Anti-Semitism still haunts Germany

2012-01-26T05:43:00.000-08:00

By personal experience, I agree with the article:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-16708340

Unfortunately enough in Germany, they have to make many steps forward in order to over come this very bad tradition.

Thanks to BBC for headlining such an important issue.

Old stuff

Let's Enjoy a bit

2012-01-11T07:55:00.001-08:00

Since this week was a heavy one, lets enjoy it a bit.

Pericles, Prince of Tyre

2012-01-07T16:45:00.000-08:00

I was lucky enough to reserve tickets for the following production of the Hellenic National Theater: Pericles by William Shakespeare. I really enjoyed this comedy, and I appreciated once again Shakespeare's talent.

Interesting enough, the whole show adapts modern headlines and reflects them back to Shakespearean script. The humor is not English anymore, but its Greek interpretation. Thus, turns out to be attractive for those that they wish to see how Shakespeare can be performed in Modern Greek Theater.

Tyrannosavros Movie

2011-12-01T03:10:00.000-08:00

Yesterday I had the chance to watch a very interesting movie. I will call Tyrannosavros a decent movie.

No doubts, it is not easy movie. If you enjoyed Gran Torino or Taxi Driver, then Tyrannosavros has several similar elements. The story is arround a single man; Joseph. Joseph suffers from anger and behaves extremely unsocial. Among other things, the film spots clearly the consequences of losing self-dignity. This film wishes to shock smoothly but hard. Some scenes are tough. You are not getting the feeling that this is done just for mass media advertisement. Rough scenes walk together with the story.
Thus, I enjoyed it, but be prepared for a strong tensed moved. Definitely, you are concerned what could happen to you, when you run some insane times. And unfortunately, our times are bit insene.

Good One!

Holidays in Kalymnos

2011-11-15T00:51:00.000-08:00

The Dodecanese (Dodekanisa) is complex of over 163 islands and islets, of which only 26 are inhabited, situated at the most eastern part of Greece, at the borders of Europe. You will find here a wonderful blend of architectural styles of eastern and western cultures.

Almost every island has its Classical remains, its Crusaders’ Castle, and its traditional villages.The Dodecanese Islands are composed of twelve major islands: Astipalea, Leros, Simi, Nisyros, Kalimnos, Karpathos, Kastellorizo, Kos, Patmos, Rhodes, Tilos and Kasos.

They are in the most oriental area of Greece, in the southeast part of the Aegean Sea, and are located just a couple of kilometers from Turkey. These islands have everything to offer to visitors: whitewashed houses, beautiful beaches with crystal waters, charming villages, exciting nightlife and more. In this diverse group of islands you can experience the traditional life without the tourist trappings.

If you are looking to enjoy your climbing in Kalymnos and you wish a decent hotel to stay in, then I wish to recommend you the : KALYDNA ISLAND HOTEL.

Mass Media in Greece

2011-04-09T02:59:00.000-07:00

These days, Greek media suffer from a five days strike due to the financial problems of the mass media industry.

In this post, I wish to introduce you few links from the Greek mass media community that you might find interesting:

Do Greeks have online radio stations? Or better, are out there any serious online radio station? Well, the answer is yes. Radio Bubble, a Greek online radio station, is a quite decent radio station playing nice music, organizing parties and art events. They are streaming from the center of Athens. Explore them, they have nice tunes. I will say, they have an alternative tone.
Alternative journalism in Greece? Good Question. Difficult to answer. Few attempts: The Press Project. Nice outlook, attractive articles. But a serious flaw. Everything is in greek....A recent project of the same guys is the DEBTOCRACY. A recent discussion about the Greek Debt, that you might wish to follow. No worries, a lot of english material here. So do not afraid. Click on it!
Yes. I agree. Greek TV is sort of boring. But these quys here: Ellinofreneia, they do a nice work. You might not agree with their way, but they have many good funny times.

Well, I come again with more links and videos about the Greek mass media life.

Ciao for now, and forget Spring is here.

