点评:What a surprise!
We had never heard about Samos but we booked by coincidence because it was one of the only European destinations where they didn't expect cold and rain.
So happy we did it. It's a wonderful island. It's still authentic Greek. Most hotels and apartments are run by locals and those horrible all-inclusive hotels have not yet overrun and destroyed the island.
Samos is not made for mass-tourism. The roads are narrow, and there are hairpin bends everywhere. Some destinations are only accessible by 4×4 cars because there are no paved roads in some areas.
Most of the island still looks untouched and the coastline is rugged and just magnificent.
We have never ever eaten so well before on a holiday. Local cuisine is simple, but absolutely delicious. The food still tastes like food. I rediscovered flavors that I had forgotten because industrialization has taken over my own country's food supply.
I definitely took on a few pounds. I usually lose weight on each holiday, but Samos was the exception. The food is part of the experience here.
Greece has always been my favorite country in the world, and Samos seemed to combine all the good things I love about this wonderful country.
Beautiful landscapes, nice people, a relaxed attitude, a slower pace of life which has not yet been corrupted by the typical western obession with efficiency and speed, and glorious wonderful great fantastic food.
I loved loved loved Samos.
We did have quite a lot of rain though 😀.

我们从未听说过萨摩斯岛,但我们偶然预订了,因为它是唯一没有预料到寒冷和下雨的欧洲目的地之一。
我们很高兴我们做到了。这是一个美妙的岛屿。它仍然是正宗的希腊。大多数酒店和公寓都是当地人经营的,那些糟糕的全包酒店还没有占领和摧毁这个岛屿。
萨摩斯岛不适合大众旅游。道路狭窄,到处都是急弯。有些目的地只能通过四轮驱动汽车到达,因为有些地区没有铺好的路。
岛上大部分地区看起来仍未受到影响,海岸线崎岖而壮丽。
我们从来没有在假期吃得这么好。当地美食简单,但绝对美味。食物仍然像食物一样美味。我重新发现了我已经忘记的味道,因为工业化已经接管了我自己国家的粮食供应。
我的体重肯定增加了几磅。我通常每次度假都会减肥,但萨摩斯是个例外。食物是这里体验的一部分。
希腊一直是我最喜欢的国家,而萨摩斯岛似乎结合了我喜欢的这个美丽国家的所有优点。
美丽的风景、友善的人民、轻松的态度、较慢的生活节奏(尚未被典型的西方对效率和速度的痴迷所腐蚀),还有美味可口的美食。
我非常非常爱萨摩斯岛。
不过我们确实下了不少雨😀。
