Kalimera, good morning from Greece!

We’re Marilee and Paul, married travel creatives. He’s the photographer, I (Marilee) the writer.

We met as university students on an archaeological dig in Greece. We love Greece, which feels like our ancient home.

Paul speaks 3 languages fluently, including Greek.  Now, I’m finally beginning to learn Greek.

⭐️ Linking the No. 1 foreign language course that I use + add’l language resources.

Yes, you can climb castle walls and explore ancient ruins in dresses and skirts 💯 

I wear dresses and skirts exclusively; my only pants are yoga pants. So I pack clothes with flow, flare, and/or stretch. And @tieks ballet flats go with travel, work, and vacation outfits.

This old stone windmill in Crete played a pivotal part in Disney’s 1964 live action film, THE MOON SPINNERS.

Based on Mary Stewart’s best-selling romantic mystery, THE MOON SPINNERS starred Hayley Mills as an intrepid tourist, Peter McEnery as her romantic interest, and Eli Wallach as a menacing villain.

The best part of the melodramatic movie is seeing Crete’s spectacular scenery and the working windmills in the ‘60s!

Welcome, friend! We’re Marilee and Paul, full-time travel creatives.

Paul is the photographer, I (Marilee) the writer.

We met as university students on an archaeological dig in the Greek Islands. Honeymooned here. And have returned time and again.

I’m finally learning the Greek language! We’ll occasionally share some Greek phrases with you.

⭐️ Linking the foreign language course I use + fun learning resources

#LTKTravel #LTKdayinmylife #LTKstorytime
3 favorite books about female adventurers, archaeologists, and world travelers:

Their true stories have inspired my (Marilee) journey since university. To quote one of these extraordinary woman:

“Few such moments of exhilaration can come as that which stands at the threshold of wild travel.” (Gertrude Bell, 1907)

#LTKstorytime #LTKdayinmylife #LTKTravel
3 little luxuries for better sleep at home and in hotel rooms:

1) Mulberry silk pillowcase
2) Mulberry silk eye mask
3) Ultra soft bed socks

Paul and I (Marilee) know the benefits of good sleep for health and well-being. These 3 bedtime essentials certainly help!

Discover a delightful place to stay and explore the beautiful area around Agios Nikolaos, Crete.

Paul and I (Marilee) booked the Lake View Studio at Remvi Apartments, a fully serviced 4-star boutique aparthotel.

The stylish, spacious, luxurious studio apartments overlook Lake Voulismeni and the Cretan Sea.

It’s a perfect spot to start each morning with coffee and views unique in Greece!

#LTKdayinmylife #LTKTravel #LTKvlog
Glamorous Agios Nikolaos, Crete, has drawn the glitterati since the 1960s. Here’s why:

Walt Disney himself chose the stunning Agios Nikolaos coast to film his live-action Disney movie, THE MOON SPINNERS, based on Mary Stewart’s best-selling book.

The 5-star hotel where Walt Disney and his movie stars stayed is still one of Crete’s finest beach resorts resorts.

Other books, movies, and TV shows have been set in Agios Nikolaos, of course.

But THE MOON SPINNERS book and movie started the travel trend that continues today.

#LTKstorytime #LTKTravel
What’s the best camera for nighttime photography?

As a trained photographer, Paul gets this question a lot. He always says the best camera is the one you have and use. But at night, it’s more about the lens.

Still, while carrying his big camera and lens galore, Paul reaches most often for his small Sony and DJI Osmo cameras linked below.

#LTKMens #LTKdayinmylife #LTKTravel
Discover the best views in beautiful Agios Nikolaos, Crete — views unique in Greece.

Lovely Lake Voulismeni is the lively hub of this chic coastal town.

Paul and I (Marilee) booked the Heart of Emerald suite at Emerald Lake Studios, a family-owned aparthotel on the lakefront.

Although we have no footage inside our stylish one-bedroom suite, Paul shot these stunning views from our balcony 🤩

One essential skirt to pack for European spring vacations:

A sleek midi or maxi skirt — flattering fit, versatile style.

It’s chic for date nights in capital cities. And casual for daytime strolls down cobblestone streets.

The longer length is also nice in early spring’s changeable weather. Europe’s southern edge, Crete still has snow in March!

#LTKTravel #LTKgrwm #LTKOver40
What should you wear to visit churches and monasteries in Greece?

Modest attire is the answer for everyone. Especially at important places like the monasteries of Meteora.

So, pop a lightweight pashmina and pull-on skirt or pants into your tote or day pack.

Some holy sites have wraps available at the entrance. But most don’t.

#LTKTravel #LTKOver40 #LTKdayinmylife
The ONE pair of shoes I (Marilee) pack on every trip:

Ballet flats by Tieks. Here’s why I love and have worn @tieks  for years:

Quality Italian craftsmanship. Lightweight and foldable. Super cute AND super comfortable.

3 things I (Marilee) pack for European travel in March:

1) Dark wash denim jacket
2) Slim black maxi skirt
3) Midweight cashmere sweater

Even on Crete, Europe’s southernmost edge, March weather can turn quickly. So spring outfits need versatility.

Seriously, what IS this place? And how did Paul capture this scene?

This is Agios Nikolaos and Lake Voulismeni on the Greek island of Crete.

Paul is an FAA-certified, FAA-licensed drone pilot. He filmed this scene with his favorite drone — on sale now!

#LTKTravel #LTKSaleAlert #LTKdayinmylife
Photographer Paul is constantly asked, “What’s the best camera?”

Paul always answers, “The best camera is the one you have and use.”

I (Marilee) like my iPhone for B-roll. Because it’s handy and easy to use.

Paul carries his 3 favorite cameras in his sling bag. Including the DJI Osmo he’s using here in Agios Nikolaos, Crete, Greece.

#LTKMens #LTKTravel #LTKdayinmylife
