Hints from Harry
Be careful driving on
the winding roads and make sure you have insurance! For me this island is a bit big unless you are with friends who know it and are willing to
show you around. You won't necessarily get that intimate island feel that you would on a smaller island. Lesvos is for those with more time to
spend. See more photos of Lesvos.
