After a 7hr bus ride and 2hr ferry I have arrived in Corfu, Greece’s most beautiful island!

The island is a lot bigger then I expected the taxi took 30mins and €30 to get to the hotel, but it was on the top of a hill on a beautiful white pebble beach with clear water in the foreground and mountains in the back….very picturesque. The hotel has breakfast and dinner included and was only €20 per night

I hired a car on the second day so I could get around a bit, the hotel is nice but because it’s off season it’s really dead and the pool bar kinda sucks.
Tiny, windy mountain roads, crazy Greek drivers and right hand side driving rules…it felt like the first time I ever got behind the wheel. I only drove a little but boy I was petrified. The next day I didn’t drive and sat by the pool as I was still kinda nervous about driving so I just had some cocktails and a swim

On the following day it was overcast so I went for a drive again, this time around the island. It was pretty bad but I calmed down and it all started to come back, by the end of the day I was sticking it into the corners and passing the slow tourists on the bends like a local.
The next 2 days it was pretty shite weather and rained most the time so I watched DVD’s and staying in a bit.

I finished the trip with a few good days of sun so i managed to getr some beach time in, however people beaches kinda suck compared to sandy ones but it was still really nice. The water on the other hand is beyond freezing, I doubt anyone could stay in it longer then 10mins or so.

Back to London tonight, I got a cheap flight with EasyJet so it will only take a few hours. As most of you that I have emailed or chatted to know…I am now broke as, so I am going to be working pretty hardcore once I get to London. I plan to get a laptop so I can keep up to date and do some web work from home and finally get my photos online.

I hope everyone has enjoyed the first leg of my World Tour (as if anyone really reads this crap anyhow) and I will hopefully speak/chat to you all personally soon.

Cheers
