“Perfect for two.” Those words sum up my summer on the island. Astypalaia has the beauty of a mixed heritage—it’s a Cycladic soul in the Dodecanese. In its old neighborhoods, whitewashed houses stand proudly next to ochre-colored mansions with ornate cornices. It has rugged landscapes, kilometers of dirt roads, and plenty of deserted scenery. Here, you feel miles away from the world—just you and your other half.” (from the Kathimerini article)