House prices set to become more stable - forecast

2011-02-07T04:16:00.000-08:00

Dear All,

In this post, I wish to publish something about my industry. Any comments are welcome.

House prices have slipped heavily since the summer, offering opportunities for landlords with buy to let insurance to purchase more property at lower prices.

But those falls could soon be at an end, according to the latest Rightmove Consumer House Price Forecast.

It found that the public are increasingly hopeful the unstable housing market will start to calm down for the rest of 2011.

Two in five UK home-movers forecast that average UK house prices will remain around the same level in 12 months’ time.

This is the fifth consecutive quarterly rise in those expressing this view and, at 38%, is the highest level figure Rightmove has recorded.

Director Miles Shipside said: "There is clearly a growing trend towards consumers believing prices will be more or less the same in 12 months’ time, with around four in 10 people now of that view.

"In spite of 2010 being something of a roller-coaster ride for the property market, asking prices ended the year broadly flat.

"Prices rose consistently throughout the first half of the year though we measured some big falls in five of the final six months. This left asking prices just 0.4% up year-on-year and it is perhaps this levelling out effect which has encouraged a growing proportion of the public that we are set for an element of house price stability in 2011.

"However, we don’t yet know what the twists and turns of interest rates and repossessions may bring this year, and so it will very be interesting to see how home-movers’ confidence is affected if the 2011 housing market doesn’t turn out to be an easy ride."

Falling property prices are a mixed blessing for landlords - benefiting those wishing to buy more stock but lowering the value of their existing portfolios.

Lower prices also make it easier for other people to get on the housing ladder, thus easing rental demand.

However, something which can benefit all landlords is cheap landlords insurance by offering savings to home owners who rent out their property.

Removals in London

2011-01-31T08:40:00.000-08:00

Hi Guys!

Moving from one house to another, is always an issue. Especially in London, since removals is so frequent for everyone. Thus, you might be interested in the following company: Removal Services.

They are definitely reliable, well operated and proffesional. They cover all areas in London. For instance:

Man and Van Islington, Hire Man and Van Ilford, Removal Services in London
Besides their van service they offer a house removal Service.
They are one of the few companies in London expertising in Waste Removals.

I have personal experience with this company, and I do recommend them.

Fair Game (The film)

2010-12-03T08:34:00.002-08:00

I am sure that 2003 sounds already a definite past for all of us.

Fair Game's story, though, recall us many 2003 memories, like: Iraq War, President Bush, CIA and few others.

I enjoyed the movie. I respected both Naomi Watts and Sean Penn for their acting performance.
Suprisingly enough for such a movie, the music was awesome!

Few points about the movie:

It is interesting that the word democracy in USA is understood as a political system of only two parties.
I was not convinced that Mr. Wilson's article is a spotaneous action. I am not saying that it was a wrong action, I am just saying that does not seem to be an innocent act.

I am looking forward for the next movie that using many elements of the recent past could explain us the difficulties of today. And such a movie is coming......:)

You Will Meet A Tall Dark Stranger

2010-11-16T00:55:00.000-08:00

Hey,

I watched, over the past weekend, Woody's Allen new movie. In brief my comments:

- As awlays clever script.
- Excellent casting.

You might get surprised by the not that happy tone of this movie.

Almost everybody turns himself to troubles. The story is about a family consisting by two parents (in their 60s), one daughter and her husband and includes some people from the working environment of both. As always, some random ladies or guys appear in the story.

Something to note here, is the consistent failure of the protagonists to make rational thoughts. They always act based on their emotions and they demonstrate a quite complicated personalities.

A strong recommended movie.

If I should to criticize, may I say Mr. Allen that personal responsibility is definitely very important for our life. But what about other sort of responsibilities in your movie? For instance, social or political?

Below the trailer:

A good one.

I hope you are all good!

The last week, for my Easter holidays, I was in Greece. I spent my free time in Spetses, a wonderful island of the Saronic Gulf.

