In her Facebook post, which has so far received 12,127 likes, 2,003 shares, and 905 comments, she stated: “Dear Ones - I've just spent four days in the most beautiful place I've ever seen on earth — Zagorohoria, Greece. If ever you have the opportunity to visit Zagorohoria, do try to come to this place. You will never regret it. This is not a version of Greece that you have ever seen, or ever dreamed of. This is a place of deep and ancient magic. Excuse my gushing, but I am basically now the official spokesperson for Zagorohoria! Someday, I must come back here. Till then — ONWARD to Athens, and beyond! The novel “Eat, Pray, Love” stayed for 200 weeks on the New York Times Paperback Best Seller List and remained in the first place for 57 weeks.
