Greece. Best vacation evah!

Last summer me and 3 friends of mine went to Greece for 2 weeks. Since we were all adventerous girls, we decided to go "Island jumping". Our first visit was Santorini, since that's where our plane landed. We stayed there for a day, then went on to bigger and better places. Santorini is more for those who prefer a quiet and peaceful vacation, and we were looking for a little more fun place to be at.

Our next stop was Ios; the infamous party Island. If I'm ever going to recommend you to go somewhere, this would be it! The whole Island is made for party loving tourists; with bars at every corner, nice places to go shopping for clothes and other stuff to remember the trip, and an awesome beach with everything you could ever want. We met some other Norwegians there; some guys from Bergen. We went out with them and had a foreparty at a bar called "Sunrise" before hitting the town. We split up with the guys and went to a place called "Rehab" where they were having a Ladies Night; with male strippers and everything. One of the bartenders actually wore the "Borat swimsuit". We laughed, we drank and we had a lot of fun.

Next we went on to Naxos. It was a little quieter, which was a good thing, we needed that after those 3 days on Ios. And after that we went to Paros, where we went out on the town in Parikia (I think it's called). There we met some Irish people and such and had a great time with them. Actually, we flashed ourselves to get a drink at one bar. It was free drinks if we flashed the bartenders. We were drunk and didn't care much, so we did it.

After 3 days on Naxos and 3 on Paros we went back to Ios. The Norwegian guys were still there, so we joined them out on the town again. This time one of my friends drank too much and we ended up having to take her to the hospital, she had alcohol poisoning. She was okay after a night at the hospital though. The same night I hurt my thumbs, they were swollen and I couldn't move them for a month after.

All in all, it was an amazing trip and we're repeating it this summer! (minus the hospital visit we hope). I would recommend anyone that is young and want a great party vacation to go to Ios, Greece. It's worth the trip <33
