About this episode

In this episode of Journeys with Elliott, we talk about my recent trip to Greece, the sights, sounds smells, and everything in between. 

I also discuss some ''pet peeves'' - random things that I find annoying when I'm travelling.

Finally, I will read another section from my travel journal - my first day on the motorbike tour I did in Vietnam with some local tour guides, who I now consider as family.
