Sunsets, parties and the blue domes. Mykonos is a dreamy island. From daytime beach parties to evening breezes, there is something for all ages and interests. The cobble stone streets and white buildings add a beautiful touch to the nature of Mykonos and makes everything seem brighter!
I was there with family which was unfortunate as there were many youngsters and party opportunities which I had to miss due to obvious reasons!
Seafood, which isn't one of my most favourable dishes was incredibly popular and despite the fact that it is a touristic hotspot, prices were not too extremely high. I stuck to eating risotto one night, lasagne the other and completed my week with five other Italian favourites - in Greece. Nice.
My favourite time of day in Mykonos was the nighttime. It felt as though this pretty little island came alive at night and everything looked extra special from sunset onwards. It was almost the only thing I looked forward to after waking up and going to the beach to spend my whole day soaking up the rays. Bliss.
It was easy identifying certain boutiques and stalls, nonetheless, getting to them was a big problem as we could never find our way out of the maze - like streets, which all happen to look the same. The warm hearted and friendly locals of Mykonos never held back in telling me how inappropriate my platform wedges were for the cobble stone streets which I felt was incredibly sweet and purely out of spite.
There were various white and red buildings which had the door wide open and looked like a place of prayer. After researching this, we found out that certain families in Mykonos have their own Church which they are responsible for all things in from maintenance to simply being a touristic attraction.
My selfie stick came in extremely handy on this trip, as it does on every trip, and I highly recommend it to those who are still, to this day being influenced by judgmental, ignorant and boring people who cannot understand them. If it was not for my selfie stick, this photo would not have been so detailed and included everything I wanted it to.
The Italian Gelato (ice cream) cafe's were another fantastic factor of popularity for Mykonos as it gave that summer in the mediterranean feel with a hint of Italy and the traditional Greek coffee; which is a lot more bitter and ground compared to other coffee.
