Ios
... Our hostel was one of my favourite things in Ios because it was owned by a guy named Francesco and he is very tuned in on what people are looking for. Beautiful private 3 bed room with a view of the horizon. Bar downstairs with free welcome shots each night. And of course a pool area to sunbath.

We took heaps of photos and then braved the 500+ steps down to the port. It was actually hard work going down as the steps were wide and covered in donkey poo so very slippery! As descended we passed several groups of people coming back up on donkeys that they had hired at the bottom – it was then ...
High Seas - Ios & Santorini
... He and Giannis handled the sea with no problems. Those two must just be a couple of sea dogs.
Ω Be prepared – Dramamine tablets, Dramamine patches, and seasickness wrist bands - focus your eyes on the horizon.
