Dear Prudence,

Just wanted to drop you a line to tell you how my trip has been going so far. As you know, I didn’t take a suitcase but decided on a 1 ___________ instead. I’m so glad I did because it’s been so much easier to carry around, particularly since I like to go off the beaten 2 ___________ where there aren’t a lot of tourists.

I went 3 ___________ through the Taygetos mountain 4 ___________ and although it was tiring, it was well worth it. It was so peaceful. I also visited the ancient castle of Mystras, which was incredible. The 5 ___________ are so friendly. Even though it’s difficult to communicate at times, I seem to be able to make myself understood because most people there can speak English.

Back in Athens, I went on a one-day coach 6 ___________ to Delphi. It wasn’t very informative although it was interesting to see the ancient 7 ___________ of the oracles. I plan to read up on it when I get back. I was wondering if you would consider hiring a 8 ___________ with me next time and we can go up to northern Greece. I’ve heard the 9 ___________ is breathtaking and there’s this place called Meteora that I’m dying to see.

My 10 ___________ is supposed to be at the end of this month, but I might just stay a bit longer!

Take care,

Byron
