We learn Greek while traveling.
We “get to know” the autumn in Greece.
We discover the culture of North Evia, the local traditions and the beauties of the island.
We explore the language that is hidden between the recipes, the songs and the everyday life of the people there.
We communicate with the locals, hike, swim in crystal clear waters, come in contact with the nature, talk about the organic farming, the pruning and the myths around the olive tree.
We “get to know” the manufacture of handmade paper, learn the first steps of weaving and collect leaves and fruits for land-art constructions.
