Your photos are so exquisite. We actually stayed on Syros long ago, looking for a quiet, untouristy island, and this was the ticket. Stayed in an old captain's house turned small hotel up a hill, not too far away, overlooking the sea and close to a ramp that took us down to (you are so right) the stony 'beach.' Loved the food, the slow crawl of this island's life, and think there were only small local cruise ships that came in sporadically but thankfully left around 5. Your food photos made me want to faint. Ohh, so good. Also, i love your new name! Nomad Foodies is so perfect!
We stayed on Syros a couple of years ago and loved it. Having an all year round population gives it a good atmosphere. We stayed right at the top of the town, in the shadow of one of the churches (the Greek Orthodox one I think) and enjoyed amazing views.

Thank you so much for all the kind words, Jeanine!
Pretty sure we know the small hotel where you stayed in the Vaporia district. I don't think you'd find the island that changed from when you visited.
Great to hear. We loved the laid back feel of it, like it hadn't been 'discovered' yet.
Fantastic pictures. Once again, one of your posts has left me roiled by a combination of jealousy and wanderlust (complimentary 😂)
Congrats on the rebranding!
Happy to engender the wanderlust!
Thanks for reading and commenting as ever!
You took me on a little mental vacation ... I could even taste the food! Thank you.
So happy to hear that, Gerhard!
Utterly dreamy. 🌸
It really is, Dany!
You used to crew yachts?? And I now really want to go to Syros! Greece has been high on my list for so many years… 💙
It's how I first fell in love with travel, Sabrina! And yes, Syros is a wonder!
I had never heard of Syros, but now I want to go there. Thanks!
We can't recommend it more highly, David. It's really something!
Great story telling with lovely photos.
Thanks Ameiia! So happy you enjoyed it!
