While planning the trip I had to chose where to go, where to stay, how long to stay, and how to get there so after much research and asking my good friends for advise I decided to go to Naxos, the biggest island of the Cyclades, and then to Santorini. We stayed 3 nights in each island which was just perfect.

I made it to Athens and met with my mom!!! 

She flew all the way from El Salvador and had quite the connections (El Salvador- Honduras- Miami- Zurich- Athens!)  and 30+ hours travel journey door to door. 

I arrived a day earlier than her just to make sure I would be in Athens before she did and I could pick her up from the airport.

I arrived at the bus station in Selcuk when it was already dark out and while I was looking at my phone to see which way to go, a man came to me and asked me where I was staying, took my bag and walked me to my hostel.

To my surprise I was THE ONLY guest in the whole place and had a 12 mixed dorm all to myself! So nice!

I wasn’t really sure about wether or not to go to Pamukkale since I googled it and it just looked like some thermal pools and I’m not a fan of swimming in other people’s germs. My friend Simone had highly recommended them and when I talked to my friend Leslie she said “Pamukkale is something I would go back to Turkey for” so… I booked an early bus ride to Pamukkale on my way to Selcuk.

Made it to Fetiyeh really early in the morning and checked into one of the nicest hostel I’ve ever stayed in. The dorm had 6 beds and each pod had a curtain and a flat screen tv on it. I rested for a little bit and then went to the bathroom and the charm of the hostel went out the window! The bathroom was so small one could barely fit. When I sat on the toilet I could barely close the door because my knees touched the door. The funniest thing happened the next morning when I went in to brush my teeth and a guy was taking a shower; he looked up from the shower and we could see each other, he even asked me if I could hold his wrist band and put it somewhere, I didn’t even have to fully extend my arm to grab it from him! We both started laughing at the awkwardness of the bathroom and started a conversation… while he showered!!! So many points  deducted for the bad bathroom!
