I felt once more how simple and frugal a thing is happiness: a glass of wine, a roast chestnut, a wretched little brazier, the sound of the sea. Nothing else.
Nikos Kazantzakis

On a summer night, I have sat on the balcony drinking Ouzo, watching the ghosts of Greek Heroes sailing past, listening to the rustle of their sail cloths and the gentle lapping of their oars... and lain alongside Pythagoras watching him study the myriad of triangles in the constellations twinkling above us. Whether it was Crete, the heat, the Ouzo, or a combination, it is unequalled anywhere other than Santorini, in my humble opinion.
Phil Simpkin

Greece has got something like 1,400 islands. There is so much of Greece you can't know even if you're Greek. It's sprinkled out all around the edge of the Aegean, all over the place. It's already a secret place wherever you go, even if it's somewhere huge like Athens or Corinth. The place enchanted me.
Joanna Lumley

Laying witness to a morning of Aegean beauty. Planning to hop onto the 91 and go to Athens. The sun is warm and the sea is blue, the beautiful Grand Resort soon will be growing smaller in my rearview mirror.

I know Greece very good, but as they say, far from all of it. I adore this country, its mythology, archeology, history. Thank you for your excellent work which adds completely to all these words.

If you pleased Milka, then you know it's good John.
A great imaginative creation and you have left it to the viewer to decipher what is before them.
I see a lot of faces and shapes of things not human. It's like I am snorkeling as my eyes scan back and forth.
Another great all around work.
