Athens to London | Flying Home During Lockdown

Athens to London | Flying Home During Lockdown

In this video we wake up in Athens for the last time before leaving Greece after almost three months exploring the country.

This is our final travel day of 2020 as we fly back to London for two weeks of isolation. We decided that as the northern hemisphere was headed into winter time and lockdowns were starting again that sadly heading home for a while might be a good idea. We have exciting plans now for 2021 so watch this space for what’s coming up next!

Love Greece? Here’s our other videos in our Greek Series:

Upcoming Videos!

Join us in the next few videos as we look back at our top travel memories of 2020. Although it looks nothing like the adventures we had originally planned, we’re so thankful for what we discovered in our first year of full time travel.

A British couple from just outside London, England. We got married in 2018 and decided instead of a honeymoon we’d travel the world together. We saved money and travel points, quit our jobs, rented our house out and boarded a one way flight. We started this Youtube channel to share our experiences with friends, family and anyone who plans to travel to the places we’re visiting. We leave TKT tips/facts on our vlogs and blogs to give information that we wish we’d had before visiting. We hope you find our content useful :)

Thanks so much for watching you lovely people!😊
If you liked the video, please give it a thumbs up.👍🏼
We work super hard every week to create new travel videos and every single one of you watching makes it all worthwhile! ☺️

[WITYTRAVELS]

Great video! You made the most of your 9 months of traveling and have inspired us a lot in our full-time travels. Smoothie and taking in the Greek sunshine was a nice way to end the international adventure.

[TheAverageTourist]

What a travel day to end the travels! I hope the last few months of 2021 and beyond is much better for all of us travellers. Such a nice trip down memory lane though!

[Explorcation]

Hey guys, what a year 2020 was. We know it wasnt the year you had planned but you made the most it and made some incredible memories.

Kirsty's cutlery kit is a great idea! Very interesting you were questioned about the straw and not the knife 😆

[tyxeri]

Somehow this video appeared on my screen and a wave of nostalgia overwhelmed me! Yes, sir! I felt nostalgic for those first days of the lockdown! 🥺

[TravelInteresante]

It has been great to watch your adventures. You made the best of your year of travel despite the pandemic. Wow the flight ticket back home was only $37?! Nice flashbacks of the memories on the plane. So many memories you collected, glad you had your jackets. Really liked watching this video 😊

[KelbyAdamOurLifethroughalens]

Ah this video made me have such a mixture of emotions! We really hope you guys are still going to do Everest Base Camp. We enjoyed your travels through Europe and got to see a lot through your videos.

[thetravellingwelshman]

Wow, that must be a very strange experience to fly during this time! But I guess it feels even nicer to get back home too! ! New friend here to support you my friend 😁🙌🏻

[BeingBedingfield]

Can’t even imagine how emotional this must’ve been for you 🥺 It’s great that you still managed to grow your channel under these circumstances and that you have so many amazing travel memories!
As usual, LOVE the flashbacks as you took off on the plane 😁
Really cool that you found that map and compared your original plan to what actually happened. Hopefully you’ll get to do all your original travels soon 😬
Can’t believe you had to wait 10 hours at the airport 🙈😅

[TheMapPinners]

Awww thanks for another wonderful video, guys! You both did such an amazing job making the most of such a crazy situation - it was so fun to follow your journeys through it all. All your flashbacks were really sweet reminders of your adventures. Glad you had such a beautiful last day in Athens to send you off! And I can’t believe how cheap your flight home was! £37?! Amazing. That’s funny that your bags actually costed more than the flight itself. Also Rachel, who’s spent Christmas in the UK many times, picked E-5-D! I’ll have to try After Eight next time I’m in the UK

[SorgiStories]

The most enjoyable video I’ve ever watched while pushing a piece of furniture in our new house! Blue skies of Greece are so enticing while it blinds Kirsty!
And we could all use more coffee!
Those had to be weird memories seeing your departure point for such a long, strange, wonderful, incredible trip - and time of growing, and growing together!

[stephenwarren]

Really great footage of your Finland 🇫🇮 travels. Will have to visit myself

[lindae]

Typical the weather was great as you left, just to make it even harder! Long time hanging around at the airport, glad you managed to get something to eat & drink! Love the flashbacks on the flight, they were great!
Sad your plans changed so much, but at least you enjoyed all that you did get to see & do. Typical UK weather to greet you!!!

[LucasWorldTravel]

Wow, 37 pounds! What a cheap flight! And what an adventure! It's so interesting to hear your original itinerary versus your Plan B itinerary versus your flying by the seat of your pants itinerary. You've had quite a year, but the real question is...in hindsight do you regret going, or do you feel like going was the best thing you ever did?

[Sergio_Matiash]

Hi guys)) we need the new episode from you! Even smth local, doesn't matter

[eddyboston]

1) Never desecrate a donut! (I say that with ZERO sarcasm). I support your disappointment fully!! 2) great tip on the bamboo cutlery (I am on Amazon as we speak.. which as I type this seems ironic, given the packaging to ship the item probably equals many sets of plastic forks). but still, great idea. thx!

[justmeandmyself]

Is Athens as of now still in Lockdown??

[ΠαναγιώτηςΠαπουτσής]

Don't need taxi in Athens with a cheap tickets with metro all its ok, Athens has a very good metro for all tourist places for port for islands, and for the airport don't need spend money for taxi .

[SorgiStories]

How could anyone let that donut get ruined?? 🤪 #FirstWorldProblem

[shubhag]

Namaste bro & sis. Please come to visit India 🙏
