  Where in the world am I? In San Diego, talking about Thessoloniki Greece, Part 2 of 2.  Welcome back to the  Dr. Mary Travelbest Guide podcast. I recently returned from a 90-day journey around the world, and I'm excited to connect with fellow travelers and share experiences.  This episode covers driving and navigating at the same time, Thessoloniki, Greece, and my mistakes of not hydrating enough in Greece. The FAQ is: "I need help finding my way while driving." What advice can you provide me as I try to navigate while I drive? Answer: Here are three driving safety tips you can use right away. Mount your phone securely at eye level Use a dashboard or windshield mount to reduce the number of glances away from the road. Avoid holding your phone in your hand — it's both unsafe and illegal in many places. Reduce windshield glare Clean your windshield (inside and out) and dim your dashboard lights slightly. This helps your eyes adjust better to the darkness outside. Enable "Do Not Disturb While Driving" Stops texts or notifications from popping up on your screen, reducing distractions.   60-second confidence challenge Your challenge today  Confidence Challenge in navigation and driving If you like today's Confidence Challenge, my book series delves deeper into how to manage driving while navigating and on-the-go traveling as a solo woman, while moving through the 5 steps to solo travel, from easy to more challenging, with foreign language communication tips. . You can find the series at the link in the description.    See Book A for addressing this concern..  Find it on the website​​ at https://www.5stepstosolotravel.com/ or on Amazon. It's a several-part series. Today's destination is Thessaloniki, Greece Part 2 of 2    Fire, Faith, Markets, and Movement   Friday morning, I took the metro to the end of the line. It stopped. I went back. Stopped again in Fleming. Eventually, I  reached the sea. The bus systems don't work all of the time, One time I waited a long time and the driver never came back. but the subways were great. They were new and very clean. What did I discover? I took some walks and here's what I found:  Rowing clubs. Children learning to sail. No swimming.  Greek dancing is communal. Simple patterns. Everyone joins. I'll share more about that in my mistakes. Are you willing to look awkward for joy?     Roman Forum & Aristotle Square Near my hostel, Zeus is Loose, sits the Roman Forum — excavated layers of ancient civic life. Agora. Theatre. Public debate. Aristotle Square is today's meeting place — wide, open, social. This is the social heart of Thessaloniki. Wide, open, facing the sea — it's where: Locals meet friends Travelers people-watch Evening strolls begin Grab a coffee, sit under the arcades, and observe. In Greece, public life is not rushed. If you expect efficiency, you'll be frustrated. If you expect rhythm, you'll enjoy it.   But the city remembers trauma. Wooden homes burned, and with them a large portion of the Jewish quarter. In 1942, Jewish residents were deported to concentration camps, including Auschwitz. A once-thriving community was nearly erased. Ano Poli survived the Great Fire of 1917, so you'll see: Red-roofed traditional houses Ottoman-era architecture Stone city walls with sweeping views Climb in the late afternoon when it's cooler. The hills are real. Wear solid shoes.   Kapani Market,  once near a synagogue, is now a bustling local market. Locals shop here.  The White Tower sits right on the waterfront promenade and offers: A small museum inside with Thessaloniki's layered history An 8-story climb (slow and steady wins) 360-degree views over the sea and city If you only have one hour in town, this is the postcard moment. Go earlier in the day in summer — the heat builds quickly. History isn't distant here. It's layered under your feet. Thessaloniki is not flashy like Santorini. It is thoughtful. Complicated. Weathered. Here's what you need to know: Expect slow pacing — culturally and logistically. Sunday closures are normal. Nightlife starts late. English is spoken in tourism, but not everywhere. History here is heavy — especially Jewish history. Stay flexible. Plans will shift. My missteps: Travel Mistakes in Greece: I was afraid to let loose and dance.   Our tour ended at the seashore. I was asked to join the dance. I waited almost until the music ended to dance. I should have started from the beginning and had a great time. Don't miss out on dancing, even if you are afraid to look silly.   Connect with Dr. Travelbest 5 Steps to Solo Travel website Dr. Mary Travelbest X Dr. Mary Travelbest Facebook Page Dr. Mary Travelbest Facebook Group Dr. Mary Travelbest Instagram Dr. Mary Travelbest Podcast Dr. Travelbest on TikTok Dr.Travelbest onYouTube In the news  

