Xronia Polla Ellada!
Hello everyone! I’m back, and it’s been an incredible month away with so much to catch you up on! Our second Travel Mazi Mou adventure just wrapped up in Crete, and what an unforgettable experience we had with our travelers from California. I’m thrilled to share some highlights from the trip below—stay tuned for amazing shots and stories from our time exploring Crete together!
Today, we’re also celebrating Xronia Polla to Greece for Oxi Day!
Oxi Day, observed on October 28th, commemorates the courage of Greece in WWII. When Mussolini presented an ultimatum in 1940, Prime Minister Ioannis Metaxas responded with a powerful “Oxi” (“No”), marking Greece’s entry into WWII. This day is honored with parades, ceremonies, and proud displays of Greek resilience.
I’ll also be posting some new holiday recipes soon, so keep an eye out for fresh inspiration to bring a taste of Greece into your kitchen! Plus, our 2025 adventures are already in the works—check out more on Travel Mazi Mou to stay updated!
Thank you for being here, and let’s keep celebrating and cooking together! 🎉
