We ended our trip by taking a ferry ("The Flying Dolphin", to be exact) from the
bizarre-ness of Albania to the island of Corfu, Greece. I had previously been to Athens when I studied abroad in 2008, and was excited to see the islands I had heard so much about.
I cannot think of a more perfect ending to our trip. We stayed in Perama, a sleepy town not far from Corfu City. Our hotel was amazing, overlooking the Mediterranean, with crystal-clear water that we snorkeled in every day. I'm not going to lie, we didn't do much. We ate, drank, and lounged on the beach. We narrowly avoided starting World War III with our Russian neighbors, who didn't take too kindly to us hanging out on our balcony after dark, but aside from that, it was relaxing and a great way to finish up our trip and our years in Europe.

| I think I read at least 3 books whilst in Greece-gotta love having a Kindle. |
