The Plan
Two islands, one very good Friday.
Santorini first while you’re fresh. Crete second, to slow it down and keep the second half kind to the budget.

Four nights on the rim. One big thing a day.
The Birthday
FRIDAY 18 JUNE 2027
Check out of Firostefani, check into the cave suite in Imerovigli, and let the day be slow until the light turns.
