Karpathos island
“If the first day of June already finds me on a Greek island, this is a sign that this summer is going to be great”. This was one of the thoughts that crossed my mind upon arrival at the airport of Karpathos island.
Even though I grew up in Greece, I never had the chance to visit Karpathos. With my family and friends, we used to always spend summers in Samos, where my mom has a family house there.
I can’t tell you enough how happy I was, when the official Greek Tourism board invited me to join a group of journalists and gave me this chance to finally visit Karpathos island, take some photos and publish them on The Viennese Girl blog.

Things that I truly loved in Karpathos island during my stay
- everything about the traditional village Olympos.
- the restaurant Under the tree in Finiki. The owner cooked for us something I will never ever forget in my life. It was one of the best dishes I have ever eaten: Crab Salad!!! To die for!
- waking up to the seaview from my hotel room every morning.
- a little bit of “me time” on the last day and discover the island on my own. I looked for green soaps made of olive oil to buy, treated myself twice with iced coffee latte in a cafe called Anoi all day bar in Pigadia (the town of the island) and ate lots of Yogeat Frozen Yogurt.

August 11, 2017 at 3:27 pm (8 years ago)Ciao Alessandra. There is no need to say sorry! I am here to answer your questions : ) If you mean the mill house, you will find it in the village Olympos. And regarding the photo number 4, if you mean the wooden chairs, this is a open bar with a swimming pool next to the hotel Alimounda mare. Hope I helped!

August 11, 2017 at 5:51 pm (8 years ago)No, I don’t …but it’s very easy to find because it’s next to Alimounda Hotel…go to Alimounda Hotel and next to the hotel you will find the bar. There are not many bars there anyway…
