Northern Greece, an unexplored Greece w/ Nick Rahovitis, founder and co-owner of Joysters

This week, we're heading to northern Greece to learn about a non typical Greek experience.

Nick Rahovitis has been working with people, mostly student his whole life. After a teaching stint and management position at a multinational school in the UK, he was inspired to create his company, Joysters, that specializes in Northern Greece. Nick learned in the UK that few people have focused on traveling to Northern Greece and he was able to meet a need for travelers by letting them experience an unexplored side of Greece.

**On today’s episode, we are talking about how a trip to Northern Greece is starkly different from a traditional Greece vacation which typically includes the islands in the southern part of Greece. A trip with Joysters embodies Greek philosophy, mentality and well being, the joy of life.

In order to get the full experience in a different part of Greece, you need to smell it, savor it and sip it. Nick tells us just how to do that. A vacation that is not the stereotypical Greece can make for a meaningful, educational and beneficial travel experience. Learn about wine regions, mountain regions and even snowy regions. Begin in Athens and head north for the travel experience of a lifetime.**

Expose yourself to the flavors of a local authentic environment in Thessaloniki, Nymfaio, Western Macedonia and beyond.

Tune in to find out more about this off the beaten path experience in Greece and why you need to see the other side of this well traveled country.
