Hello and welcome to number 77! This week I am joined by award winning UK travel writer and former Time Out journalist, Peter Fiennes. Peter and I talk about his latest book 'A Thing Of Beauty: Travels in Mythical and Modern Greece'. We delve into his trip during COVID times to Greece in search of Hope and the places mentioned in Greek mythology. Peter candidly talks about the challenges we face as a human race on climate change which can be seen in modern Greece. I ask about his favourite spots in Greece, his favourite myths, what he learnt from the locals and his previous stint with Time Out Magazine. It was a pleasure to talk to Peter about all things Greece and travel and you should check out his book below.
