Yeah, this is it, that's the picture that I wanted to take for years! The girl was yelling in a frantic way. She was genuinely thrilled and deliriously happy! So happy that she made me feel uncomfortable.

Walking is a favourite activity of mine and a little rain never stops me from going out, especially when I have planned a very special stroll, at a very special place. And as you can see from the pictures,

I saw the first snow of the season this morning! Not that it snowed in the town but when I looked far away at the peaks of the mountains, they were white! I am sure that a lot of you, living in northern

During the last nine months that @traisto and myself have moved to Nafplio, I have shown to you, in many posts, our new town. The castle overlooking the town, the beach that we swim, the picturesque

Sunday visits to archeological sites is kind of a personal tradition, especially the first Sunday of each month from November till March. Why is that, you might ask. Living in Greece usually means that

In terms of photography, the first week of 2024 was very productive. The weather was mostly sunny and pleasant and I had a lot of time for daily walks on this amazing little town that life has led me.

Do you like sailing? I don't! But I do like taking pictures of sailing boats even when they are standing still at the port. So today I went for a stroll at the marina, to see how many boats are still there.

I felt the need of some sea breeze today, so I headed towards the port. The white clouds were just enough to make the scenery more interesting (photographically speaking) without stopping the warm sun

Today we had one more sunny and warm day, like the ones that don't belong in the middle of the winter bur rather in spring or autumn. But although I was out all morning, I didn't took my camera with me

During my morning walk, I took my camera with the intention of photographing a few wild flowers. It's something that I used to do often, during the last decade that I was living in the countryside but

Having friends over, is always an excuse to do some sightseeing ourselves. And although this specific monument is a landmark for our little town, I have never visited it before. Not in the last nine months

A few months ago, a friend gifted us a small pot with a succulent. It's a Christmas cactus, she said, it will bloom at Christmas. I thanked her politely but I never believed that it will actually bloom

Nafplio has many wonderful routes for walking and ever since I moved here, I have the daily pleasure to enjoy one of them. There is one though, by far my favourite! It is only one kilometre (0,6 mile)

I don't consider myself a winter swimmer for a simple reason. I am not! But although the calendar says that it is the end of December, it doesn't look or feel like winter at all. With temperatures above

In a few hours, a big part of the world will celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ in an abundance of lights, gifts and festive food! But for the first 300 years of Christianity, December 25th meant nothing.

It has been a long journey. A lot of things have happened, a lot of posts have been written, a lot of memories have been created. But now it's the time to wrap it up. It's time to pick up the thread of

It was our last day in the village and we thought that the proper way to say our goodbye was a long walk at the countryside. This time we chose a circular route that takes around two hours, maybe two and

I was fantasising about this post many months now. It was supposed to be my enthusiastic return to the #hivegarden community after months of absence. A post about the thrill of the olives harvest and the

Focused as I was, trying to park the car on the steep descent, I wasn't paying any attention to the view. There are only a few parking spots above the lake and if I didn't manage to fit the car there,

I looked out of the window only to see that one more gloriously sunny day was expecting us. Any work we could do, was already done and the fields were calling us for a walk to the familiar paths around
