This is a long, boring post mostly to remind us of what we did in Greece, we sometimes feel like we have memory loss...

Athens arrival

On friday the 11th of August me and Caro arrived to Athens where Anna and Clara had already been staying for a few days. We arrived pretty late, around 7PM. And around 8/9PM we went for our first Greek meal with Per and AC. Then we strolled our way back to the apartment and came home around 1AM.

Our first night in Naoussa

Early in the morning, 12PM, we headed to Naoussa where we would be staying for a week ish. We took ubers and buses to a port in Athens and took a ferry to Parikia, a port in Paros. I bought a pair of hippie pants there. From Parikia we took a bus out to our little house. We instantly started to unpack all our stuff. 

Since it was a saturday Per and AC decided to let us go out but our curfew was at 2AM. We had dinner at Argusa which we'd use as a "home adress" to find our house. We went out for the first time in Naoussa and got some cocktails (Porn Stars and The Walking Dead) at the first cool bar we saw: Fouska. Then we strolled around for a bit and arrived to the Bridge Of Desperation (as we called it- it was where all thirsty people came to meet people). At the Desperation Bridge we got saluted to by a small Italian man. He also brought over his two friends. They were stereotypical Italians in their mid-twenties: their names Eduardo, Federico and ??, their mustaches, italian accents, "ciao bella" etc.  

Im not sure how we got to this point but we ended up taking a (after)midnight swim with them. They were all freezing but we with our viking blood thought it was warm as heck.

Uneventful beach day

Today we woke up at around 1PM and at 3PM we were heading to the little crappy beach located 5 minutes from our house called Piperi Beach. By now we'd already gotten to Naoussa pretty well. This afternoon we also decided to stop by a small cafe and get chocolate milkshakes/fruit salads etc. 

Later this night we went out to the square of bars by the beach and sea including Fouska, Aiola etc. 

Our curfew was at 2AM so we went home in time more or less. Caro fell asleep immediately but me Anna and Clara couldnt sleep so we decided to explore our neighborhood a bit. We went to lots of rooftops to see which one was the best one and we found the perfect one: a trashy, abandoned rooftop. We sat and talked for a while and at like 6AM we went back and went to bed.

Dryos + shitfacing

Waking up at 3PM as usual, we decided to go down to Dryos/Glyfa to meet Caroline and her boyfriend Andreas (whose family has a house there). It was really nice, we spent the day at the beach, went cliffjumping, me Caro and Clara decided to get cocktails at a beach bar, and then we got invited to stay for dinner. We took the bus home in the evening. 

August 19th Sat;

Then we jumped on the ferry and stepped off on Mykonos. We took a swim as soon as we got there and tanned for an hour more or less. Then we went for a small pre-dinner constising of tzatziki and hummus with bread and Cokes. We realized how expensive Mykonos was when we got the 30€ check for 2 appetizers and 4 drinks. 

Like every other day, we woke up at 1PM ish and got out of the house at 3PM. Today we were going back to Parikia mainly to shop. 

August 20th Sun;

The night started off alright, we were all dancing and having fun at Aiola, singing along to the same songs they'd played the whole week. After a while Caro headed home, while me, Anna, and Clara stayed out. Me staying out wasnt really a good idea because i ended up being the fifth wheel all night. After most bars had closed, me, Anna and Antony, and Clara and Marcel headed a small store to buy some beers.  At the store we met a non-attractive probs 40+ year old pervert who kept following us for some reason. We went to the beach around 4/5AM for a swim. We sat down there but my awkwardness was way too strong so i made up an excuse to leave for a while. I called Caro and talked to her for half an hour. I was indecisive about going home or not. Clara and Marcel were now getting it on in the sea which made me feel even more like a fifth wheel haha. But then Anna called from the beach and told me another guy had showed up. He was a not-so-attractive 14 year old but who apparently had a lot of weed that we could smoke. We werent gonna say no to weed, even though it was probably around 6AM. We started strolling around when suddenly we see Per walking towards us down in the harbour, near the Bridge of Desperation. Me, Anna, and Clara instantly started panicking and just started running in the other direction. "Our guys" obviously thought this was a bit weird and Antony even suggested that they stayed and talked to him. So we tried running away from him but he caught up and started screaming. We had unleashed the beast. We walked home in shame while trying to convince him we had gone to bed and then gone up again at 6AM for a morning swim. When we came home we immediately went to bed. 

