As soon as I arrived, I was blown away by the rich history and culture that surrounds you in Thessaloniki. Walking through the city streets, you'll encounter Roman, Byzantine, and Ottoman influences everywhere you look. The White Tower, Thessaloniki's iconic waterfront landmark, is an absolute must-see.
But it's not just about the history - Thessaloniki is a city that embraces the present, with an exciting contemporary art scene and incredible street art at every turn. Take the chance to visit the State Museum of Contemporary Art and the Thessaloniki Street Art Festival.
Foodies, rejoice! Thessaloniki is a true culinary paradise, combining traditional Greek dishes and modern Mediterranean flavours. I've fallen in love with the local meze culture - a delightful way of sharing small plates of delicious food with friends. The bustling Modiano Market is the perfect place to sample fresh local produce and taste Thessaloniki's gastronomic offerings.
If you're a fan of nightlife, this city will not disappoint. Thessaloniki's buzzing bars and clubs cater to all tastes, from chilled-out jazz bars to high-energy dance clubs. Be sure to check out the famous Valaoritou and Ladadika districts for a night out you will remember.
Nature lovers, don't worry - there's something for you too. Thessaloniki boasts gorgeous seaside promenades and lush green spaces, perfect for a leisurely stroll or a refreshing run. Plus, the nearby Halkidiki Peninsula offers some of Greece's most beautiful beaches and stunning natural scenery.
In short, Thessaloniki has something for everyone, making it the perfect destination for your next adventure. So, what are you waiting for? Start planning your trip to this incredible city today.

Today, I'm going to share some fascinating insights into one of the most iconic flags in the world – the Greek national flag. So grab an ouzo and let's dive into its colourful history.
You might know it as the "blue and white", but did you know the Greek flag is also referred to as the "Γαλανόλευκη" or "Galanolefki" in Greek? It means "blue and white".
The flag consists of nine horizontal stripes alternating between blue and white. The top and bottom stripes are blue, while the white cross on the upper left corner symbolises Eastern Orthodox Christianity, the established religion of the Greeks. Why nine, you ask? Well, it's believed to represent the nine syllables of the Greek phrase "Ελευθερία ή Θάνατος" ("Eleftheria i Thanatos"), which translates to "Freedom or Death" – the famous rallying cry of the Greek War of Independence (1821-1830) against the Ottoman Empire.
As for the colours, blue and white? The blue represents the sky and the sea – two elements deeply intertwined with Greece's identity. The white signifies the purity of the Greek struggle for freedom and independence. Quite poetic, isn't it?
Now, let's jump into a bit of history. Although the modern flag we know today was officially adopted on 22 December 1978, its roots can be traced back to the Byzantine Empire (330-1453 AD). The Byzantine flag featured the double-headed eagle and the imperial colours – yellow and purple. After the fall of the Byzantine Empire, these colours fell out of use, and blue and white emerged as symbols of the Greek nation.
During the Greek War of Independence, different variations of the flag were used by Greek forces. One of the most famous examples is the flag raised by Andreas Londos, a leader in the Greek Revolution, featuring a white cross on a blue background. Another flag, raised by Nikitaras, another revolutionary leader, had the blue cross on a white background.

Took a little pause from posting on my feed, if you ask anyone who knows me well, they’ll tell you I’m “always on.” 😵‍💫 Not in terms of being on socials or even being on my phone… I’m always moving, working, creating, talking, etc. I feel like I’ve reached a capacity that wasn’t healthy, and I decided to take a little siesta from posting ~everyday~ Honestly that level of creation and sharing is A LOT for just little ol’me… so thanks for being patient with me and following along on my stories ❤️ • • • • • #menswear #menstyle #greece #athens #mensstyle #dapper #ig_greece #menwithclass #menwithstyle #mensfashionpost #athensvoice #greek #instagreece #greecestagram #ig_athens #menfashion #filipino #pinoy #santorini #streetwear #gentleman #wu_greece #men #gq (at Athens, Greece) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ch3QkRojzw5/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
