Good morning from Thessaloniki.
It's a fine, brisk Sunday and the city is abuzz from multiple festivals and fun dos. And most prominently standing connecting them all is the city's beautiful seafront. The promenade that was revamped and turned into an urban oasis a few years back, giving the city some edge. And despite obliging to the same September visit here every year, the city doesn't cease to amaze me.?
Micromobility (again) for one is making the city's heart beat!?Sure, we've seen it elsewhere; with Paris (previously) standing proud as the frontrunner, full of bikes and scooters around its magical city centre. But committing to your daily commute to work whizzing through the city's seafront on a scooter? Ugh, I so envy my fellow Thessalonikians.
You see, they are a peculiar breed. Yes, they will search for a parking stop right outside the place they're visiting (even if it means double-parking). They will take on?the opportunity for a coffee (or lunch) outside the office, everyday if they can. And they will sure be a bit more phobic than the average Joe about whoever is not from around here. But consistently throughout the years they are also blessed with being easy, joyful and very fun. The fun you find in small cities that can dream big.
If you want the latest on the city's tips shoot us an email. Have a lovely Sunday!
