POV: you’ve accidentally stumbled into the cutest POV: you’ve accidentally stumbled into the cutest island in Greece 🇬🇷

Tiny colourful houses stacked up the hillside, crystal-clear water, bougainvillea around every corner and cats acting like they own the place. Which, to be fair, they probably do.

One minute you’re wandering through postcard-perfect streets, the next you’re swimming in water so clear it looks Photoshopped.

Honestly… how is this a real place? 😍

Found a window to paradise 💙 and possibly the best Found a window to paradise 💙 and possibly the best restaurant view I’ve ever seen 😍

Coffee, a good book and every shade of blue stretching out across the Ionian Sea. The kind of place you come for a quick stop and end up staying far longer than planned. 🩵

Folegandros in every shade of blue 💙🩵 This island Folegandros in every shade of blue 💙🩵

This island is small, wild and wonderfully laid-back. There are no big resorts or endless lists of attractions here, which is exactly the point. Rent a car, beach hop, wander around Chora with absolutely no plan and spend far too long over dinner in one of its little squares.

A few things not to miss:

⛪️ Walk the zigzag path up to the Church of Panagia for one of the best views on the island
💦 Swim in the ridiculously clear water at Agios Nikolaos, Agali & Katergo
🥾 Take the coastal path from Agali to Agios Nikolaos… or do what we did and get the five-minute boat 🙃
🤍 Get lost in Chora’s whitewashed lanes, colourful doors and bougainvillea-filled courtyards
🏰 Wander through the Kastro, the oldest part of Chora, where houses were built into the old fortress walls
🚙 Rent a car and go hunting for tiny coves, viewpoints and corners of the island you’d otherwise never see
🍽️ Claim a table in one of Chora’s little squares and let dinner turn into drinks turn into “how is it midnight already?”
🌅 Head up high for sunset because Folegandros really knows how to show off when the sun goes down

Athens is a bit like Marmite. People seem to eithe Athens is a bit like Marmite. People seem to either absolutely love it or really, really don’t… and I am firmly in the love camp. 🇬🇷

Yes, it’s chaotic, a little rough around the edges and definitely not the prettiest European city at first glance, but that’s kind of what I love about it. Ancient ruins casually sitting between busy streets, little neighbourhood tavernas, rooftop bars overlooking the Acropolis, incredible food, late nights and that unmistakable Athens energy.
Every time I come back, I like it even more.

A few postcards from one of my favourite city breaks in-between ferry hopping to islands. 💙

🏛️ Visit the Acropolis & Parthenon
🌿 Wander through Plaka & Anafiotika
🍽️ Eat your way around the city at local tavernas
🌅 Watch sunset from Lycabettus Hill
🍸 Have drinks at a rooftop bar overlooking the Acropolis
