Where Should I go: Syros or Graz?

Syros

Syros may not be as well-known as Santorini or Mykonos, but this enchanting Greek island in the Cyclades has its own unique charms that are well worth discovering. From its neoclassical capital Ermoupoli to its idyllic villages and pristine beaches, Syros offers a delightful blend of history, culture, and natural beauty. While Syros is less expensive than some of the more famous Greek islands, it's still wise to plan your trip carefully if you're on a tight budget. The shoulder months of April-May and September-October offer pleasant weather and lower prices on accommodations. Budget travelers can find rooms for as little as €20-40 per night, or opt for camping around €5 per person. Eating at casual tavernas and buying food from local markets can also help keep costs down.

Graz

Graz is the second largest city in Austria and the capital of Styria. The city has at least six different universities, and a large portion of the city's population is actually made up of students.