Where in the world am I? In San Diego, talking about Thessoloniki Greece, Part 1 Welcome to the  Dr. Mary Travelbest Guide podcast. I returned from a 90-day journey around the world, and I'm excited to connect with fellow travelers and share experiences for world peace. Here is an FAQ about plane or train travel, Thessoloniki Greece, Part 1, and also about a health issue you don't want when you travel. Give a listen. I guide you to solo travel experiences to bring out your best. The FAQ is: If you could take a plane or a train, which would it be and why? Answer:  If I have the choice between a plane and a train, Most of the time… I choose the train. Now let's be practical. If the distance is extreme — say, cross-country or intercontinental — the plane wins on efficiency. At this stage of life, I value my energy. Six hours in the air may beat twenty hours of transfers. But when are both realistic options? Train. Here's why. First, the train allows me to arrive gently. There's no stripping down at security, no liquid anxiety, no rushing to a distant gate. I walk onto the train. I keep my water. I keep my dignity. That matters. Second, the scenery. At 50+, we understand that the journey is not separate from the destination. On a train, I see villages, farmland, people waiting on platforms, laundry on balconies. I watch life unfold. A plane gives me clouds. Third, ease of movement. I can stand up. Walk. Stretch. Visit the café car. Talk to someone if I choose — or not. For solo women, that flexibility feels empowering. Fourth, arrival point. Trains typically drop you in the center of town. Planes drop you 40 minutes away, followed by taxis, shuttles, and more logistics. Simplicity wins. Now — here's where I get skeptical of my own bias. If I'm exhausted… If connections are complicated… If safety or night travel becomes a concern…Going from Oslo to Bergen this past summer, we had a 7-hour delay, stranded in Voss due to the heated tracks. That was not unusual, I later learned. Side note: I did enjoy my time in Voss and learned to slow down. If I anticipate a delay like this, I will absolutely take the plane. Comfort and safety override romance. So my answer? If time is short and distance is long,,,,, fly. If time is flexible and distance is reasonable, take the train and let the world move past your window. At this stage of life, we're not just getting somewhere. We're experiencing how we get there. And that is the difference.   60-second confidence challenge Your challenge today  Confidence Challenge in Greece and on trains.

Today's destination is Thessaloniki, Greece Part 1 of 2   Greece: my bucket list trip: Arrival, Ancient Echoes, and Modern Reality Welcome to my planned Step 5 travel — the kind where you don't just visit a place… you live inside it. This week and next week, I'm taking you to Thessaloniki, Greece's second-largest city — layered with Roman ruins, Byzantine churches, Jewish history, and modern-day contradictions.    

In this episode of the Black Tower Podcast, we explore one of the most fascinating — and potentially world-altering — questions in The Wheel of Time: Why are some channelers dramatically stronger than others… and what happens now that channelers can have children together again? From the structured strength hierarchies of the White Tower to the raw power of the Asha'man, the series makes one thing clear: not all wielders of the One Power are created equal. But why? We break down: • The canon strength rankings among Aes Sedai and Asha'man • Evidence that the ability to channel — and level of strength — may be genetic • The impact of the White Tower's breeding stagnation  The Sea Folk, the Aiel, and isolated channeling bloodlines • What changes in the Fourth Age now that male and female channelers can openly form families • Whether we are about to see an explosion in average power levels • And what that means for the future of the Pattern Is the One Power evolving? Is strength in the Power hereditary? Could the Fourth Age become the strongest Age yet? Join us as we follow the threads of blood, power, and destiny — and speculate about what the Turning of the Wheel may bring next.

