Katikia = KALOKAGATHIA!
A sublime place of contemplation, intense beauty and pure Greek myth. I set off to explore this island with grand anticipation (which is usually a bad idea) but I could not hope to find anything more in line with my expectations.
The water, a stonethrow away from the house, is always ready to soothe, charm, intirgue and embrace its guests. The end of September, even with its random showers, proved a perfect time to visit this harbor of peaceful secludedness, allowing us to skin dip practically alone at any time of the day and night.
We had visiting friends at fixed times of the day: cattle and sheep come regularly and they are a spectacular scene to the appreciating eye!
I would probably change some of the interior decor if the house were mine, but I was so intensly blessed with all the beauty around us that I did not complain once. Everything was clean, practical and well organized. And the view...leaves you mostly speachless.
Alexandra, Olga's neighbor who welcomed us is extremely helpful and nice. Olga is a caring host who kept in touch and responded realtime to all my (special) inquiries.
I cannot but spend positive words about my sejour at Villa Katikia: I am fully recharged after only 5 days at this unique spot of the island.
Thank-you Olga.
