Good day,
I’m in my office doing some work here on the island and figured I should start adding some of the videos I”ve been busy producing. I wish I had been sharing them more in real-time because as you get better at anything, you often hate your old stuff unless you’re a delusional ego maniac.
This video is from my trip to Meteora which is the incredible Orthodox Christian monasteries which were built ages ago back when being a Christian was dangerous business, oh how times have changed! Supposedly if you got caught you’d be tortured and all that jazz so these hardcore monks built these fortresses / monasteries high in the hills.
Seriously, this place sorta blew my mind and I was there at the end of October so by no means high season or the best time to visit. If you’re in Greece and looking for something a little different, hit these ups as it will be fun for the whole family and is a great day out. Also great food abound in the nearby town but that’s no surprise as you can’t really go wrong with any restaurant you ever walk in to in Greece…
I’ve also attached the video of the train ride there I almost missed because my friend wanted a gyro, seriously. Ahh, I’m really liking these videos because SHABL was started as a diary of sorts so I can remember what I got up to after leaving my old life behind, video is the future anyways when it comes to travel as it paints a more vibrant picture of what really happened and we all know the world most certainly DOES NOT NEED another top 5 list…
Tips hat,

“back when being a Christian was dangerous business, oh how times have changed!”
Dude WTF are you talking about?! Western Protestants, European Catholics, and Eastern Orthodox Christians compose the vast majority of casualties in WW2. You know… just 75 years ago.
The problem with hedonists is that they are so inebriated with the pleasure of the present moment that they lose their grasp on what has actually occurred in the past.
charlie – I’m talking about being tortured for practicing a faith and as a result having to build forts on the tops of hills for safety; those dangerous times.
Lloyd – your argument is that 1.) being a Christian 2.) was a dangerous business but 3.) times have (dramatically) changed.
How so?
