Insta Weekend #3

Hello my friends!!!

Happy Monday!!! How was your weekend? Ours was full of Cristmas feelings! Yes, I know, it might be early enough, but what can I say? I love Christmas, I love the feelings of that period, the sweets, the Christmas tree, the walks with my family and that we almost have free time to see beloved people!

We finally decorate out Christmas tree and this year I had the chance to craft many cute ornaments with my princess. We really enjoyed it!!!

And yes, we also had a couple of walks and a great decaf coffee...I love coffeee and I really miss it his period!

So...are you ready for Christmas????

Walking around in Nafplio - Our Past Future....

Oh yes, I know, I’ve spoken about Nafplio already! Well we all have the tendency to say again and again how much fun we’ve had when we did have a great time, don’t we? I promise it’s going to be the last time …for this month at least!  

This time I am not going to talk about Nafplio as a town, but about its old railway station. It’s one of the city’s most famous landmarks. For some it could just be an ugly image of something old that’s been left without care. It may be that… but there is another side to it. The side of something old that holds so many memories and experiences and brings old and new together in one. Paintings, images, simple words of young people filled with anxieties, ready to make their own journey… 

   The engine…carrying so many vagons filled with feelings hopes...

....now harbors simple talk filled with expectations… 

"One’s darkness becomes light when he finds another”

The entrance or waiting hall as the sign reads. Waiting for a better tomorrow? 

Simple words… “I’ve lived in your lips”

Ready to make its new journey! The journey as defined by ourselves…

 Because everything is a road!

Have a great day!

Walking around in Nafplio

Hello my friends!

Happy new week! I hope you have had an amazing weekend! I did! It was our first short excursion with my daughter and I mean that we had to stay in a hotel. I was really anxious in the beginning but my girl was having such a great time, that every concern has gone.

We went to Nafplio, a beautiful coastal small town only 1.5h away from Athens and we visited a couple of good friends. I love Nafplio and to be honest I cannot decide if I love this town more on winter or on summer. On winter you can walk in its narrow streets while it is raining and have a warm aromatic tea in one of its beautiful and cute small cafés, while a couple of people play great songs with their guitar. So romantic.

But on summer you can sit by the sea and have great fish plates (aka mezedes) with cold beer or ouzo, after your swim in the amazing beaches.

As you can imagine, having a 2years old girl running around is not that easy to photo every single beautiful corner or detail of the houses, streets, people..so I have chosen a few pictures just to get the idea.

In the morning, the blue sea was so peaceful that I thought that it is easy to swim and get to Bourtzi island…well it is not easy at all…do not try it :)

   

Spring is here and aromatic plants were all over the place…even around the windows…

Every single corner is decorated with old but at the same time useful items!

You can admire unique shop full of handmade creations. 

In the afternoon, the sun and the clouds were playing hide and seek, leaving us with a great smile in our face. Beautiful, isn't it?

Amazing town, great history, adorable pictures, unforgettable memories… Have a great week!

kisses....