Despite other things, for those of you visiting Athens, I would like to remind you that you can discover Athens by using its rail and metro network.

Neo Irakleio (New Irakleio) is a suburb of Athens with lovely cafeterias that I am sure you will love to visit. Personally, I go to Amandi cafe :)

Near to the main town, you might wish to spend some hours in Fokionos Negri, a pedestrian street over Patission Street with strong architectural influence.

Do not let yourselves down and lost, and discover Athens.

We will post soon, saying more things about the Real Estate in Greece. For now, do not forget to visit Properties in Greece.

Folegandros is a small, charming and sunny Aegean island. The natural beauties and the warm hospitality of its residents have turned the island into a popular travel destination. It is the perfect place for those wanting to relax.

The island of Folegandros belongs to the southwest Cyclades. It is located between Milos and Sikinos islands. It has an area of 32 sq. km and a length of shores that reaches up to 40 km.

Its three small villages, Karavostasi (the port), the Chora , Ano Meria and Agali Beach are connected by paved roads.
The Chora, closed to car and motorcycle traffic, has a unique "center" of three squares in a row, with trees under which to enjoy a drink or food in a quiet, romantic atmosphere.
Chora is comprised of two settlements, the Medieval, inside the Venetian castle and the modern one, outside the castle walls. Make a walk around the cobblestone paths of Chora and let it enchant you.
The church of Panaghia , on the top of a hill, offers a nice walk and a magnificent view of the Chora and of the west coast.
Aggali is a small coastal settlement you must visit. The homonym beach is one of the most beautiful in the island. While being in the island don't miss visiting the settlement of Ano Meira with the green fields.
The bus is the main transportation mean of Folegandros, to take you either to the port or to the various unpaved roads that lead to the beaches. Car and moto renters in the Chora. Also, to reach the various beaches little fishing boats depart daily form the port of Karavostasis.
Folegandros is a main stop on the ferry line Piraeus - Milos -Santorini , and it has also frequent ferries or hydrofoils to Paros, Mhkonos, Ios and the near Sikinos.

A tour around the island will stay forever in your mind, while you' ll have the chance to take some amazing photos.

So, be patient and in a few months everyone will have the opportunity to visit it!

Two websites.

2009-12-01T20:09:00.000-08:00

Entertaintment is a very important subject to our lifes, therefore we should appreciate any project that offers quality fun services. Quality entertaiment services to be honest its difficult to find on Internet, since the www globe its conquered with billions of completely distrustful and poor web platforms, full with spams and un professional set up. I am happy to introduce you against the poor mainstream two useful links:

One is about chess, that we all like, play and enjoy: Chess.com . A serious project, quite well maintained and the right example of showing how a website could be so useful for one subject. I really liked it, I really do.
Music is definitely commercial. But commercial should also mean quality. And an example of a decent, cute music online store we have: Music Store. I recommend it, I like it.

Lets hope that more interesting web platforms will be online such the last two! Next time I will post with some Greek websites that you might wish to look at!

I Liked it!

Some Hints for buying a property in Greece

2009-11-07T14:29:00.000-08:00

I had a long conversation recently with a friend and asked me to summarize as much as possible the main points that a potential buyer should consider for buying a house in Greece. After all he
convinced me and tonight I will try to publish my thoughts. Lets go on then:

I value as very important how the potential buyer tries to complete his decision for buying a house in Greece. Needless to say that any buyer should get an advice from an experienced and reliable agent. A good agent should have already a good portfolio of properties for showing to the customer. Also to be well motivated for searching and looking for houses matching the
requests of the customers.

Now when a buyer and agent have decided for some houses, it is important to schedule viewings of the related properties. The viewing or the art of viewing it is so important for choosing the
right house. I will say, without underestimating the factor price on property transactions, that the viewing is equivalent important. By the viewing you could check the quality of the
construction, the quality of the furniture and etc. One viewing might not be enough! So do not hesitate to visit your potential house couple of times.

Of course much of time should be spent for checking any legal issues regarding the properties and lands. But this also could be one of the obligations of your agent.