Welcome back, friends! There's action at the rebel Aes Sedai camp as Romanda, of all people, pieces together the "Halima" situation after an impactful visit from Merise and Narishma.Then Egwene is completely bossing the White Tower from within, setting in motion all sorts of plans, resisting and confounding the Aes Sedai and winning over all the novices.Elaida on the other hand has completely lost touch with reality.And finally Mat is reunited with Talmanes after leaving the menagerie!

Rhuidean is not just a ruin in the Aiel Waste—it is a mechanism of the Pattern. In Part 2 of our Black Tower Podcast series on Rhuidean, we break down why this mysterious city may be the most important city in all of Randland. This episode dives deep into the elements that make Rhuidean unique and irreplaceable: • The Glass Columns and how they preserve history, enforce truth, and shape leaders • The city's impossible architecture, fog, and mist—and what they suggest about Age of Legends technology and ter'angreal design • Rhuidean's role in Aiel politics, clan leadership, and the enforced cycle of revelation and obedience Unlike the White Tower or the great capitals of the Westlands, Rhuidean does not accumulate power. Instead, it filters it—breaking those who cannot bear the truth and reshaping those who must. Stay tuned for Part 3 coming mid February!

In this episode of The Black Tower Podcast, we dive deep into the mysterious and often-overlooked Kin — the group of women who walked away from the White Tower and built something of their own. Join us as we explore:

In this special episode, we journey back to the beginning of Amazon Prime Video's The Wheel of Time, revisiting the emotional stakes, character awakenings, and epic world-building that launched the series. Featuring interviews with Zoë Robins, Madeleine Madden, Josha Stradowski, and Marcus Rutherford, we explore how Season One set the tone for a saga of destiny, power, and transformation.

Most readers barely remember her name, but Jarna Malari's actions changed the course of the Wheel of Time forever. A Gray Ajah Sitter and secret Black Ajah sister, Jarna stood at the very heart of Tower politics — and used her position to serve the Shadow. In this episode, we explore: • Who Jarna Malari was and why her rank mattered • Her role in the assassination of Amyrlin Seat Tamra Ospenya • How her actions crippled the Tower's search for the Dragon Reborn • The irony of her downfall at the hands of Ishamael, who saw her recklessness as a threat • What her brief but impactful story says about the Shadow's control of the White Tower Though she died in 983 NE, years before the Last Battle, Jarna Malari's choices shaped the path of the Dragon Reborn and revealed just how deeply the Black Ajah had infiltrated the Tower.

This week on the Black Tower Podcast, it's just Reese and Andrew holding down the Tower! Join us as we dive deep into the mysteries, lies, and carefully chosen words of the Aes Sedai. Is the White Tower's secrecy and manipulation truly necessary for the survival of the world, or has their web of half-truths done more harm than good? From the Oaths to their political games, we unravel the Cult of Secrecy surrounding the Aes Sedai and debate whether their actions are justified—or the spark of chaos that shaped the Wheel of Time world. Bring your thoughts, your hot takes, and maybe a ward against the Red Ajah—we're going in!

And Knife of Dreams kicks things off with a BANG!Galad makes some big moves in the Whitecloaks organisation.Rodel Ituralde starts his raids on the Seanchan in Tarabon, putting his grand plan in action.Suroth gets annoyed and takes Rodel Ituralde's bait.Pevara formally gets assigned the job of approaching the Black Tower about bonding Asha'man as warders, and learns Talene has been summoned by the Black Ajah Supreme Council.Alviarin smells a rat, and not just one of the rats in the Tower.

