I have now ridden enough ferries for.. Well the rest of my life really. I went to 3 different Greek islands, each with a very different attitude and I enjoyed each thoroughly.
Santorini was my first stop, which was full of tourists sightseeing, however after watching the sunset things calmed down quite a bit and the crowd in general was a little older
I quickly discovered through the lack of English direction that Syros was not at all touristy and had a very quite few days here, laying on the beach and eating gyros before heading of to Mykonos.
Mykonos was the opposite of Syros in that as soon as you stepped off the boat there were shuttles waiting to take you to wherever you were staying and club promoters left and right giving you fliers. In Mykonos I spent the day at the beach, a common theme on every island, and spent the nights out at beach-side clubs, my first night never actually going to sleep because by the time that idea came around the sun was out again and I couldn't bear the idea of sleeping inside with all the sunshine outside, so I attempted to nap poolside, I didn't go there to sleep..
After all my experiences with various Greek islands I am now attempting to leave Greece... Easier said than done! Greece has stopped all international trains and only one bus seems to leave a day, I am hoping to catch the bus tomorrow morning to start working my way North on my nomadic adventures...
