Giwrgo is a wonderful, gracious, patient host, and his home is a wonderful retreat in the middle of Crete. The house was the perfect size for a retreat for 1 or 2, and we really enjoyed the privacy, relaxation, fresh air, and sunshine. And the very delicious fruits, vegetables, jams, and bread. Kastelli is just 10-15 drive away, and offers a small-town Crete experience with supermarket and taverns. Overall, the experience is one of simplicity and serenity, and of a slower and quieter way of living. I hope to visit again, but for longer than 3 days!