In today's episode we will talk about the Imperative mood in Greek. Emily and Danai will first engage in a dialogue with suggestions of what to do in Thessaloniki and then explain the use of the Imperative mood.D: Emily, I want to visit Thessaloniki! What do you suggest I do there?E: Oh, perfect! You'll have an amazing time! First of all, take a walk along the beach to see the White Tower up close and climb all the way to the top. The view is incredible!D:I already love this idea! Where else should I go?E: Go to the Upper Town and the Castles. There, you'll see the Heptapyrgion, and of course, the view of the entire city from above. Also, visit the Hagia Sophia, the Rotunda, and the Church of Saint Demetrius—they're among the most historic churches in the city.D:I probably won't be able to do all of this in one day, right?Ε:Most likely not. It's better to plan on needing two to three days to see all of that, plus maybe visit a museum, like the Archaeological or Byzantine Museum, which are both in the city center.D: Alright then. What about food? What should I try?E: Well, definitely take a walk around Ladadika for lunch, and also go there in the evening for drinks. Of course, after that, for dessert, you should try "trigona Panorama," and for breakfast, at least once, have bougatsa with cream.D: Wow! Everything sounds delicious! There's no way I'm not trying "trigona"! Everyone's telling me about them!Ε: They're definitely amazing! But there are also lots of other syrupy sweets to try.D: Got it… I'm going for gastronomic tourism! Ε: Yes! And don't forget to walk around Aristotelous Square and have a freddo.D: Of course, I can't wait for a proper freddo espresso!Ε: You have to!D: It looks like I'll need to write all this down so I don't forget!Ε: Good idea! Make a list for each day so you can manage to see and do everything!D: I think I'll really like Thessaloniki because there's so much to see and do!Ε: Exactly!

#thewheeloftime Separated from his friends, Rand builds a new life for himself while trying to find ways to train. A new novice in the White Tower takes an interest in Egwene, just as Liandrin does with Nynaeve. Perrin finds himself in trouble with an unknown enemy. Moraine takes extra steps to continue to keep Lan at arm's length. Liandrin lashes out when Nynaeve discovers her secret. Mat's attempts at escape provides him with an unexpected (possible) ally. Nynaeve prepares to take the next step in her training.

#thewheeloftime Six months after Rand's "death" at the Eye of the World, the group from the Two Rivers is picking up the pieces, and struggling in the process. Nynaeve and Egwene are novices in the White Tower, where Nynaeve's reluctance to channel brings her the wrong kind of attention. Perrin is on the hunt for Padan Fain, while Mat is an unwilling guest of Liandrin. Moraine does her best to shut out Lan after losing her powers, which leaves her vulnerable to danger.Mentioned in this episode: JordanCon, a Science Fiction/Fantasy literature convention founded in honor of Robert Jordan, author of the Wheel of Time, which will take place April 25-27 in Atlanta, GA.

In today's episode you will expand your vocabulary and learn different ways to ask or give directions in Greek! Emily and Danai will first engage in a conversation talking about how to get to the white towel and they will explain some basic phrases and words. E: Εμ…Συγγνώμη; / Um... Excuse me? D: Παρακαλώ! / Yes, how can I help you? E: Θέλω να πάω στον λευκό πύργο, αλλά χάθηκα. Προς ποια κατεύθυνση πρέπει να πάω; / I want to go to the White Tower, but I got lost. Which direction should I go? D: Λοιπόν, θα πρέπει να πάτε προς την αντίθετη κατεύθυνση από αυτήν που είστε τώρα. /Well, you should go in the opposite direction of where you are now. E: Είναι πολύ μακριά; /Is it far? D: Όχι πολύ. Θα χρειαστεί να περπατήσετε λίγο. /Not really. You'll need to walk a bit. Ε: Δεν πειράζει! Προς τα πού να πάω; /That's fine! Which way should I go? D: Είναι εύκολο. Θα περάσετε απέναντι και θα προχωρήσετε όλο ευθεία προς τα κάτω, μέχρι το φανάρι. Στο φανάρι θα στρίψετε δεξιά και στο τέταρτο στενό θα στρίψετε αριστερά. Θα προχωρήσετε όλο ευθεία μέχρι να φτάσετε στην παραλία. Αφού φτάσετε στην παραλία, θα δείτε τον λευκό πύργο στο αριστερό σας χέρι. /It's easy. You'll cross to the other side and walk straight ahead until you reach the traffic light. At the traffic light, turn right, and at the fourth narrow street, turn left. Keep walking straight until you reach the beach. Once you get to the beach, you'll see the White Tower on your left. E: Πόση ώρα δηλαδή είναι από εδώ ο λευκός πύργος; /How long is it from here to the White Tower? D: Περίπου 15 λεπτά με τα πόδια. /About 15 minutes on foot. E: Μπορώ να πάρω λεωφορείο; /Can I take a bus? D: Φυσικά! Μπορείτε να πάρετε το λεωφορείο νούμερο 3, που περνάει από αυτήν τη στάση, αλλά θα κάνει περισσότερη ώρα γιατί κάνει κύκλο. /Of course! You can take bus number 3, which passes through this stop, but it'll take longer because it makes a loop. E: Εντάξει! Ευχαριστώ πάρα πολύ! /Okay! Thank you very much! D: Παρακαλώ. Καλά να περάσετε! /You're welcome. Enjoy your time! E: Ευχαριστώ! /Thank you! Check out our Instagram @greek_lang_experts or visit our website for our upcoming ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Greek classes⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠!

