Day 7: Grandma’s house

Dear all,

Yesterday I arrived at the coastal city Kamena Vourla. I had previously looked up a hotel, Hotel Nana, to get a room at. Great location, reasonable price, good reviews. I get there and walk up to the hotel when some lady (SL) yells at me in broken English. If I want a hotel? I am like, yeah sure, with hotel Nana if possible. She then proceeds to ask the cute old lady if she wants to take me in for one night. Unfortunately one night is too short for Nana, damn it.
Lucky for me, the parents of SL live nearby and own a hotel as well. She calls them up and her dad comes and get me by car, I follow him, SL explains.

Only 2 streets further and we stop near a house, park and walk up in to the garden. There I get asked to walk up the stairs and another cute old lady is making my room ready. Great!
She even has a fridge in my room, she shows me that she keeps coffee and cinnamon in open jars in de fridge for a nice fresh smell.

Since neither of the parents speak English and I certainly don’t speak Greek sometimes communication can be confusing but I had a great time here. For now, it’s time for a next place: Chalcis (Χαλκίδα).

Btw: I can’t believe it has only been one week since I left the Netherlands! Wow
