Hey hey hey all my international mates ( all 4 of you haha ). So seeing as though I didnt get to finish my post about Greece last week I will finish it now yo ;) . There was just waaaaay to much cool shit to fit into one post !
So after we left the island of Santorini we got a ferry to another of the Cyclades islands called Naxos , where we stayed for 8 nights and fuck me it was freaken awesome ! So good to actually have so long in one place , and because the island is quite big with a shitload of small towns and beaches we never got bored ! I mean how can u ever get bored of the best food in the world which is also damn cheap and so are the beers and everyday there is sun ... you can NEVER get sick of that hey ! ;)
I suppose I will start by telling you about our quadbike adventure ... holy fucking poobum it was one of the best things I have ever done !! These first couple of pics are of our day on the quad bike . We ended up going on this dirt track road right along the edge of the sea (bloody steep in some Places!!) and finding all these secluded and bloody beautiful beaches ... like fuck off awesome beaches ... so awesome I proposed to Sara at one of them ;) The last photo is of the beach where I proposed to Sara ... even got down on my bad knee and all hahaha :P See how freaken epdawg the quad bike looks !!! It was a bloody weapon! I managed to get it up for 96 Klm/h on the highway at one stage ... much to Saras screaming dislike haha :P But some of the hills we had to get up I was even shitting myself a bit. So bloody cool !
Next couple of photos is of us having lunch on Plakka beach ... man its nice .... but you know what shits me is the fact that in all the places they have sunbeds they ALL have wifi , so this means that many people just sit at these beautiful beaches looking at their fucking stupid ass phones !!! Not everyone though there were still a lot of people reading books like Sara and I. Of course I have to show another photo of the food we ate ! This photo of our lunch is tzatziki , saganaki cheese and the obligatory Greek salad ;) Tastes as good as it looks , and the backdrop aint half bad either ;) Fucken OATH ! Get it up ya !
Next up I will just show you a lot of random cool pictures of buildings / Churches etc we came across . The arcitecture is nothing like I have seen before (nearly no straight lines and so much curves) and its so freaken awesome , all the white and blue go so good with the landscape and the feel of the country ! Loving it !
Last of all is just some beautiful beaches we went to when we went on a boat tour to the small islands of Koufonisi and some other one I cant remember now haha :P Fucken looks like paradise because it is yo !
So all in all Greece is definitely one of the best places I have ever been and cant recommend it more highly ! The people are all super friendly and welcoming and also speak pretty good English which is a great bonus , but for me it was the food haha , sounds boring I know but man ... its just so freaken good ... of course the beaches and all that are also so very nice ...and this is only 4 islands of Greece!!! Definitely recommend Greece to anyone and everyone ! Also its VERY children friendly so if you are a family I would recommen to head to Naxos island and stay away from Ios and Santorini , Naxos is almost made for a perfect family vacation ! ;) Or even a wedding proposal as it was in our case haha . Naxos will always carry a special part in mine and Saras hearts and im sure we will return many times , hopefully in not to long we can go as a family with kids ! ;)
That is all , Peace out , Catch ;)

HOLY SHITBALLS BATMAN! - HE`S BLOGGING AGAIN !
Hey hey hey all my peeps , my internet gansters, how the fuck are ya ? So yeah havent blogged in bloody ages ay ;) Been a bit lazy to be honest and im sorry about that , when your a moderately lazy person its easy to get into a cycle of lazyness , but in being only moderately lazy this means im BACK ! Hope you guys have all had a good summer ( for those of you in Europe that is ) For those of you back home in Australia I hope you had a good winter ( otherwise known as the time its gets so Cold you MAY have to put some jeans on to go with your singlet haha ).
So Sara and I went to Greece recently for 2 weeks and thats the most interesting thing I can think of to talk about that has happened in recent history so I figured I will start there. We flew by aeromobile (otherwise known as an airplane) to an island called Santorini which is a part of the Cyclades island chain in the sea south of mainland Greece and fuck me it didnt dissapoint!! . Take a look at this picture of some olives and a Greek beer I was gorging on our balcony , this was literally my diet for the first 3 days , beer , olives and bread , I even discovered if you get really really really good and fresh olives to go with some super fresh and tasy bread then you can just make olive sandwiches and survive on them , so fucking good !
On the first day I also managed to finally go parasailing after missing out many times before , it was ok , but kinda shit to be honest haha , after having done skydiving, shark diving , bungee jumping and cliff jumping this seemed kinda tame haha . You go pretty high in the air , they dunk you in the water , your balls get squashed up into your insides and the guys who we were doing it was about as enthused as I was. But still bloody glad a did it just to say that i did :) Here is a picture of me enjoying the thrill ride :P
This island called Santorini is basially only a thousand years old or something like that and its just a huge ass volcano and its really magnificant and picturesque and all that crap so we hired a quad bike and rode around the island to check it out . We came across a really weird beach where it seriousy looked like you were on Mars , it felt like you were on Mars to as it was about 40 degrees and there was no wind , Sara and I walked down to the water and swam for like 5 minutes and then got out and promptly left to get ourselves an ice cream to cool off , wow that sounds like something an old person would tell other people , we went to get an ice cream to cool off , well im leaving it like that anyways and hey fuck you it was hot and that ice cream was fuckin epically awesome ! ;) Here is a picture of the Mars Beach !
Ok next I will talk about the food , HOLY FUCKING JESUS THE FOOD ! It was probly my favorite thing about Greece , and whilst that may sound kinda boring it really is not because Greek food is easily my favorite type of food and I ate shitloads of it growing up in West End in Brisbane because there is a huge Greek community in West End . Have you ever heard of a cheese called Saganaki cheese ? Neither had I until I discovered my second true love ( Sara of course being the first... Hey I gotta say that shit cause she reads this haha) Saganaki cheese is a fried cheese which is a mixture between haloumi and feta cheese and fuck me its DAS BOMB! Its almost fully responsible for me putting on the 5 kgs I put on while we were away , one day I managed to eat it 3 times ! It is THAT good ! This is a pic of some saganaki cheese, some nice fresh bread , some tzatsiki of course and some olive paste , it was bloody delicious ! The saganaki is the plate with the tomatoes on it ;)
So one of the last Things Sara and I did on Santorini was head to a small town called Oia and have a really nice ( and apparently really romantic ) Dinner on a rooftop restuarant whilst watching one of the best sunsets I have ever seen , I took a really cool picture of a helicopter flying over the sunset which I think is pretty damn cool , if you look closely you can make out a small island in the background also , I reckon I should ring up national geographic and ask them if they want to use my picture haha :P
This last Picture is just of the typical Greek houses/churches and buildings you find all over Greece but they look even more spectacular when they are all so close together built on the side of a massive volcano!.
Ok seeing as though writing this blog has taken me and hour now I have decided to tell you about the rest of our Greece trip in my next blog post , which hopefully will be tomorrow and not a few months like this blog was in the making haha . Cheers cunts !
