Good solo pacing overall between ancient sites and island vibes, though I wish there'd been a bit more free time built into the Athens days.
The Acropolis Museum alone justified the Athens leg for me, spent nearly three hours going through it without anyone rushing me along.
Went to Greece solo not knowing what to expect and the Acropolis at golden hour completely floored me, one of those moments you just stand still for.
Mykonos gave me the island reset I needed after a heavy few months, and Athens gave me the history fix I didn't know I wanted.
Enjoyed the destinations themselves but the transfer between the Athens hotel and the port for the Mykonos ferry was disorganised, ended up waiting around with my bags for far too long.
Never once felt awkward eating dinner alone in the Plaka, the buzz around me was company enough.
