The pictures looked great and we arrived at the house with great expectations. We weren’t disappointed. As architects we valued the immaculate restoration and the amazing attention to detail - materials, furniture, decoration, fully and tastefully equipped kitchen and bathroom. What captured, however, our senses was a remarkable sense of place that had a relaxing and invigorating effect. The light through the recessed windows, the theater of the trees blown by the wind, the sounds of nature compose a beautiful scenery only to be surpassed by the hospitality and warmth of our hosts - Alexandros, Karolina and Lambros. They made us feel welcome with warm politeness and respect for our privacy. We spend an evening together in the outdoor living room as if we had long known each other and as we parted it felt like saying goodbye to good friends. We carry the place in our memories and in a bottle of exquisite olive oil of the property we were gifted. Thank you. Till next time.