One helluva weird fuckin night

Same old story, we woke up around 2/3PM and decided to go somewhere. We took a bus in the afternoon to Santa Maria (a great beach according to tripadvisor). We "rented" beach chairs and went for a swim and then tanned the whole afternoon. We actually met up with Mike and Todd (and their dog) which was quite nice. There was also an outside club/bar which we stayed at for a while. It was pretty nice, we bought a mojito and a greek salad, but the people (men) there were a bit too thirsty and gangly, so we got a bit bored of the place and went back to Naoussa.

August 15th Tue;

In the evening we rented a car and drove up to our mysterious Alice in Wonderland-looking house. Then we went back to Mykonos center for dinner at a really fancy restaurant called Katerina's bar. 

Then back on the beach totally out of the blue we see the Marcel/Danny family strolling around. We talked to them for a while and found out that they were there to wakeboard. Only a while later Antoni showed up to wakeboard too. We (Caro mostly) werent entirely sure if we wanted to hang out with them but we mostly stayed for Anna and Antony. Then they asked if we wanted to come along to wakeboard and that they could give us a ride back to Naoussa later. On the wakeboard boat only some people could go on so Anna and Clara went on while me and Caro waited.

Farewell Naoussa 

Santa Maria beach day

When we thought we would head back to Naoussa, their dad said that they couldnt drive us because we'd be too many. (They sort of made us miss the last boatbus home) so Marcel called a cab and gave us a 20€. Before leaving the beach, we talked to their family for like an hour and their mom offered to take a group pic of us all (which is actually pretty cute). 

This night was a wild one. We went out to the usual bars, but especially Aiola (our favorite with Pitbull as the bartender). We danced all night, well until 2AM when we had to go home to pretend sleep, but shortly we'd run out again and keep dancing. Clara and Pitbull had decided to meet up later this night and have a lil fun together. Somehow me, Anna and Caro got in contact with three Greek guys. Their names were Antony, Danny and Marcel. The bar closed at 4AM with the teenage anthem Young, Wild and Free. We all went outside to chill but we were a bit sweaty from dancing so we wanted to go for a midnight swim (a 4AM swim really). When in the sea we decided to play a game where we'd go on each others shoulders and try to push each other off. Anna went on Antonys, Caro went on Marcels, and i went on Dannys. After we all fell in the sea, one thing led to another, and we basically just started hooking up with a guy each. We still cant believe how ridiculous it mustve looked from another view point. From this moment things happened but there's no need for further details. In the end it was a pretty nice night. We met up with Clara and came home around 6AM but were too weirded out to go sleep.  We went to the abandoned rooftop and just talked for probably around 2 hours. 

Around 11AM we took a bus to Parikia and said farewell to Naoussa. Because our ferry was delayed, we got to spend some more time on Paros. We went to the stores we liked in Parikia and bought some shite. 

This evening we decided to go out, for the 5th night in a row. We did the usual, went to the bar square, hit the club (Aiola), jammed to the same songs that they played each and every night. (Touchdown vibes). This night we also hung out a bit by the Desperation Bridge. Me and Anna went to buy cigs and gum when we bumped into two fine 17 and 22 year old men. They both had long hair, one had light brown, and the other had black. They were both fairly attractive. But one of them, the "Greek God" was extremely gangly (drunk). He made out with both Caro and Clara. The other guy, Jason, but we called him Cooper (as in Cooper from Eurotrip), was sweet and clueless. We hung out with them and then showed them to Aiola. They were actually pretty fun to be with, but while in Aiola, we started dancing with the cute 16 and 17 year old French guys we had laid eyes on before. Somehow we slowly (unintentionally) danced away from Cooper and the Greek God and were now only with the French. I felt bad for them, since they were actually nice guys, well half of them at least. Anna and Caro got talking with the French guys and we found out that their names were Yasha and Anatole. Anna took Yashas number and we started heading home. We had a brief deep talk once we got home because I was feeling a bit down but we went to bed shortly. 

