As the summer season draws to an end many think that there’s nothing to do in Greece during winter. Let’s stop for a while and think about what Greece has to offer and doesn’t have anything to do with the summer or beaches.

This will be a huge global directory of budget accommodations (including hostels). Don’t worry about getting any spam from this but you should get some bookings.
Although the site is new, it’s part of a big travel network, so it should be worth couple of minutes of your time. …
