A boat trip from Corfu to Paxos and Parga

Pleased to share today photos from a boat trip my husband and I did last August during our stay on the island of Corfu. The excursion boat you see in the photo took us to the island of Paxos first, where we had a cooling swim a short walk away from the port of Gaios. The quiet little bay where we swam was as magical as I remembered from our first visit there in 1998 during our honeymoon vacation on Corfu.

SEE ALL THE PHOTOS HERE

The water is so crystal clear in that tiny bay that you can see every detail on the sea bed. And the rustle the water makes as it laps on the shore and scrapes the shingles makes this pleasing sound to the ears that I can never have enough of… Here is a short video I took to show you, guys. Have a listen!

You’re welcome he he 🙂

After our swim, we barely had time to grab a quick bite to eat before it was time to leave. Leaving Paxos, we set sail to the seaside town of Parga in the mainland of Epirus.

The beautiful architecture of Parga and the picturesque island at a short distance away from the shore made up a perfectly quaint landscape that just begged for photographs. Parga is such a stunning town for a vacation, with beautiful beaches nearby that can be visited by boat. I regret to say we didn’t have time to visit the island or the castle. We only had time for a quick lunch at one of the many tavernas on offer and a quick wander around the beautiful lanes before it was time to head back to Corfu.

Though the boat trip was fun, filling our senses with sheer delight, it was rather exhausting. We spent a good part of the day on the boat as the distances are great.

What I really wanted to do was visit Parga and head straight uphill to visit the castle, but as I said, there was no time. Plus, it was 3 pm by the time we arrived and the sun was hammering. What can I say? I am just a Greek – haha. So I ran towards the nearest awning for shelter. At this time, I normally have a siesta 🙂

By the way, if you visit the south of Corfu often and a boat trip to Parga is of interest, here is a tip: I checked a few of the local agents in Moraitika where we were staying in Corfu but no one was offering a boat trip just to Parga.

Towards the end of my stay in Corfu, though, I bumped into a friend, Soula Sakadaki, and she informed me she’d opened her own travel agency earlier this year. Soula is an awesome lady and a seasoned pro in the business.

Go pay her a visit if you’re visiting Moraitika and the surrounding villages and see what she has to offer to you. She is hoping to offer Parga as a single destination by boat next year and I cannot wait! Her agency is near the roundabout and it is called Soula’s Corfu Travel.

A day out on the Greek island of Poros and some tough days that followed

My husband and I had the most wonderful day in Poros earlier this month, travelling by coach with the local travel agent. We drove to Galatas and Palaia Epidavros too. We stayed in Poros for about 5 hours, and meeting painter and author Pamela Jane Rogers made it even more special for us. She gave us a private tour around town which was more than we could have ever hoped for.

What an honour for us and what an awesome lady she is. Pamela is a permanent resident of Poros for over 30 years now. You can see her artwork HERE. She took us inside so many of the little shops as we walked around the lanes, chatting to the locals.

One of the shop owners turned out to be Magda, a friend of mine! She used to have a shop in my town of Nea Peramos! Couldn’t believe it. Magda and her family are very talented, by the way. She, her husband and their children make various crafts to sell them in the shop. Organic soaps, knitted bags, woodwork and a lot more. Their brand is called Olive Lab and you can shop for their products online. Highly recommended, folks. Everything is top quality and perfectly natural!

SEE MY PHOTOGRAPHS FROM POROS

 

This is the cutest thing I’ve seen all month. I came across these kittens while walking around the lanes of Poros. Such a precious finding! I guess I saw them in the nook where they lay because I was looking for them, if that makes sense. My husband, Andy, and our friend, Pamela, were walking beside me and they’d have missed the kitties had I not shown them. It would have been such a shame. It was cuteness overload and we all need a dose of that daily, don’t we?

I do the same all the time now, looking for cuteness and beauty, whenever I walk around the seafront in my town. I make stops to take pictures of the sea foaming as it reaches the sand, of seagulls perched on the top of the fishing boats, and of the dramatic colours of the sky at sunset. Sometimes, I don’t even bother with the camera. I’ve come to find that the most precious ‘snapshots’ are those I take with my mind…

And I need these ‘snapshots’ more than ever before right now. They help my soul stay afloat, it seems.

