Divine Destination
Growing up in a coastal town, I do have this strong connection with the sea. Whenever I see pictures of breathtaking blue waters and inviting coastlines, it certainly feels like home. I can almost instantly hear and feel the breeze and even taste the salty air. And boy, do I love singing! Which is why Mama Mia is among my most favourite films.
I must say the music, the story, and most especially the actors were spectacular on the film. However, the location was definitely the icing on the cake. Every scene could’ve been a postcard photo silently shouting “Come and visit this paradise!”
Greece, just like my home country the Philippines, is an archipelago and hence there’s almost beaches everywhere and the coastlines are virtually limitless. I have a friend who has been on a tour of the Greek islands and he said the sight was overwhelmingly dazzling he almost fainted. It was just too beautiful too handle.
No wonder the Greeks have developed immortal tales of gods, heroes, voyages, and adventures. Such natural beauty could only come from something divine.
I must admit there’s still a lot of places that I have yet to explore in my own country. However, it has also been a dream of mine since childhood to visit Greece and the Mediterranean region. One day I wish I could afford Mediterranean cruises.
