It’s been 8 months since I’ve returned from a trip to the birthplace of democracy and I’m still dreaming about it. Greece is such a monument when it comes to the history of the world as we know it and visiting Athens and Mykonos proved that its also one of the most beautiful. I scrolled pass the pics in my camera roll and I wanted to share them along with some brief stories, tips and recos!
First stop in Athens was the Acropolis! - an ancient Greek monumental compound. Situated on a mountaintop, the historic buildings boast probably the most expansive views I’ve ever seen. Please wear your walking shoes.
Parthenon
If you’re visiting the Parthenon or anything at the Acropolis, I recommend wearing walking shoes! And lotion! hehe :)
Girl Dinner in Athens before our trip to the Acropolis. The Greeks eat ALOTTT of meat -sausage, pork, beef. Cheeses too! I was scared ngl.
My friend wanted a Harajuku night to celebrate her birthday and we all dressed up! It was so fun and cute. It was giving cheetah girls takes Greece!

Girls trips get a bad wrap but I personally love them :) On this day we roamed the city center in Mykonos buying any and everything

The house we stayed in was drop dead gorgeous and the view from the backyard was to die! Spent a lot of time out here :)
Greece has Atlanta beat when it comes to the hookah. You could order it to yoiur table at literally any restaurant.
MY friend hired a chef for her birthday brunch. After we ate, we drank. As you can see, perhaps a little too much
The happiest girl!
We made it out one night in Mykonos. It was fun and carefree and lit. You couldn’t tell me I wasn’t in a movie.
