Question: Have you ever had wanderlust so crippling that you superimpose yourself on vacation-type visuals?
In light of recent events, Santorini was put in the spotlight under unfair circumstances. Also known as the supermodel of the Greek islands, the idyllic destination was but a tool for someone else's Instagram fame, where its beauty exploited to serve as a likes-generating backdrop.
Dazzling paranomas, sprawling vineyards, historical sites, a sleeping volcano, and guaranteed sunsets every day, Santorini is truly a place brimming with all sorts of activities and sights that you have to visit, in the flesh. And if you score a brilliant photo during your vacation, it definitely deserves bragging rights on Instagram. At least you aren't duping anyone!
5. Sunset viewing
While a cliche vacation activity, sunset-viewing is rampant in Santorini. Head up to Oia, a place prime for sunset-viewing, where you’ll easily catch the fiery ball of butter sinking into the cooling waters of the Aegean sea. The building landscape of Santorini is also another sight to behold, with its buildings and their gleaming white outfits drenched in delicious hues of embers as the sun makes way for night. While we’re sure one can easily photoshop themselves into this stock image, they can never cherish this glorious scene most visitors would have emblazon across their minds and in their hearts.
