The
Summer House in Santorini: What’s in Anna’s Beach Bag
For any romantic novel heroine on a Greek
island, a good beach bag is an important accessory. Not only does it look cute,
but it makes sure you have everything you could possibly need to find yourself,
find love and find a little bit of adventure. For Anna Linton from The Summer
House in Santorini, the ultimate beach bag contents look a bit like this:
Two phones: her Greek phone and her US phone
Let’s be honest, Instagram isn’t going to
scroll through itself, so the US phone has to be there for any WiFi-enabled
downtime. The Greek phone is for calling Nikos to give her rides up and down
the hill between the resort and the summer house.
Her camera (plus an extra battery, an extra
memory card and sometimes even an extra lens)
For any budding photographer, having equipment
on hand for whenever the moment may strike is CRUCIAL. Anna always has her
camera ready to go so that she can capture the sunset, or maybe just a photo of
Elena posing weirdly on someone’s garden wall.
Her white crocheted bikini
Because Nikos keeps dragging her off on
spontaneous adventures, and she’s learned to always be prepared. She could
probably find something less ~sexy~ since she’s trying to keep things platonic,
but she’d be lying if she said she didn’t enjoy the appreciation.
Sunscreen
Because Anna’s pale New England skin is NOT
built for the heat of the Aegean sun
A letter from Giorgos to Grace
As much as she wanted to collect her
inheritance and leave, Anna’s grandparents gave her a box of her father’s old
letters to her mother, and she can’t help but read them over and over, trying
to make sense of who her father was and what secrets her mother has kept from
her.
Euros
Mostly for buying more bougatsa. If you know,
you know.
