If you're going to hop over to some Greek Islands, make sure you know how many stops the ferry makes.
Not knowing Greek, we hopped on a ferry to Mykonos and got off when the ferry finally stopped. After one and a half days on the island and not finding a single big club like we thought we would, we realized we weren't on Mykonos but actually on Tinos. Some of the locals on that island thought we were pretty dumb at that moment.
Greece is a beautiful country and I think you'll really enjoy it. Some people I talked to found Athens to be dirty and not a very memorable city compared to others in Europe but I loved it. The sprawling, low rise white roofs as far as the eye can see was really beautiful in my opinion, and the meandering streets and street activity was great.
