Very soon there will be only turists living there and the prices will go up just for very few like Mykonos which used to be a poor island. There wont be Greek people to create a relaxed atmosphere but northern Europeans and Americans ....you can imagine ..loud and show off demonstrating their riches.
So beautiful Greece😍😍 Watching this I feel go on a vacation! I want to go to Greece someday❤🧡 Thank you for sharing this my new friend!! Greeting from Korea!👍👍
Hey Guys! I just love Naxos. I went there when I was 18 and have been a regular ever since. That's nearly 40 years! Agia Anna is where we normally stay but have also stayed on the other side of the Island at Apollon. I love Tinos Island and of course Paros but Naxos is a favourite. You made me laugh regarding the Naxos potatoes and cheese. Great food with a bottle of Mythos! It will be interesting if you continue to stay into November especially with the cooler weather. Take care.
Hi .. We met on Bonita in Las Terranas.. Glad you are on Naxos, we were there 3 years ago . Wish we talked about it then . Don't rent a quad for seeing the rest of the island . It is too mountainous and big for it .A side by side or small car is best..also the town in the middle of the island that has the Kitron museum distillery is a wonderful old Greek village and has a historic church a short hike away. It's a real highlight as to what is away from what most tourists see. You will really love that excursion....
Hey Christian... we didn't know we were going to Naxos then of course. We'll take your advice on the mountains / quads. We'll save those for town / plaka adventures 😀 - Trevor
Writing from Sicily here, and I have to say, at this time of the year I honestly always look for some kind of "New England fall vibes", but you guys really make me appreciate the beauty of living in the Mediterranean, especially in periods like this: if i want to get a taste of fall I can easily get to a forest in Mt Etna, if I want to go to the beach I still can, and with all the tourists gone, everything does have a dramatically different taste. Thanks for the video, these Greek islands do remind me of the Aeolian and Aegadian Islands here in Sicily...everything feels so laid-back and, at the same time, steeped in history. Keep discovering, keep it amazing! Hugs from Sicily
So appreciate that.. such a nice comment 🤗 We miss Sicily a lot and will definitely go back there at some point. Now that you said 'Fall Vibes' you have us missing it as well hehe - Anna
Do you know if those Aeolian & Aegadian islands have a Hellenic 🇬🇷 etymology? Im really curious, I know the Greeks have been there since Antiquity & during the Medieval Years. 👍
It's wonderful to see your Greece videos, especially since Greece is my favorite country in the world (have travelled to over 40 countries). I loved Naxos and there is a lot to explore but I would suggest a car to do that.. it's safe and will keep you warm as some destinations can be far away.. after all it's November
Congratulations on the move and loved all your videos, especially from Greece in past years 👏🇬🇷 I've been to 16 islands myself and counting! Yasas from Australia 🇦🇺
@@DelightfulTravellers Ooh I gotta say Lefkada and Kefalonia out west in the Ionian sea. The color of the water there defies belief. Check them out next time!
Always look forward to your new adventures! Just adds more inspiration for my future travel plan! Thank you for amazing content and real advice on what is like in each town you visit!!
You guys are truly delightful! I’ve never been more excited to be called down to watch your latest episode of 5 hours ago (Nov.6) on TH-cam! Can’t get enough!! Good choice on Naxos-never been there-but what great weather for November/watching you from Calgary, Alberta! ❤️🤗❤️
i love Naxos ,working in mykonos for the past 6 years ,but keep coming here(naxos) every october.i like your video! P.S. : best coffee in town is The Rebel Project.thank me later.
Can relate. Florida boy and US Navy Retired Master Chief.....transplanted to Crete, Greece 18 years ago. Longest Ive ever lived in a place in my entire life. Love Greece, Naxos rocks too as does many Greek islands.
I was hoping you were going to Naxos, I just love it there and can certainly imagine an extended stay there. I was supposed to go back in July 2020, but of course, Covid... Enjoy your time, I look forward to all your videos to help me dream about my return.
Anna said the magic words when it comes to me deciding to live somewhere for an extended period of time - variety of food options. As a sushi lover, I particularly need a way to get raw fish somehow. Looks like that won't be a problem on Naxos. 😎🍣
I'm currently on a trip through the US and Mexico. Finally neither of us are in Canada and we are out having fun! We explored Cape Breton this summer (before we ran from the hurricane) and watching you guys is a comforting taste of home as well as a visual treat of your current "home" 💕
great video! wanna visit greece now! If you have bad wifi, you can always try to connect with an ethernet cable if you can get close enough to the router and the owner lets you, heheh.
I absolutely love your videos. I started watching while you were in Italy, as that's my next destination, however you are really selling me on Greece. Safe travels!!
hi there to both of you i was in naxos in june i went to my navy service back in 1987 i now live in australia im from island called leros but naxos is my favorite island but manly for the naxian people the good people i have few good frend from the time i spend in the Greek navy up in the mountains of argokili but i know is a restictried area but awesome island have fun and enjoy Naxos go visit filoti apeirantos is near the top of the mountains and dont forget to visit apolonas my only regret i never been to apolonas my next trip i will go is on the other side of naxos good luck on your travels good choice naxos ps graviera naxos and chip are the best in the world and I'm jealous of you 2 in good way sorry forgot to say galanado is about 10 minutes from hora is one shop there coffe shop small super market her name is eudokia say hello to them from foti thell them teh will know from leros the will look after you surname is grilis good people
hi guys. so love your choice of islands to chose from. was watching vids from jumping places, gave a grat overview of the island, very impressed, so yu have problems with the wind try -15 to 25 with wind chills, its been winter here for the past 2 weeks and its only fall where as the martimes so pleasant. i dont know why we are so unfortunate!! anyway always enjoy your updates. enjoy your stay🥰
We were just there for 4 days the last week of October staying at a place right on that beach. We even went swimming - the water is great...if you're Canadian.😉 We highly recommend climbing Mount Zas if you have good footwear.
