a different guide for Crete

i won't say that i'm speechless, cause i've got so many things to say about this party of nature, which also can be called heaven. What an island.

in Crete, you can:

1. stare innocence and innocence stares you back:

2. fill yourself with a special fuel, which is called sun:

3. experience a small talk with sand: 

4. build palaces by the sea without urban planning services giving you queues and headaches:

5. bring the world upside down, with a single move:

6. put images together and get a full view of how God watches us:

7. change perspective:

8. surf not only on the internet, but try different worlds as well:

9. watch diamonds on the surface of the sea for free:

10. finally find out where is the middle of nowhere:

11. eat at this amazing restaurant and taste the yellow watermellon:

12. meet the cutest old dutchman on earth, who happened to find his destiny in chania and create dishes that can bring asia to your mouth:

13. walk in Paleochora and paint the surrounding view in your mind, just like you used to do in childhood:

14. get into the wild, walking the famous gorge of Samaria in almost 4 hours, ripping your sportshoes of excitement:

but most importantly, in Crete you can find the most authentic, kind, extraordinary people, that make your day with a great traditional breakfast and a huge -also traditional- smile.

if the wind was a scarf, it would be worn by me

when you feel the sand on and under your feet, when you feel the day is long enough not to care about time, when you need to put a moisturizing musk on your face before going to bed, when your skin screams for creamcare, when your body gives short shots of coconut emissions, when your fingers stick together cause of the watermelon broth, when you listen to sounds and you're convinced it's music, when you sleep on your buddy's arm while reading this old book you found in the basement, when you have forgotten that there's a little device called telephone or laptop, THEN you know it's summer. oh and then you don't care if you're not skinny, cause ice creams rock.
