We’re excited to see who will be part of what’s next for this amazing platform. Cheers from the XpatAthens team!

Here you will be able to enjoy thoroughly unspoiled landscapes that have only recently attracted the attention of international Nature lovers.

Along the lakeside road, a series of pavilions and small shops invite visitors to savor the exquisite traditional tastes and fragrances of the region’s particular delicacies. Locally produced pastry and confections, wine, and other specialties await to introduce the traveler to the real joys of Karditsa Prefecture.

One occasion you would not want to miss is the Carnival manifestations in Sofades, a few kilometers away from the capital of the Prefecture. They take place in the beginning of spring, and they signal the end of winter, still visible in the snow-capped mountains and hills in the distance.

The lightheartedness of time is reflected in the morning smile of the lake. Now, the excursions in the region's lower mountains, to a series of breathtaking sites centered on Plastiras Lake or in the Town of Karditsa, are a real enjoyment; from historic Ellinopyrgos to the cool Kanalia and Fanari, where the well-preserved old castle dominates the plain below. Another trip, a short ten kilometers from Karditsa Town, brings us to Aghios Athanassios hill, where we can see the remains of the Byzantine castle, now ruined, built with the stones of the ancient acropolis of Kalithiros, known from Hellenistic times (3rd to 1st centuries B.C.). On our way back, Aghios Georgios Village and its church are worth a visit.

The Greek side is apparently willing to agree to a moratorium on any steps that could affect the country’s fiscal targets and is ready to discuss other measures but is not willing to adopt the terms of the existing bailout. The proposal is due to be sent to Eurogroup chief Jeroen Dijsselbloem this morning and the Dutch finance minister will decide if it merits calling an extraordinary meeting of eurozone finance chiefs for Friday.

A European Union official told Kathimerini’s Brussels correspondent Eleni Varvitsioti that the problem with Greece asking for an extension of its loan agreement and not the terms that come with it may create problems in parliaments such as Germany’s, which have to approve the prolongation of the agreement.
