29 Euros holidays in Athens
So when I was in Athens I went to the Acropolis, and some other ancient sites. I think I mentioned it before but Athens is a beautiful city, and its relatively cheap for Europe (if you dont go out drinking). Another thing that I did in Greece which was cool was go to the governmental palace. There you can watch the changing of the guard. The soldiers wear a very traditional uniform, and have a very ornamental ceremony that shouldn’t be missed (plus its right next to Syntagma Square and the Plaka).
I will give you an example of daily expenses:
- Hostel 18 Euro
- Stolen bread for breakfast from hostel FREE
- Acropolis and ancient sites ticket 6 Euro with student card (Im obvioiusly not a student, but had the dude make me one)
- Peaches, bannanas and nectarines for lunch 1.5 Euro
- Water .5 Euro if you buy a big bottle and refill in restaurant bathrooms (all water in Athens is drinkable)
- Two gyros to go for dinner (takeaway is cheaper) 3.6 Euro
Total: 29 Euro or $45 a day
After I went to the acropolis and around Athens the next day I went to Sounio, which is about a 70km drive east. Sounio is the southernmost point of continental Europe,replica handbags, and is where the Greeks built the Temple of Poseidon overlooking the sea. After visiting this, you can go down to this hotel and swim at their beach for free. The beach is really beautiful.
