Dear friends,
We hope and wish that you all are well.

This health crisis has given many of us the opportunity to reflect upon our own values and priorities. We, as a family, decided to change our lives years ago. We left the city and moved to this rural area at the family farm. We continue to maintain the biodiversity, we continue to farm organically, we continue to respect and enjoy our contact with Nature. |

I follow seminars, listen to interviews. I try to be updated with the new procedures scientists are proposing for hospitality. It seems, that when we re-open, our services will not be the same. When it is clear, when we have a manual in our hands, when we have studied it and learned the new procedures, we will let you know. We do not like the idea of disposable products or cleaning with bleach. We are searching for environmental friendly solutions that will agree with our philosophy. |
I keep myself busy with handicraft. I love to up-cycle things. I am lucky that I have a big storage space, making it easy to keep bits and pieces.

We humans are social creatures.
Hospitality is all about breaking the social distances. It is about bringing people together. When this is safe again, plan your vacation.
We will be here.

Easter was very quiet. I took a walk and saw that all flowers had woken up from their winter sleep and you could see colors everywhere. The olives are also ready to bloom. It seems we will have a good crop.

| In the midst of all this beauty an event broke our hearts. Our dog, Hati, disappeared. On a Thursday morning she was with Stefanos in the field until 12:00 and at 13:30, when he stopped farming for lunch, she did not come home with him. We searched and searched with no luck. Let’s hope that someone has her and she is happy. |  |

On the 1st of May I made the traditional flower wreath. This year I was alone remembering previous years when some of you gave a hand, picking flowers and arranging them.

Now that in most our countries traffic restriction measures are being reduced wear the “eye” that was included in our Christmas card and go out. This will keep you safe from evil eyes.. Alternately you can wear it around your neck or as foot bracelet. |
