Our Family visit at the Lasinthos Eco Park at Lasithi Plateau, Crete
I never thought much of any theme parks that do not feature a roller coaster but a chance visit to Lasinthos Eco Park changed my view. PhotoMan* was called to do his Super Hero Photography Thing there and was invited to stay overnight. Since pets and family are welcome at their apartments, Deka, our dog, […]
Birth of PhotoMan at the Himalayas
I often refer to my husband Kosta (Konstantinos Anastasakis) as PhotoMan because I believe even the most ‘regular’ human has Super Power and Super Hero names give me giggles.

Several people told me that I was a good writer. Huh? Every time it invoked a lovely warm feeling inside me but within a split second an elephant fell on my back. ‘Really? Em… Thank you!’ I would say while looking as if I was a good writer (how do they look like?) to show […]
Sitia Σητεία (Eastern Crete) – Lukewarm Heaven!
As the subtle charm of Sitia finally seeped through me, a line from a Talking Heads song came to mind – Heaven is a place where nothing ever happens. From Expectations to Confusions I arrived at Sitia with high expectations. The articles I read online all talked about Sitia people being the kindest and most […]
Richtis Gorge Φαράγγι του Ρίχτη (Eastern Crete) – Easy???
My friend Agent Q and I decided to walk the Richtis Gorge trail during her recent holidays in Greece because we wanted to visit the waterfall.