Life has got too complicated for me since my father, Fotios, fell ill with depression last Fall. Even more so than when he was undergoing cancer treatment earlier last year, believe me. I had no idea, and neither did he, what it entails to have depression. It is not just a disease – it feels more like a monster, an entity, seeking to take your life, to destroy you. And it has an energy that affects those around you too.

This energy has permeated my being too by now, and it’s only recently that I realized. I am not saying I’ve got depression, no. Just that it’s got to me so badly that my innate propensity to feel and express joy has waned to unprecedented levels by now. This energy is dark and sticky…

If you’re spiritual like me and have a strong connection with your own ‘inside world’ and your own energy, you may understand when I say I can feel it. It seeks to weaken me from the inside, I can tell now, but I am holding strong.

Twice in the past two months, I’ve fallen ill with infection, and I never used to get sick for years on end. Bugs or viruses – no problem. My immune system kept them all at bay. Including covid. Throughout the scary period of 2020-22 I didn’t get as much as the sniffles. But upset and stress weakened my immune system to the point that, right now, I am wide open to it all, it seems.

As I write this, my voice is completely gone with laryngitis, a first in my adult life! It’s been 5 days now that I cannot speak, but I see a silver lining in this too, the way I try to find one in all negative things.

Not speaking out loud for days eventually shuts down your internal voice too. I just realized today and found it to be quite a blessing. It is so relaxing to tidy up a room or brush your teeth or wash the dishes and actually think of nothing! Mindful washing? LOL! Yes, it’s a thing. And I love it.

So I use these days of aphonia to reap a benefit. I do soul-searching. I ask questions. And I’ve found new guidance for my life, having also had some new insights about what I am doing that’s wrong and how I can change tack.

For starters, I know I will never let depression claim my father’s life or let its dark energies get to me again enough to make me ill repeatedly.

Prayers welcome, if you believe in a higher power. We are visiting a third psychiatrist next week. So far, two doctors couldn’t help my father, Fotios, increase his appetite to a level that can actually help him gain weight or even have a hearty lunch on any given day. I pray with all I got that this time we will find the right protocol.

If you have someone in your life with depression, or an elderly person who lives alone, know that the simplest thing you can do to help is say a few positive words to them. Loneliness is painful, really painful. Consider giving them five minutes of your time for a quick chat on the phone if you can’t drop by. It’ll make their day.

FREE spooky books, Hokkaido pumpkin soup and Greek ‘donkey’ weather

The ‘donkey’ summer in Greece continues…

Everyone knows the stereotype of the donkey that plants its hooves on the dirt and refuses to budge, right? And that’s why when the weather girl on TV mentioned the term ‘donkey summer’ the other day to describe our current strange weather, I nearly choked on my ‘tyropitaki’! Then I howled with laughter, seeing that I knew exactly what she meant. Turns out in their folk wisdom, the Greeks of old tended to call an Indian summer a ‘donkey summer’ and I was tickled to hear this term for the first time.

In Greek, we call it ‘Gaidourokalokero’ from the words ‘gaidouri’ (donkey) and ‘kalokeri’ (summer). Mamma Mia! fans, you obviously know the second word, LOL!

Indeed, this year’s summer refuses to budge, and it’s driving us all nuts at the moment. I have clothes laying out in my bedroom that belong to both my winter and summer wardrobe. It’s a mess. From one day to the next or even within the same day I don’t know what to wear if I’m going out. It’s not seldom to start my day in a light jacket, jeans and socks, only to be in a t-shirt, shorts and sandals in town by midday.

Weird weather for the end of October, that’s for sure! The really good thing is we don’t need to roll out the carpets just yet, or to fire up electric heaters or the central heating. The latter especially is a huge blessing. No complaints there, phew!

Check out today’s newsletter for the latest news from my life in Greece, a bunch of FREE spooky books, and my recipe for Hokkaido pumpkin soup to enjoy this Halloween!

