The Isles of Greece! 2012: Attica and the Northern Cyclades
 

But my island lies low and away, last of all on the water
toward the dark, with the rest below facing east and sunshine,
a rugged place, but a good nurse of men; for my part
I cannot think of any place sweeter on earth to look at.
                                                       
Homer, Odyssey 9.25-28

What students said about this course

This course blew my mind! Also when Clayton says short hike be prepared for a 5 hour death march. And remember the rocks will always win. Words cannot describe how awesome this was, it rocked!