Hi guys, you probably don't remember me, I commented on your videos about Halifax a year ago, I told you how i dreamed on moving to Canada someday, just to update, we've been living in New Brunswick already 5 months and this Sunday will travel to Halifax for the first time and stay a couple nights there! Love your videos, trying to stay tuned on all!
Naxos is a nice place to hang out for a while, plus you can of course also visit nearby Paros, Amorgos, etc. I personally would have chosen Crete myself for a Fall/Winter stay...simply because it is a little bit warmer, plus Chania, Rethymno and Heraklion are more open (all year round) etc...than the Cyclades will be during the off season. However, the Cyclades actually are the driest location in all of Greece during the winter months...averaging only approx 315mm of rain per year. Also, as a person who has led a plant-based (vegan) cruelty-free lifestyle for the past 50+ years...Crete has a lot more local, (traditional) cuisine that I can eat when dining out.
There may be ex pats living on the island. A casual inquiry at the local stores , or at the place that you stay, may lead to you meeting very interesting people....
Great vid! Speaking of the DR…I’m back in Las Terrenas myself. I missed the rice/beans and the coffee here so much! I’m going to have to try this Greek fredo cappuccino some day. Sounds amazing.
@@DelightfulTravellers I was in Santo Domingo for a few days to check out the Zona Colonial and then I’m in LT for about a week getting my condo up and running for rental. Then I rent a car to head to Las Galeras for a few days to see more of Samana. Trying to follow a Delightful Travellers plan this time and see the country! 😎
Glad you are having a great time. Question for you. We are heading to Las Terrenas on Wednesday November 9th. What were Mosquitoes like would I bring off? Have fun
@Diane Galley Speaking from experience visiting several cities in the country…it depends…last month visiting the northern part of the island I used a mosquito repellent purchased in the DR on some days… it worked wonderfully.
Are the Freddo Cappuccino's you have mentioned the same as the Greek frappé? A few years ago when we were in Greece, I remember that the frappé's were all the rage. Evidently, the frappé was invented through experimentation by Dimitris Vakondios, a Nescafe representative, in 1957 in Thessaloniki. An excellent drink for the summer, both cold and stimulating.
Frappe is instant coffee whipped in a mixer. The foam on top is from the coffee. Add milk as you wish. Freddo is espresso coffee whipped. In the freddo cappuccino the foam is whipped milk (of plant cream as some shops offer this alternative). Without the milk foam it is called freddo espresso.
@@DelightfulTravellers of course. My point is, it needs to be mentioned. Two travel groups I know had their travel agents do an emergency rebook because that issue was not disclosed before they arrived.
We're living here for over a month. Our 'home' is on the road 😀 We're not on vacation and the videos will likely come out over the course of a couple months as it takes a long time to edit - Trevor
I was wondering, do you get involved with the local society of the island? Are you informed about the current political crisis in Greece (like #PredatorGate or the illegal #pushbacks)? Because you only mention superficial things like food or places. For example we pay the most expensive internet in EU, the inflation is raging, fuel for cars or heating is so expensive that many people don't have a way to heat their houses during the winter. We also currently have a housing crisis and renting a decent flat is a luxury. And all that apart from the constant tension and danger of a war with Turkey and while the government is running from one scandal to the other causing so much insecurity and despair to Greeks. Living here is not an easy task and government is trying to cover their total and multiple failure with campaigns to attract "digital nomads" and tourists and "foreign money", while the working class is getting a minimum wage of 713 euros. I'm just wondering because I have friends living in Naxos and my family is living in an even smaller cycladic island and it is kind of out of touch to watch vlogs from Greece like nothing wrong is going on.
I appreciate your perspective and local knowledge; however is it reasonable or fair to expect all travel vloggers to delve into the political situations of the places they show us? I think not. There is not one country or area on this planet where people are not experiencing the situations you describe, some heartbreakingly even worse. Trevor and Anna are citizens of the world and choose to share their travels and experiences from a cultural, historic, and, perhaps, even a tourist perspective at times. If they encourage others to visit places, I would hope no other traveller would be so naïve as to not expect there is probably another, sadder, side to every destination. If travellers or tourists are interested, and they probably should be, there are many avenues available for such research. Anna and Trevor have a specific focus on their channel and I suspect philosophy of life. This is what they share on their channel. If they focus on the wonder and beauty in our world, thank goodness there is still much of that for us all. And they contribute to the local economy; there are few if any countries and business owners who don’t welcome $ from travellers. Anna and Trevor, love the work you do here on your channel and the encouragement you give to us all to travel and explore. ❤
Dont project your own opinion as fact Eirini. Greece is paradise and many Greeks know this. And the other Greeks have no idea how disrespectful they are the their own country overfilled with 1 million things to cherish
Paradise has different meaning to different people. From a (marketing) /touristic point of view Naxos definitely is not considered a paradise destination (it's still in Med) ,but it's a very decent (and affordable) place to leave (all year round).
Naxos is great indeed, but you don't want to get sick in an island and not be able to travel due to rough sea, which happens some times. But I guess everything comes with a price. I envy all you Americans who are cruising in the islands, while in the same time the majority of the Greeks cannot afford to spend not even 3 days over there

There wont be Greek people to create a relaxed atmosphere but northern Europeans and Americans ....you can imagine ..loud and show off demonstrating their riches.
