Time for a trip!

Lately I've been feeling like I'm doing the same old things day after day. I know it sounds strange, being that I live in another country but I've become quite used to the way of life here. We go for coffee, watch a movie, walk along the sea, go to Gazi (an area with many bars and clubs), visit the marina, etc. Not that I don't love all of these things but I feel its time for another adventure! Since the aupair salary isn't the highest and I'm trying to save some for my trip back to the states this summer Jess and I have decided to look into taking a trip to one of the islands near by. There are many ferries that go every day and they aren't too expensive (30-50 euros). We have thought about going for just a day trip but both of us feel the need to get out of the city for awhile so we're now we've decided to spend the whole weekend instead. After spending some time researching which place to go we've chosen Paros! It is south of the mainland and about a 4 hour ferry ride. Since it is the off season we found a really cute and nice hotel for only 70 euros for 2 nights! We were going to go the second weekend in March but we decided we couldn't wait that long so we're going to go the first weekend instead :) Not sure exactly what we'll do there but it is supposed to be a nice area to walk around and possibly take a horse riding trip! Can't wait!!!!!