The Chapel of St John the Evangelist (St John's Chapel) is an 11th century Christian chapel of Norman architecture, in the White Tower of the Tower of London. Built in 1080, St John's is the oldest surviving complete chapel from the early Norman period, and functions today as a chapel royal.  This recording features footsteps inside the ancient space, and the piped recording of angelic choir singing.  Recorded by Cities and Memory. 

We're back with a brand new book! And this one is already shaping up to be a bit of a test. We're surprisingly divided on the prologue here, which makes for some good conversation. 3h of it!We're treated to a scattershot of points of view, 7 of them over 80 pages. Rodel Ituralde joins the narrative, we check in with Eamon Valda and the surviving Whitecloaks, Gabrelle is observing a change in Logain, Yukiri is navigating heavy under currents in the White Tower, Gawyn feels cornered, Bashere sees things intensify in Andor when Caemlyn is besieged, and finally Samitsu and Sashalle plot, meet Loial and Krldin and save Dobraine from almost certain death.It's a lot of setup, and some of us got more out of it than others, so let us know what you got out of it via any of the social media links below:X - @BloodAndAshPodEmail - moritz@bloodandashespodcast.comYouTube - Blood and AshesFacebook - BloodAndAshesPodcastWeb - www.bloodandashespodcast.com (Now with voicemail capabilities!)Discord - Blood and Ashes (If the link doesn't work, drop me a message and I'll email you a fresh one)Merch - Blood and Ashes Merch!

It's one of the most famous landmarks in the world. The White Tower, or more recently, the Tower of London. If you've visited London you likely took time to go see it. The post 460 – The White Tower first appeared on The British History Podcast.

This week is the third part of our mini-series on spaces we love. We'll be joining Assistant Curator Alfred Hawkins, who has chosen to take us into the Chapel of St John the Evangelist, at the Tower of London.   As the most important space in the White Tower, the Chapel Royal holds huge historic significance in representing the Norman Conquest's power, control and religious dominance. Alfred explores how a recent project will protect this space of immeasurable importance, for generations to come. To view inside the Chapel of St John the Evangelist, take our Virtual Tour with Google Arts & Culture.

In this episode we look at three of the greatest of Ulthuan's heroes. We start with Eltharion the Grim, Prince of Yvresse, he who finally brought about the defeat of Waaagh! Grom and who holds two destinies and two miniatures. We then turn to the twin princes Teclis, High Loremaster of Hoeth and Warden of the White Tower, and Tyrion, Defender of Ulthuan, the greatest living High Elven warrior of this age, perhaps even Aenarion reborn.

In this episode we start with the great Scouring of the Dark Elves by the Phoenix King Tethlis and his descent into bloodlust and scorched earth tactics. This is followed by a dissection of the reign of Bel-Korhadris who with the creation of both the White Tower and the Great Hunt shaped the culture and society of Ulthuan, perhaps more than any other king, into what it is today. We define their relationship to the winds of magic and what makes their mages so powerful. We look at the reign of the artist king Aethis who beautified Ulthuan to an extreme degree and neglected all else allowing the Cults of excess to resurge. Support Us Buy from Element Games.