So after all, I will value the factors of price, of viewing and quality of the construction as very important for choosing a house in Greece.

If you have any queries regarding finding or searching for a house in Greece, check this link out: Properties in Greece

I am sure that their team is motivated and good enough for providing you good services.

Till the next time, take care please.

Gran Torino vs Taxi Driver

2009-10-19T12:16:00.001-07:00

I will leave it as a puzzle because I think it is interesting. Is it possible to find any similarities between Gran Torino and Taxi Driver? I think there are couple of them. I will post some time next week my opinion.

Ciao.

Clint Eastwood

2009-10-18T09:00:00.000-07:00

I would like to devote this post to Clint Eastwood's movies. My first experience about his movies was the "Letters from Iwo Jima" and actually that happened accidentally. I had a business trip and BA for long distance flights usually plays movies on their monitors. That movie really triggered my mind. I was watching stories that I had listen and well understood by my grandfathers, but this time played from different people, say Americans or Japannese-does not really matter.

That was, I realized that Eastwood is a great director, besides his wonderfull acting skills. He took a story and he knew that his work could attrcact both domestic and internationall appeal. Okay, I stop here because if I start talk about this movie I never end.

Recently, I watched Gran Torino. Another master of piece. I enjoyed Gran Torino among other things for its realistic elements. Eastwood in this movie is not getting afraid of mixing many things, like how it is to be a kid in USA, how Church, does not matter of which religion, effects the real life, how Asian immigrants live and think in America and many more.

I like his movies because apart of the story, that of course always has something artificial for being interesting, is based on so many realistic elements. And this is something that you do not meet in modern directors nowdays. Modern directors it seems that do art for their art. It seems that some of them are not carefully touch and study the reallity.

Anyway, if you have not done it yet, please get the DVD and watch both movies. I am sure that you will have something to say about. If you like to have a look check these links out:

Clint Eastwood
Gran Torino Song (Excellent!)
Gran Torino Trailer

I will come back with more suggestions and finally with some posts about houses in Greece. Till then you might wish to check this link out: Properties in Greece.

Monty Python

We really love Monty Python and we really love to post here some of their work. An example :)

Active Member

2009-10-12T14:00:00.000-07:00

I am sure that you might think that in Greece the music industry is bit boring since Greek music seems to be more or less predictable. Well, that is almost true...but there are sometimes when sounds like the sound of Active Member make some difference.

The following song is by Active Member, a song entitled Strange Days-Awesome Days and even if you are not getting what they say, I think their music is rather simple and attractive. They rap only with one guitar, thus is worth listening.

Next week, we will post several houses for sale in Greece.

Beatles

2009-10-04T04:59:00.001-07:00

Dear All,

Ciao for now.

Stereo Nova

2009-09-20T11:13:00.001-07:00

Tonight is time to say something about a great Greek band that definitely was underestimated when was active. Their name was: Stereo Nova and I am linking their wiki page. Instead of saying much, I would prefer to post one of their songs by 1992.

The song is titled: New Life 705 where 705 was a bus line in Athens. Their music sounds so fresh and great even for today! Simply because they knew to write music.

We will post again, and if you are looking for a house in Greece check this page out: Properties in Greece

Kurt Godel

2009-09-19T15:30:00.001-07:00

In this post I would like to change a topic and to introduce a prominent figure of Mathematics by a software trick. For those of you using firefox you might try to type Godel in your http address space. Then you should be forwared to this page: Kurt Godel. Please take some time to read it.

We will post soon again.

Remix Again

2009-09-16T10:11:00.001-07:00

Well, I need to be consistent and to keep posting some music!

This time a remix of that song: Your own Personal Jesus.

Well what we could say about that song and Deepech Mode? A possible answer is that a giant tried to re-visit their song:

Johnny's Cash version might not have the interesting guitars of Deepech Mode, but in one sense it brings a spiritual feeling to the song.

