I want to stay in this area pictured above for at least a month. I will consume a Mediterranean diet hike around in the hills and wander on the beach. Maybe I will write my memoir, a romance or two, and learn how to cook some...

The number three is a number, the smallest odd prime number, and what probably first comes to mind is the Holy Trinity(the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost)
It represents the realms we occupy: earth, water, and heaven. It...

After living in Greece for over ten years I have finally decided to bite the bullet and try to learn the language. It is a difficult one, and that is not just my opinion. However it is an interesting one and some of the medical...

I always thought that Gamophobia was a fear of PAC-MAN and/or Grand Theft Tractor (If you live in a big city instead of out in the country like I do, you might play a popular but lesser-known variation called Grand Theft Auto) or...

Looking for something different for dinner. Decided on a Greek pasta salad.
These salads are easy to make. And I had everything to make one.
You can use any kind of pasta you like. I had the spiral pasta in the pantry.
I...

I always knew the name Greco literally translated to Greek so I can't say I was all that surprised when my uncle did his DNA and it showed a good percentage of the ancestry as Greek that I was surprised, but my Uncle really wasn't...

Something I would like to share.
Let’s talk about Medusa.
She was a fair beautiful maiden who was cursed by the goddess Athena. Medusa was born of incredible beauty. Medusa was not always considered to be a Monster. Medusa was...

"Orphic" is a new word to me. It has an interesting origin. Some definitions say that it means "relating to Orpheus or Orphism."
I enjoyed learning about Greek mythology in high school and reading several of the well-known...

This is a new word to me. I think it's a timely weird word, considering that it's winter in my country (the US) and in many other parts of the world too.
Chioni means snow in Greek.
I've included a link below that gives a...

As mentioned in my diary recently, I gave my talk on general heraldry to the community centre on Friday, and it went well. I probably won’t do this one as a Science Fiction talk, which I considered for future conventions as too...

v\He is the Greek god of dreams. He has the ability to take human form and appear in our dreams. I want to remember mine and be visited by him. But, what form would he take? Lover? Foe? Teacher? Hmm. Any ideas?

I learned a new word today! Chionophobia. It's a very timely one, at least where I live.
Chion is the Greek word for snow.
I don't have a phobia of snow at all. But the only thing I really like about it is the way it looks. It's...

The Grecian Black dress, traditionally worn by the married and older female generation has made its abundance appearance over the last week - reading about it in "Goat in The Meze" where 'Bald Yannis' has made a killing with...

2 weeks ago I found a good book on Greek People. It is about Greek past history.. Good for studying, good subject. One thing that I am sure about, is, I will not learn the language. Too complicated.
Not that I am negative...
