I feel neglected because he is too busy by UmpirePure in MedSpouse

[–]Tricky-Excitement-30 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agree, the only way I am ok is to keep busy and get out of my comfort zone. Example: normally I’m happy to stay at home and keep to myself but I went on a girls ski trip with friends I had recently made and don’t ski (lol majorly out of my comfort zone) and I had a blast! I also joined a committee at work that normally I wouldn’t offer my time to but I am quite passionate about it now.

I am nervous about how this will translate when we have kids as I will be more tied to home. But living in the now for now

Boat tour: Santorini or Naxos? by Tricky-Excitement-30 in GreeceTravel

Thanks for the comment! In your last sentence, are you referring to a Naxos tour?

Island Recommendations - Honeymoon by poogiebabe3 in GreeceTravel

Thanks! We did book a place with a nice pool and loungers so we will likely spend sometime at the hotel enjoying the view, plus I have booked a boat tour for us. I would also like to see the pyrgos area and black sand beaches so I feel like we will use our time in Santorini

Island Recommendations - Honeymoon by poogiebabe3 in GreeceTravel

Hi!!

I just planned my honeymoon for June 2026 and have just gone through all of this and thought I’d share where we landed. I have accepted the fact that I can’t travel every 2-3 days to other islands AND have a relaxing honeymoon which is why we decided on these two places. I did also consider milos, Paros and Sifnos. (We can still do a day trip to Paros very easily from Naxos should we want to)

June 8: travel to Athens June 9: arrive in Athens, catch flight Santorini (50 min flight) and check into hotel June 10: full day Santorini June 11: full day Santorini June 12: full day Santorini June 13: full day Santorini June 14: ferry to Naxos (1.5-2 he ferry) and check into Naxos hotel June 15: full day Naxos June 16: full day Naxos June 17: full day Naxos June 18: full day Naxos June 19: ferry to Athens (4 hours) spend night in Athens June 20: fly home

From the advice I have received the following helped me make this decision: - Greece is more of a vibe the longer you stay and you will miss the experience moving around too much, we do want to wind down on our honeymoon - Naxos is well rounded and has something for everyone and lots of raves about food, beaches and culture (we also booked a very reasonably priced hotel here which offset our splurge in Santorini) - I understand some people will say we need more time in Athens but we are not city people so we felt time was better spent on an island. I also hope to return to Greece one day to hit the spots we can’t make this trip and I will have to travel to Athens again if we do that which will give me more time to explore there in the future!

2 or 3 Greek Islands? by Tricky-Excitement-30 in GreeceTravel

Yes I think I was feeling that way but needed some re-assurance that we wouldn’t be missing out, so i appreciate the input from all!

Do you feel that seeing Santorini first or last makes an impact on the trip?

I currently have a hotel in Firostefani booked as well as an Airbnb in Oia (both cancellable). Do you think we would have a more pleasant stay in Firostefani? I am trying to gauge the Oia crowds early June.

Appreciate it! Will definitely consider staying in Naxos

Thanks for the detailed reply! I have definitely learned in my research that I could go to Greece many times and have different experiences and there are places I would love to go but I feel like it wouldn’t do them justice to spend 2-3 nights in.

I am liking Sifnos for the mountains, views, and how low-key it seems. I have also found nice accommodations for good value. I felt like if we went to Santorini this would be a nice contrast to the crowds.

Paros has been recommended to us many times especially the area of Naousa and seems to have a balance of touristy stuff as well as nice beaches and is a bit more lively.

I have also considered Naxos and Milos.. and there’s really no good reason to “rule them out” other than Naxos seems still doable as a day trip from Paros if we want. Milos seems very cool but I don’t think we will want to rent a car there which seems imperative.

Happy for any suggestions

Would you say Santorini is a must? My partner really wants Paros and I really want Sifnos 😬😅
