Christmas in London
I've been often told that Christmas in London is magical. But mainly because of my fear of flying, I've never felt brave enough to fly for more than 4 hours. The last time I visited London was for a very sad reason, soon after my graduation from the University of Geneva 30 years ago. I had seve...

Μου αρέσει πολύ το κολύμπι, η γυμναστική, το θέατρο και ο κινηματογράφος, το διάβασμα και το chat. Επίσης λατρεύω τα ήσυχα βράδια στο σπίτι μετά από μια κουραστική μέρα.

Leisure Time
Leisure time seems to be a luxury for me these days. I usually start work at 9:30 am and come back home at 9:00 pm. What's more, I work on Saturdays and more often than not, I've got marking to finish on Sundays. But I always regard my work as a pleasure or a leisure activity. Working with kids ...

Προσπαθώ όσο μπορώ να κάνω διατροφή και να γυμνάζομαι, αλλά έλα που δεν μπορώ να αντισταθώ στα Θρακιωτικα λουκάνικα ή σ'ενα καλομαγειρεμένο γιαουρτλού!

Healthy Eating vs Dieting
To be honest, dieting has never been my ultimate goal in life nor have I ever aspired to be as thin as a rail!. I tried it , though, years ago, in my mid thirties. All I managed to do was go on diet for five days and eat like a horse at the weekend. Then, in my early forties, I discovered the be...

Back Home from Hospital
I still can't believe that I was back home from hospital yesterday, after having had angioplasty of the leg on Tuesday afternoon! What's even more incredible is that two days later I feel great and my leg is hardly painful after the procedure. There's a bruise where the catheter was placed but...

Vascular Problems: Diagnosed with PAD
It's been a while now that I feel tiredness in my right thigh, especcially when I walk. As it was just tiredness , not pain, I didn't really consider this seriously. However, this tiredness has recently been getting worse and worse. If I walk up to 500 metres, I need to stop for a minute before ...

End of School Year 2011-2012
So, another school year has come to an end. Funny how I feel sad and already look forward to the new school year beginning in September. I guess this is not normal but I know in my heart of hearts that I'm going to miss my kids for the next two and a half months. I've been jam-packed with work l...

The Golden Coast Hotel, Protaras, Cyprus
The Golden Coast Hotel - Protaras, Cyprus The Golden Coast Hotel has been, by far, my most favourite hotel in Protaras since it was built in 1986. Since then, many renovations have been made - the most recent ones being in 2003 when 56 rooms were added to the main building. Out of 228 roo...
Πανέμορφο το αρχοντικό! Μου θυμίζει κάποια παλιά αρχοντικά που έχουμε στη Θράκη - δυστυχώς πολύ λίγα έχουν διατηρηθεί.

Archontiko Papadopoulou - Papadopoulou Mansion - Kornos, Cyprus
When the weather says so, Alkis and I enjoy a Sunday outing and lunch in the nearby countryside. Last Sunday, we visited the village of Kornos and had a memorable lunch at Archontiko Papadopoulou. That lunch was for us the best gastronomic experience of the Greek-Cypriot cuisine we've ever had. ...

Last Goodbye To Dimitris Mitropanos ~ H E L L A S F R A P P E
"All of us will mourn for you... because you belonged to Greeks everywhere" Genuine, a "magga" and a fan of the Olympiakos team, Dimitris Mitropanos will be buried today at the Athens First Cemetery at 14:00. His friends say that he was a man, with a capital "M," who stood by his princ...

Αχ εκείνο το αρνί του Θανάση...είναι όλα τα λεφτά! Χαίρομαι που σας αξίωσε ο Θεός να περάσετε το Πάσχα στην ιδιαίτερη πατρίδα του Αλκη μετά από τόσα χρόνια. Νάστε πάντα καλά και χρόνια πολλά.

Serres - Thessaloniki - Easter 2012
For many years, Alkis and I had been toying with the idea of spending Easter in Alkis's hometown - Serres , Greece. However, due to work, Alkis wasn't able to get away during Easter. As a matter of fact, the last time he celebrated Easter with his family in Serres was more than 30 years ago. Th...

25 March 1821 - Heroes Fight Like Greeks - Happy Independence Day!
No doubt the Greeks wanted their freedom from the very beginning of the Ottoman rule, but in the 18th century the idea of a free Greece grew into an organised plan. With Russian help a revolt started in 1770, which failed. Inspired by the French revolution and the heroic poems (thourios) of Rig...

Αγάπη είναι να θυσιάζεσαι για τον άλλον, και να κάνεις τα πάντα για να είναι ευτυχισμένος. Η αγάπη διαρκεί, ενω ο έρωτας όχι. Ο έρωτας είναι απλά ενα διάλειμμα απο όλους και απο όλα, ενω η αγάπη τροφή εφ όρου ζωής. Άλλωστε όταν αγαπάμε επικεντρωνόμαστε στις πράξεις, ενω όταν ερωτευόμαστε, επικεντρωνόμαστε στα λόγια!

Love is .......
Alkis and I would usually spend Valentine's Day somewhere special. But this year we both had a long day at work, so we celebrated Saint Valentine's Day at home. After all, home is as special as any place can be.. It was 9:30 pm when I got back home from work. Alkis said he was starving but...

My Favourite Songs
Music is an integral part of myself. I can't live without it. Classical music makes me relax after a hard day at work but I also enjoy listening to Rachmaninov and Mozart on the beach. My ipod is filled with their music. I like American oldies and Greek music, of course. . Here are a few of my f...

Computer Stories
I've been intending to get a new PC for the office since the end of term in May. It's one of those good, old PCs which has never caused me the slightest problem for 15 years now. The truth is, it was getting old, but I gave it some more RAM and here it was, as good as new. However, I did promise...
