Surprising trip to the snow

I actually didn’t realise the tour would take me to the top of Mount Olympos (not Olympus). Was amazing to be in the snow, more so because it was unexpected
Green Mosque… nearly

Nearly caused an international incident apparently as the guard didn’t like the way I took off my shoes?? He stood menacingly in the doorway and I decided I didn’t care much to see another mosqueWeiterlesen

Santorini 🙃🤨😢

Last day in Athens so checking out some more Archaeological sites. This cemetery and museum was very cool and just in the middle of the old town area.
Ancient Agora of Athens

Another Archaeological site in the centre of the city. It’s amazing the history that most locals walk past without a second glance!
One night in Artemida

Got to the coast; but it’s cold and miserable. Picked this hotel because they have a shuttle to the airport and the trip from Athens city is stressfully far away for an early flight.
