The theater of Epidavros is the most perfect and best preserved of the ancient theaters and if you stand where the actors would have stood and drop a pebble, you can hear it on the top row, provided that the place is not full of tourists. It seats up to 14,000 people and is still used in the summer for the Epidavros Festival in July and August. The site of Epidavros was a sanctuary to Asklepios, with a healing spring and was one of the major healing centers of the ancient world. The ancient site is fairly extensive and dates from around the 3rd and 4th Century BC. There are ruins of several temples, a stadium and buildings from ancient Greek and Roman periods. The museum was built in 1905 and houses some of the artifacts found on the site including statues and pottery and reconstructions of the pediments of the ancient Asklepios and parts of the temple.
You don’t necessarily have to be a travel journalist to be qualified to review a destination, but with so much to learn about any one destination it’s no surprise how many of the reviewers probably missed out on some essential local information before traveling to a new place. For example, even the most generic travel guide to Paris covers basic etiquette and local dining customs, yet when I became a tour guide in 2004 I realized a lot of my clients – who are generally well-traveled and conscientious travelers – thought they were getting bad service because they’ve been told “everyone knows Parisians are rude”. All it took were a few shared tips on local customs and etiquette for them to realize not only that their waiter wasn’t ignoring them at the end of their dinner, but also that the secret to getting good service in any boutique or bakery begins with saying “Bonjour Madame/Monsieur” as soon as you walk through the door.

Freelancing is similar in some ways to blogging. For one thing, you can make money online from the comfort of your home. But there are a few important distinctions. Many freelance writing positions cover specialized topics for online publications and may require expert knowledge of the subject. You could specialize in writing about food, health care, business or just be an all-rounder. However, being able to point to expertise or experience in a particular niche helps you get more work. Writing’s not the only way to make money freelancing, of course; anyone with graphic design or programming experience can find contract jobs that pay well and provide challenging work, too. There’s a sizable market for people who can take professional-quality photographs. Stock photo platforms like Getty images allow you to post photos online. From major corporations to mom-and-pop shops of all kinds, absolutely every business owner must grasp social media basics – or find themselves floundering.
The educational component of her program was also disappointing. She had visions of gaining an insider’s view of a resort’s culinary operations. Her training plan said she would learn banquet menu planning, work on four different food preparation stations in the main kitchen and learn fine-dining cooking techniques. Instead, for the first five months, L. reported for work at 3 a.m. “Mostly all of the products came from a box, so I wasn’t able to see how you do it from scratch,” she said. She found the early-morning shift wearing. L. has anemia, and she said the lack of sleep made her sick several times. She was eventually assigned to work the dinner shift, where she plated pre-made desserts for three months. Just before she was laid off, more than nine months into her internship, she spent several weeks on the midday shift to bake cupcakes and layer cakes. The cultural events described in the training plan included invitations to staff events such as the year-end holiday party, a winter ski trip, a spring golf outing and Fourth of July festivities complete with fireworks.
