The story

THANKS to Caterina for this enchanting trip, summed up perfectly in her words: "what a lovely tour… I still think back on it with nostalgia…". THANKS to Matteo for the dives, the games on the beach, the chips and the lemonades, but above all for his extraordinary desire to learn and discover new things.

A very special THANK YOU to: Stefano for his invaluable and spot-on tips and advice (Monemvasia and Elafonisos). Constantina & Bruno for dedicating such a delightful evening to us and for introducing us to a superb little restaurant on the outskirts of Athens.
