Wow such a good night sleep, we really needed that! After having breakfast, we decided to do the famous hike to Fira (the biggest village in Santorini). Did you know there are no street names in Santorini? There was indeed one path leading to Fira from the place we stayed. And when you ask for example where you can find the nearest busstop, the locals just give directions without mentioning any street names (‘go left there’…’and when you’re on the main street, take…
Today, 5 september, was the day we had been waiting for more than 2 years of preparations. Our dream was about to come true: we would leave our comfortable homes to discover the big unknown world. Our flight would departure from Bruxelles (Belgium) and Farhang’s dad would drop us off.

Since we don’t know how long our journey will take or whether we will find a job in Asia or Australia after those 8 months or there could be some other reasons why we would have to come back sooner to the Netherlands, we will not deregister for now. Once things are…
At first I had loads of things thrown on my bed I wanted to take with me. But when I started test-packing my backpack I realised I was living a dream 😀 Only a small part of it could fit in my backpack so it is going to be a challenge to pack as least as possible (especially for women).
