TBG Celebrates Six Months Of Travel Blogging Teamwork

The members of the first network of Greece based travel bloggers gathered in St. Irene Square in Athens to celebrate six months of teamwork during a dinner hosted by Manas Kouzina-Kouzina.
 

The blogger members consist of both expats and Greek bloggers with an international reach.  Since TBG started in Jan. 2015, it has grown to 20 members: 

“We’ve proven that teamwork matters and by working together we learn from each other. When we go and visit Greek destinations, our social media reach really helps promote touristic businesses in Greece,” says Rebecca Hall, one of the first members of TBG.  
 

Today, TBG’s social media reach to date is:

Facebook: 46,547 

Twitter: 18,841

Instagram: 8,135

During the six month celebration, members consistently shared, tweeted and posted the various traditional Greek dishes enjoyed at the event.   Mana’s Kouzina-Kouzina is one of the Greek businesses that successfully opened during the crisis specializing in magirefta or slow-cooked and baked traditional dishes hailing from all over specific villages, areas and the islands of Greece.  Homemade desserts were delivered from Thessaloniki by blogger member Amber Charmei, the publisher of Provocolate.

TBG has helped to promote authentic experiences working with various businesses including Discover Greek Culture, Scooterise, Alternative Tours of Athens, Livin Lovin, The Clumsies, Grecotel Pallas Athena, Keadivers, Sattas Group, ZanteHotels4U and more.  TBG has educational partnerships with Xyni Glyfada as well as the International Health Tourism Conference.  The professional networking group has also participated in blogger familiarization trips at the Montanema Handmade Village in Central Greece, Kea and Zakynthos islands.  

Each TBG member is based in Greece and blogs about a specific Greece travel related theme such as family travel, food, adventure travel and culture.  Each member must meet specific professional criteria to be approved as a beginner or full-member. Currently, TBG is working with more destinations and businesses to plan more events and travel excursions until the end of the year.
