Mixed of Romanic and Greek cultures in the modernity. I had the feeling that the locals didn't care enough about their roots. Their antient monuments are abandoned with seaweed growing and not even signalized. The original Pane Tree of Hypocrates is been killed and the replacement that is 600 years old is in a cage. All the big monuments have a big ugly trash can next to it so is impossible to take a good picture of the site. Two things got my attention: the solar panels on the buildings and the beautiful setup of touristic schooner.l... read more

Called the butterfly island.Very autentinc no tourism at all. Hot, no wind. very desertic 3 villages and 2 taxis in the entire island. Very friendly though.

Once inside Thira Island the approach of Santorini was breathtaking. I have never seen anything like this before in my life...tand I would love to get back. The villa is in the top of the hill. There are public skycars, steps or dunkey rides to get to the top. Gina and I raced each other to the top. About a 30 minute good hike. Incredible view. Very touristic and expensive but I could spend an entire week taking pictures, drawing and reading from any of the terraces. Unfortunately we didn't stay long and continued our journey...... read more
