    May 10, 2022 in Italy ⋅ ☀️ 26 °C

    Woke up early to see the David (again). Then just strolled through Florence over the Goldsmith bridge, passed the Palazzo Vecchio, Palazzo Pitti etc. Took a quick nap and then went out again to buy post cards and the like, drank an Aperitif and took some Pizza back to the hostel.Read more

    May 14, 2022 in Italy ⋅ 🌙 17 °C

    Went to Rome for the day! Started out with the Vatican and caught a look of the Peter's dome and the sistine chapel before moving on to the trevi fountain. We stopped for lunch on our way to the colosseum and strolled along the monument and Forum Romanum until we could go inspect the inside of the huge amphitheater.
    We ended the day by all getting tattoos at the Eternal City Parlor:).

  • Lazy day in Naples

    May 17, 2022 in Italy ⋅ ☀️ 22 °C

  • Mount Vesuvius and Pompeii

    May 18, 2022 in Italy ⋅ ☀️ 27 °C

    Took a guided day trip to Mount Vesuvius and Pompeii!! There's 20 active volcanoes around Naples (some under water) and the ashy nature around the Vesuvius is home to over 250 plant species and around 600 animal species. We hiked up to the very top of the new/second peak of Vesuvius, as the old/first one collapsed during its famous eruption in 79 AD. That was also when Pompeii was covered in ash. We visited the famous ruins and it was amazing to get to know a bit of old Roman culture.Read more

  • A day in Athens

    May 20, 2022 in Greece ⋅ ☀️ 21 °C

    After a trip to the doctor's office because of my sore throat, we spent the day exploring the archeological wonders of Athens. The Acropolis was astounding and the view was amazing!!
    That evening, we joined in on a pub crawl (non-alcoholic for me) and got to know Athens by night.Read more

  • Journey to Andros

    May 21, 2022 in Greece ⋅ ☀️ 20 °C

    Ended our stay in Athens one day early to catch a ferry to our first Greek island: Andros! The ferry ride was two hours long and afterwards we just chilled in our hotel room.

  • Exploring Andros

    May 22, 2022 in Greece ⋅ ☀️ 21 °C

    Even though I was feeling a little under the weather thanks the the antibiotics, we still rented a quad (you have to be 23 to rent a car) and drove over to a beach in Batsi and afterwards crossed the island to take a look at its capital: Andros.Read more

  • Moving on to Paros

    May 23, 2022 in Greece ⋅ ☀️ 22 °C

    After lounging at the pool in Andros, we took a 4 hour ferry to Paros, skipping the more popular island of Mykonos. We arrived quite late but got to see a beautiful sunset on deck.

  • Beach time once again

    May 24, 2022 in Greece ⋅ ☀️ 22 °C

    We spent the day in Paros by renting another quad (this one was kinda shitty) and driving about 15 minutes to a recommended beach, Kolympethres. The water was amazing and the rock formations around the beach looked super interesting.Read more

  • Jetsetters

    May 26, 2022 in Greece ⋅ ☀️ 30 °C

    Took a plane from Athens to Tirana (there was literally no other way of getting there...) and fought our way to the hostel in the city center. Albania is the first country we've visited that isn't part of the EU, cutting us off from data and our beloved Euros. But we made it work!Read more

  • Beautiful, beautiful Budva

    May 29, 2022 in Montenegro ⋅ ⛅ 24 °C

    Unfortunately, our first day in Budva was a bit cloudy, we we still went to the beach around noon and explored the tiny streets of the old town after lunch. The afternoon we were forced to spend inside, as the weather wasn't in our favour.Read more
