to take the 18A bus from Kifisia to the metro to Piraeus then the ferry to Aegina by myself when I was only 10-11 years old! I love it! I’m hoping to retire in Greece by 2024.

@agirlandherpassport Год назад

Wow! That’s a long way to go by yourself at that age.

There is a Fistiki (Pistachio festival ) in Aegina in September. They harvest pistachio nuts on the island in September which are the best I’ve ever had. The main town has a food fair in September with pistachio related treats and bags to order.

@agirlandherpassport 2 года назад

They are so great! Didn’t know about the festival. Will try to remember for next year!

@joannem9820 2 года назад

How was the pistachio pesto? Did you find some to take home with you? When I went to Aegina in the early 1990s, I took the ferry to Agia Marina. It was such a popular beach then.

@agirlandherpassport 2 года назад

It wasn’t that great. The ferry doesn’t go to Agia Marina anymore which is a shame. It’s still popular but harder to get to now.

@mikefilimon1584 2 года назад

I meant to ask you this previously so when I was in Greece in January I took flying dolphin from Piraeus to Aigena. I had a wonderful experience what I wanted to know from you since you are an ex-pat living in Greece when one buys a ticket on one of these fairies how does one know which port to go to unlike an airport when I arrived in Pereus off of the metro I didn’t see any kind of information board that one would see inside of an airport can you answer this?

@agirlandherpassport 2 года назад

There is a large board at the port, but it is outside the fence so you may not have seen it. The gate number should be on your ticket though. If it isn't then, you can go to the office of the ferry operator at the port and they can tell you.

Great Video and an interesting proposition for a weekend getaway! BTW, I have some updates on the travel size cosmetics...! I found out by accident that the Hondos center at Ampelokipi (at the start of the kifisias avenue) has a rather extensive line of travel size woman's cosmetics. Don't know if this is the case in other hondos centers from now on.

@agirlandherpassport 2 года назад

Thank you! That is interesting as I looked at the one on Ermou and they didn't have them. Thanks for letting me know.

Next time you visit Aegina, you can check out a very pretty island next to it called Moni Eginas, you can get a boat from the main port although not that frequent and you can see some clear waters, nice nature and deers and peacocks!

You’re welcome. It depends on what you want to do. It’s a pretty big island so biking may not be possible if you aren’t used to it. Also, getting up to the temple would be hard on a bike.

I swear, whenever people talk about water temps for swimming in the Mediterranean, I thank God I grew up on the beaches of SoCal, where temps hovered in the mid-60s in summer, yet still we swam. I think I recall your saying you're from Texas, so I get it, given the bathwater temps the Gulf can get to, but still, I'm glad I got acclimated to cold sea water swimming when I was young.

@agirlandherpassport 2 года назад

I am not a huge fan of the cold water. I want it to be refreshing but not so cold. I also used to live in the Caribbean and I loved that water.
