Joanna Mikros
Leisure Travel Consultant, Greece and the Mediterranean
I am from:
Pittsburgh, PA
(by way of Greece!)
Education:
Degree in
Elementary Education
Specialties:
Luxury Vacation

Destination Focus:
Greece & the Mediterranean
About me:
I love
hotels! I used to spend my free time surfing the internet looking at all
the beautiful properties and dreaming about the day I would visit them.
I still do what I love, the only difference, now I make your dreams come
true.
I’ve lived
in:
Pittsburgh and New Jersey. But I have spent every summer in Greece!
Languages:
English
and Greek
Favorite destination: It
has to be Greece. Nothing can compare to that first moment when I get
off the plane in Athens, or that first day at the beach. I cherish those
moments every time, just like it’s the first. Greece is one of those
places that everyone needs to visit at least once, not only for the vast
history and culture, but for everything that it has to offer.
Favorite travel
memory:
Watching the sunset in Santorini, climbing up to the Acropolis 5 months
pregnant, meeting Donald Duck in Disneyworld, shopping in Milan and
strolling down the Paseo de Gracia in Barcelona!
Biggest travel
mishap:
Getting pulled off a cruise ship by the local authorities in Cyprus
because my mother bought duty free cosmetics and then gave them to my
aunt (that wasn’t legally entitled to receive them)! We were
interrogated for 3 hours!
If I could be
anywhere right now:
sitting on my balcony
in Greece in the early morning watching the sun come up!
I wouldn’t be there
without: my
frappe, (Greek iced coffee) and the people that I love!
Why you should
work with me: working with me will give
you an insider’s advantage when you visit Greece. I’ll let you know
ahead of time what to expect, both good and not so good!
Why I work for
Travelive: part
of the fun of traveling is experiencing things on your own, going on
your own schedule. We are able to offer that to every one of our clients
with our custom packages. We don’t open up a book and pick a trip for
you. We listen to your wants and plan the vacation of a lifetime WITH
YOU!
