Mykonos Sunset
Not a bad view.From Turkey, I took a 2 hr ferry to Samos, Greece, spent the day walking around the town and then boarded a ferry to Mykonos. Known as the party island and gay man's haven, it was the starting point of my kick back, time to relax and get a tan portion of my trip.
I met Sarah, from London, on my ferry and we ended up staying at the same hotel and hung out for the next couple days. Rented scooters and toured the beaches of the island.
Mykonos - I loved it. Wish I stayed longer now. But if it was high season, I'm quite positive I would hate being there. Great beaches. Cute little streets. If you want to know what a mouse feels like in a maze, walk through the streets of Mykonos. (I'm sure the big guy upstairs was laughing at Sarah and I every time we made a turn and made a 2 minute walk a 15 minute journey). Can you say expensive!?? Jeesh, every designer shop is in Mykonos, and sunscreen costs about $20!
The last night, when Sarah and I were doing circles in the maze trying to get back to
My Travel Buddy
Sarah and I for a night on the town. our hotel, we stumbled upon an art gallery and the owner was outside having a drink. We went in and he showed us his beautiful art collection. Then he somehow started talking about finding your passion in life and being lucky enough to find his passion for art and bring it back to his home town to share it with others and to make a living out of it. We walked out and Sarah said, "That was for you." :-)
