  • Due to unexpected changes in the weather and our ferry schedule we found ourselves on the island of Syros for a couple of days. We knew nothing about this island until arriving and my goodness were we IMPRESSED by this island!! We had an absolutely AMAZING time and we would HIGHLY recommend this place to anyone visiting the Greek Cyclades!

    Syros is the capital of Cyclades, that's why you see more people during low season. All public services are there, so all the cycladians are going there for these things. You are such good friends, happy souls! Hope you enjoyed your stay in my country and come back when ever you feel like missing it!

      Yes, we found that out after we had already left Syros but that makes so much sense as to why it was so much busier than the other islands we visited around the same time. Greece was one of our favourite countries of the trip and we really hope we will be back one day 🥰

      @@robynandgraham at least you loaded your minds with beautiful images to keep you warm through the hard winter. Thank you for responding and in my opinion the best time to visit Greece is early June or late September. Personally i prefer June because the day is bigger. Have a great winter!

    So many stairs! My legs continue to burn but what a wonderful reward at the top! Good luck with the waves on the ferry - and can't wait to ride a scooter too! I am having such virtual fun! Hugs and love XXX

    Hey you two, thanks for reviving some great memories for me. It's cool to see how things have changed since I visited when I was 20.
    Robyn's comment about not having a map without Nerissa present made want to check that you guys know about offline maps. Load up the maps when you have wifi and use them live continuously without any internet. I know google maps has it, and I'm pretty sure apple's maps do too.
    Happy exploring!
