  • In this video I leave the Greek island of Kythnos on a ferry headed for another Greek island, stopping at five islands along the way (we also stopped at Paros, but I didn't film there).

    How can you be disappointed about the Artemis? It's one of the most loved ferries in the Cyclades by experienced island hoppers. Btw, much bigger ferries are too big for some of the ports/islands where the Artemis goes. Adjusting your dates to the ferry timetables would have enabled you to go from Kythnos to Folegandros in 6 hours instead of 11. To do so you should have taken the Dionisios Solomos again.

    Hey Gabriel, this ferry ride is so lovely, Reminds me of my life in Greece when travel was done by boats. Today's ferries are fast and modern. If you travel during day time a cabin is not the best way to enjoy the blue Agean sea and the sea breeze. Have a great time in Folegandros and I am looking forward to the exploration of the island.

    15:36 OMG since you travel in Greece I got totally addicted to classical Greek Salads (Horiatiki) my fridge is stuffed with feta, bell peppers, tomatoes, cucumber, onions, olives and vinaigrette sauce. Love it! Apparently the Greek serve the salad with the feta as one big slab on top, slathered with olive oil and oregano, but I like to crumble the feta cheese into chunks, that's also easier for eating it. Cheers!

    • @GabrielTravelerVideos
      @GabrielTravelerVideos  ปีที่แล้ว +8

      It varies, sometimes it's crumbled or in large chunks, but usually it's one big slab. The feta and olives are basically what lures me into the Greek salads, otherwise I never eat salads. But I have one almost every day in Greece.

    • @PaulaBean
      @PaulaBean ปีที่แล้ว +2

      @@GabrielTravelerVideos If you ask me, a healthy choice! Because it also contains veggies like tomatoes, bellpeppers and cucumber. All good sources of fibers and Vitamin C. The olives and feta cheese bring a nice umami salty flavour to the salad. It's really a great combination.

    While of course a very nice trip, it is a shame how barren most of these islands are. This is absolutely not how it always used to be. Of course deforestation has been going on for a very long time. Like the Canary Islands, the ecosystems are so fragile that once the trees are gone they do not simply grow back. Over there they are replanting loads of new trees to help the ecosystem restore itself over time.

    • @jimjim8645
      @jimjim8645 ปีที่แล้ว

      Only the Cyclades group of islands are dry and barren (and not all of them, Naxos and Paros heave enough greenery). The rest of the Greek islands and of course the Greek mainland is surprisingly green...