The Raven Witch has a whole bag of tricks! Magic spells, bird shifters and romance on a Greek island. A suspenseful, spooky story with a good measure of sunshine. Episodes 1 and 2 are FREE for Halloween! Visit Amazon: http://bit.ly/2CZMlow

FREE spooky books and pumpkin soup

Hi, All! I’m getting excited for Halloween and offering a plethora of FREE spooky books in my newsletter today! Scroll down for the link while I stir this soup, will you?

Hmmm… My soup is almost ready. Now, I’d better make a start on the crunchy bat wing frittata. Hey! What’s in the cauldron, I hear you say?

Yum! Homemade pumpkin soup, that’s what!

And not just with any pumpkin, but with a Hokkaido pumpkin that is incredibly yummy and tender. I don’t know about you but I wash its skin well and leave it in! It is soft and has a wonderful texture when cooked. Plus, it means, you get even more beta-carotene 🙂

I liquidize the soup before serving but leave out about a cupful of chunks so I can throw them in the plates for decoration.

My recipe includes ginger and parsley, and it’s so warming and nutritious – an excellent choice for Halloween and any wintry evening, for that matter. You won’t find it in my recipe, but these days I also add 1/2 a teaspoon of turmeric to the cauldron (sorry, I meant the pot!)

Turmeric adds extra nutritional value to the dish. Plus, the color yellow makes a striking contrast to the green lizard tail salad I serve on the side (just kidding!)

GET THE RECIPE – MINUS THE LIZARD TAILS!

 

FREE spooky episodes! Lizzie is not your average tourist. She’s going to Greece on a mission. And it involves a shape-shifting, evil witch!

Seafood pasta, fun Greek news and free books for all! #funnews #Greece #freebooks

What do you see in this pic? Clams, cockles or kedonia? Whatever you call them, they’re just as yummy! Scroll down for a fabulous pasta recipe that uses this delicious seafood!

My father has now gone to his homeland – the island of Limnos in the Northeast Aegean – to spend the summer there. He makes me jealous on most days by telling me he’s been to the beach for an evening walk and returned home with dinner – the odd big crab to enjoy with his ouzo!

During winter, My father made a new friend, Mr. Dimitris, who loves to harvest seafood from the seafront, here in our little town near Athens. As of the late spring, Mr. Dimitris would stop by to bring my father the odd thing, like the porphuras I mentioned in a previous blog post, or mussels. Now that it’s summertime, he goes harvesting every day and drops in about once a week, bearing gifts straight from the sea, this time to Andy and me, seeing that my father is away.

More often than not, he brings clams these days, much to my delight.

I’ve always had clams raw with a splash of lemon juice and bread. When I was a kid, my father was forever opening them for me with a knife and putting them on my plate saying, ‘Add plenty of lemon! It’ll kill the germs!’ It’s so embedded in my head by now I could never have them raw without the lemon haha. Actually, I suspect there’s truth in this as well!

Anyway, I decided to try something different this time. So I looked for pasta recipes online and found this awesome one for ‘Tartufi di Mare’ which means ‘Truffles of the Sea’ and that’s how the Italians call clams/cockles, apparently! Excited to learn something new, I looked into the recipe and it sounded wonderful. Clams, garlic, white wine, chilly… It just sounded perfect.

 GET THE RECIPE HERE

I’ve now enjoyed this meal a couple times and it was such a success that I had to blog it, after making my own changes that is – i.e. I played with the secondary ingredients a little and changed the steaming procedure as well.

The pasta tastes as if it’s coated in butter. It’s just mouth-wateringly delicious. You’ll just have to try the recipe to see what I mean!

Note: You can use small-size oysters instead (called ‘clams’ in the UK or ‘achivades’ in Greece). These have smooth shells and can have various colors. 

The summer has officially started here at last! The sea is a little cool but so inviting, and the sun is scorching hot! We’re having a heatwave right now, temps as high as 40 degrees C. My husband took this photo of me last weekend. That was our first swim near home so it was a quick trip. There are many popular beaches in west Attica that are edged with pine forests, and we’ll be driving out a little further on the weekends from now on. Kineta, Agii Theodori, Alepochori, Psatha, Porto Germeno. So many choices 🙂
