After a long bus ride it felt amazing to stop at a small town by the sea. I felt so at peace standing by the sea that I wasn’t sure I ever wanted to leave. The feeling reminded me of the song Peace by O.A.R. I stood leaning on the banister watching the waves hit the side. I closed my eyes, listened to the sound of the waves, and took a deep breath of the slightly salty air. I don’t think I’ve been that at peace in a long time. It felt like all my worries went away. I even got to stand on a ledge and feel the water wash over my feet. I can say that I’ve touched the Ionian Sea. It reminded me that I’m on this amazing trip to Greece and I need to enjoy ever second of it. I want to take a deep breath and take the time to take in my surroundings and realize how lucky I am.
