The Greek Islands
European hippies flock to dozens of islands in the summer. Hot spots are Ios, Santorini, and Crete. “Other really hot places in the Greek Islands are Paros and AntiParos.

“I moved from Brussels to the little town of Mesnil Eglise (yes, Belgium) and see from the 75 habitants half of them are old and new tekno-hippies.

Byron Bay, Australia

[…] Continue reading
Australia
Many communes in the bush, ferals & some small hippie communities. Nimbin & Byron Bay are two cool places to check out. Also the Rainforest around Kuranda (good hostel there) & Cape Tribulation. Australians now spend more money on marijuana than on wine, and almost as much as BEER! How things have changed down under! […] Continue reading
Tikal, Guatemala
A very important hippy ancient Maya site. Stay on the island when in Flores. The town is a bit rough. Tikal is beautiful, make sure you go out into the jungles where you can see so many monkeys! The grass is top quality there too. But sometimes climbing those pyramids can be a bit of […] Continue reading
