Hi Zandesiro
As I'm typing this, I'm watching Patra dissapear on the horizon from the lounge window on the ferry. Just spent a month in Greece. On my way to Italy now.
Judging by your last name it sounds like you're from Peloponisos. Would have been nice to hook up with you for a ......maybe next time. Welcome to the HUBB.
Cheers for now. Neville

Greece, ah what a wonderful country. When we were in northern Greece in late 2009 we had such a great time, now we'll be doing southern greece and island hopping from Italy across to Turkey later this year. Can't wait.

Membership - help keep us going!
Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.
You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
