Luke and Sally's Hippy Dippy Med Trip: Italy, Greece and Turkey 1997

Follow a brother/sister pair as they start in Italy and cavort their way through Greece before winding up in exotic Turkey. Party with Scandinavians on Greece's infamous islands. Look up through an 80 foot air hole in an underground city in Cappadocia. Receive dodgy medical advice from a newfound friend. This and so much more are waiting for you. Come along!

The Players:

  • Luke (the narrator): A 23 year old college student (yes, you read that right). I had been along pretty much the same route in 1994, and expected to just go through the motions. Boy was I wrong. But this trip confirmed in my mind my enjoyment of backpacker travel.
  • Sally (the sister): Though she had already been to Europe several times by age 18, Sally had not really been on a backpacking trip before, but she was as tough as nails, and she was just as lazy as I was, so from time to time we got along, when we weren't at each others' throats.
