Travelling northwards from the small town of Kalloni with the heavy colors and scents, going past pine-trees and holm-oaks, to catch up the sun-set at the islets of Petra and at the embrasures of Molyvos Castle…

    To light a candle at the church of Panayia Glyckofiloussa, perched on the gigantic rock, that has been carved by the saltiness, the winds, the pirates' raids and the prayers… There I lose myself inside the narrow back-streets drunken by the scent of lilacs….

    Hanging about the sachnisinia of Vareltzidenas mansion and drinking in sun at the fish-taverns of Anaxos beach…

    Afterwards Petri settlement and finally Molyvos, Mythimna, the medieval princess of the Mediterranean with the shimmering Castle and the port decorated with its festive…at every moment of the year…

   Cobbled-streets, walked by knights, princes and princesses, tall and stone-built houses, mansions like small castles  - protected by the pirates and the evil eye- balconies, Turkish fountains, Byzantine domes andFFrusty crucifixes …

    Eftalou, endless beach with colorful pebbles, the abandoned Turkish bath and opposite the Asia Minor coasts…

    Eastwards Vaphios village overwhelmed with trees of Lepetymnos mountain…just complete the scenery… 

    That's Lesvos island …. A handful of Aeolean earth, sea and sun…
