moments of our last summer days..
And now it's a bout time to start falling for fall.

underwater

feels good. I am convinced that diving is even better than screaming, when it comes to freedom's panic attacks. All photos by my super beloved Yannis.

traditions of olympos

Olympos is a small -unique- little village in Karpathos island. Forgotten by the Clock cause mister Time decided to stop clicking there. People are still authentic like the good old days. They are far away from the rest of the world and they just don't care. Their houses remain still the same as their grandparents' of their grandparents' houses. Their clothes too. Their way of talking too. The kindness, also. The food from their own gardens and the traditional crafts and habits. How can't anyone fall in love with this kind of beauty? And as soon as a visitor passes by, the locals welcome her by 'decorating' the hair with one of those beautiful hand made headdresses.
I could smell the place, the talks of the locals, the stones, the air. I could touch their thoughts. I could feel the pureness of the food. I guess, time stopped for me too there.

a word for this summer

This summer

I was reminded how it feels to just lay down and watch the colors of the sky while sunset is dancing with the sea-line.

I remembered what does the ‘do nothing’ mean and how revealing it can be deep in your brains.

On these vacations, I was taught, from scratch, the word chill

pausing words like ‘run like crazy’, ‘work’, ‘stress’, ‘what other people do’.

This summer I was, also, reminded that I don’t have to get crazy cool by drinking cocktails in several bars, but a slice of delicious watermelon works well enough to cheer me up.

This summer, I sat on a chair and talked to the sea. The sunset. The stars.

This summer, I didn’t have to use lights at night, cause i had the moon.

This summer I listened to my thoughts.

And I realized that the last time I had done that was when I was a kid.

karpathos island

sharing some of my instagram moments in karpathos island. An internationally famous windsurf Greek spot.
Had surf, peace, wild waters, rocking winds, fun, smiles and some more of these.
When mountains meet the sea and clouds meet the sun, then you know you are in Karpathos
