Sorry, gone travelling.

In May 2011 I set off on a 7 month journey. With nothing but a backpack on my back, my best friend by my side and a return ticket to EUROPE... Needless to say it was by far the most amazing 7 months of my absolute life!!! Somehow I was motivated enough (and stupid enough) to keep a travel blog going through the whole adventure, and so now, with technology being as fabulous as it is, our story is now roughly preserved on this silly blog.

It's hard you know, saying goodbye to our family and friends, kissing our comfortable beds goodbye, waving a sad farewell to the lives we've called home for the last 18 years... But this is the adventure of travelling, right?

"Don't be dismayed by good-byes. A farewell is necessary before you can meet again."

9th of May

Cats, cacti and Turtles.

Three words that don't usually belong together... unless you are climbing Lykavitos Hill. The hill is the tallest point in Athens and we decided we had to climb it. SO WORTH IT. THe view was amazing. Ontop was a bell tower, a greek flag and a Greek church. I cannot even begin to describe how breathtaking it really was. It was our last day in athens, and this the best way to spend it.

Tomorrow we board a ferry to MYKONOS :)