We were all really sad this night, mostly because we missed everything about Naoussa so much (we got way too attached), and also because we were desperate to go out and dance and party but we couldnt. So we went home around 12AM and literally just went to bed. There ended our 8 day-going out streak. Very sad. 

We woke up at around 1PM as usual and took a boatbus to Monastiri beach just because we hadnt been there yet. Anna was trying to meet up with Antony but it seemed like it wouldnt work out. We took a swim as soon as we got there and then layed down to tan. We also went to a restaurant a minute away from the beach and had tzatziki, bread, and some apple cider. 

Midnight swim with Greek bois + Pitbull

We stayed at the crappy Parikia beach and had the worst lunch ever. We ordered nasty things like soggy fries and pasta that tasted like babyfood. We headed back home with the bus around 7PM. Then we went to our rooftop to chill for a bit and eventually we went out for dinner. 

Then they headed back to Naoussa in their car and we waited for our cab. Because of what happened yesterday with Per, and because we had to wake up early in the morning, we werent allowed to go out, or at least not later than 12PM. Of course we'd still do anything to go out and enjoy our last night in Paros. So we went for dinner, ordered greek salad, fried zuccinis, french fries, glasses of wine, some scotch and Coke. Between 11/12PM we headed to Aiola and took some vodka shots. Then when our curfew came around we deciced to go home and stay for like half an hour, then stuff our beds with pillows and clothes and sneak out. Believe it or not it actually worked. We went back out (paranoid as fuck though) and waited for the Greek guys at the Desperation Bridge. At first they invited us to their house but Caro still felt weird so when they showed up we all headed back to Aiola. We started dancing and danced practically all night. Well me and Caro didnt really see the point in staying out too long. My awkwardness had never been stronger and i felt super uncomfortable all the time + danny had gone home and i still think he hates me. Marcel and Clara went for a beach walk to talk and then to another bar. In the meantime Anna was on the beach with Antony having a lil fun. Clara didnt actually end up with Marcel, later this night she met up with Pitbull once again and spent some quality time before being separated. Me and Caro had been dancing with two girls who we're not sure but might be the guys' sisters. However they were really nice and fun to dance with. As soon as the bar closed (4AM) we headed back home. Anna and Clara came a bit later, probably around 7AM. 

This night seemed like it would be a great one because all the bars were really lit. We did vodka shots before going out at like 11PM and the night was going alright. We went to the square of bars and danced like usual, but we also went to a supermarket and bought a Greek liqourice vodka type of thing which i got really drunk from. Anna, clara and caro ended up having to bring me home to sleep and help me puke because i got too shitfaced. It was a greattt night. 

This was the night we met Mikey Mike and [why cant you be more like your sister Madison] Todd. They bought beers for us at Aiola and then bought a can of Coke, a beer and a bottle of whisky which we all shared. This night was quite strange. Caro had a bit too much to drink and got a lil drunk. A lot happened including Clara having a mental breakdown and us having to leave Mike and Todd because we had to bring drunken Caro home. We all sort of got into a fight because we wanted different things (to go dancing or to go home), but it ended with us all going home around 2:30 and sitting up all night talking about our issues. We probably went to bed at like 6AM. 

Parikia shopping + Mikey Mike & Tadd

(Greek) family beach day + last night out in Naoussa

When they got back we chilled at the rooftop a bit and they got ready. Around 11PM we went out for dinner at a restaurant near the shore. We were done at like 12:30AM and went to hit the clubs once again.

August 18th Fri;

This day I was feeling not too good (honestly I was just super tired) so I decided to stay at home while the others took a daytrip to a beach. I spent my day doing my makeup and getting the strongest nicotine high ever on our lil rooftop. Per had given them all a ride with a rented Vespa, but it broke down, so they had to walk for 1 hour to get home.
