There is always something melancholic about empty chairs,
but nothing meloholic at all about this great view to enjoy your drink.

One of the most beautiful trees in Greece a source of inspiration for many artists, the almond tree blossoms first of any other tree.

Greek mythology tells of the beautiful princess Phyllis, who was The daughter of a Thracian king. She fell in love with Theseus' son Demophon. The young man had ended up there while sailing home from Troy, and the king gave him part of his kingdom and married him to his daughter.
After some time Demophon missed Athens so much that he asked to go home for a while. Phyllis agreed after he had promised he would be back soon, and off he sailed. Phyllis was left waiting at the altar on her wedding day by her intended, Demophon. Phyllis waited for years for him to return, but finally died of a broken heart. In sympathy, the gods transformed Phyllis into an almond tree, which became a symbol of hope. When the errant, remorseful Demonphon returned to find Phyllis as a leafless, flowerless tree, he embraced the tree. The tree suddenly burst into bloom, a demonstration of love not conquered by death.

So pleasant to stand on shore and watch the stormy sea.

What better place for a captain to have his home.
Surrounded by the sea, next to a harbor. Suffering so much at sea, he still can't bear to live far from it.

The Towers of Mani are military hallmarks of a glorious era. In hard times of external enemy attacks the tower was an impregnable castle, and in peaceful times it was the guaranty for a quiet life.

Winter is a time to experience a different sort of Greece - one of rivers, mountains and glorious natural landscapes as yet undiscovered by mass tourism.

Swap the sandals for hiking boots, and visit one or several of the many winter destinations you’ll find on the map.

Weathered windows in an old house in Kardamyli, Greece.
Faded in colour, withered in spirit but still charming in their own way.
