welcome to my journal

Greece is so beautiful, I can’t begin to explain how breathtaking the views are- these pictures truly don’t do it justice. We spent our time in Athens visiting the Acropolis and street markets (and ate at a REALLY good Mexican restaurant our last night), Santorini, and Mykonos. Santorini was incredibly busy with a day on a catamaran where we snorkeled and sailed around the island, I had a beautiful elopement with a couple and Santorini wedding vendor team made of dreams, we drove a little blue Jimny around the island (very terribly), had a photographer take our photos as well, and explored Oia. In Mykonos, we walked around Old Mykonos town, went to the Mykonos Brewing Company, spent some time at a beach club on the south side of the island on Paradise Beach, and went to the Scandinavian bars (a true legend). On our last day in Mykonos before heading back to Athens, we took a tour of the island of Delos. If you are a history nerd, or love Greek mythology, then add this to your list! So much history is still present on this island.

I highly recommend a visit to Greece! We had a fantastic time and the weather was perfect- it was the end of busy summer season and was starting to cool off (end of September). If you’ve never had lamb chops or octopus, you should try it while you are there! I tried octopus for the first time and was very pleasantly surprised!!