Enjoy listening :)

Flood Maps

2009-09-16T09:40:00.000-07:00

I just found a clever application based on google maps that gives you the sea depth on different places of the globe.

Flood Maps

An interesting tool for those looking to buy a house in Greece for instance and to check whether that sea is friendly for their kids.

Regarding properties, interesting offers for properties in Santorini can be found here: Properties in Greece.

Ciao.

Henry Rollins

2009-09-12T20:29:00.000-07:00

We or me again :)

This morning I would like to host some lines about Henry Rollins. You might remember his figure by his MTV performances, but Rollins is something more than MTV presenter. His radio show in states still rocks and we are always look forward for his unique play lists. A bbc show from early 90s might give you more idea about his work:

Fortunately his blog is constantly updated and you could have a look: Rollins.

I really want to avoid to classify him, because he is good in whatever he does. He is a musician expert in what we say rock music and suprisingly enough for an American awares the European music. He does stand up comedy, and he is goooooooood!

Well, we will dedicate more lines about Mr. Rollins and we hope that he is considering us one of his Fanatics!

Oh, yes, once again, if you are looking for a house in Greece or for a Property in Greece, please visit that website: Properties in Santorini.

By the way his play lists should be considered as test against youtube.com for missing material.

Ciao.

Lady Hawk

2009-09-11T15:45:00.000-07:00

Good Evening!!!

Well, we will keep posting music and I hope that we will keep the music thread of this blog being interesting.

This time I would like to introduce Lady Hawk. Nice music and despite the fact that she is British, I think she has some strong American Country-Rock influence.

I am sure she is going to be quite popular in countries like Greece, Denmark and etc.

And as always, if you are looking for a house in Greece, please check this out: Properties in Santorini .

I am looking forward for your suggestions.

BBC

2009-09-06T13:19:00.001-07:00

Tonight I would like to congratulate BBC for its website for the following reasons:

1. They provide a low graphics option for many of their pages! Yes, even if we live in hi-tech ages, for so popular websites, it is important to provide LOW GRAPHICS options.

2. They have upgraded their main page in Ajax, but they keept the whole website as it was: Simple!

3. BBC's logos even in their web version, are state of art! Nothing too much, nothing less, just perfect!

BBC's website reflects what BBC is for us: Professional and a long standing Expertise.

If you are looking of course for a Property in Greece, please visit the following website: Properties in Greece

Not Yet

2009-08-31T05:29:00.000-07:00

Dear All,

We are almost back in the usual work life after our short but valuable break. This year we visited Andros, after two years.

By visiting the same island again, you have the chance to review the local life and its services with more information than your last visit.

We sum up, this year's visit in Andros as follows:

I found Andros bit expensive. The renting prices were 10% more than the expected. Prices of 80 euros per night at the main town of Andros over August is definitely expensive. The local community should re-consider if their prices match their services as well.
The quality of the restaurants was good, not that much good as 2 years ago. The prices at the most of places was fair. I witnessed though that some restaurants were not displaying in public their prices and if you were unlucky enough to stay there, then to pay something overprices. An example some of the restaurants at the main town of Andros. But over all the quality and price here was fair.
I would like to congratulate once again, the Ermis Patisserie for their quality and service. Almost all their products like galaktoboureko, pastitsa and etc were clean and tasty!

Andros is a beatiful island and I really enjoyed my time there. Andros has a unique nature for hiking and difficult to approach extraordinary beautiful beaches

Regarding the real estate, there were not that many houses in stock and I saw many interesting projects. I realized that Andros is a difficult place to buy and build, but definitely a worth move to do.

At the moment, things are still difficult for the real estate industry in Greece, but it seems that there is some progress, especially with houses and lands of reasonable price like 60.000-180.000 euros.

I am wishing you a good start for your autumn and if you are looking a house to Greece, check our constant reference: Properties in Greece.

Keep Rolling....

2009-08-10T18:12:00.000-07:00

Well, the summer is not over for sure and because whoever is lucky enough to say these words: Lets stick together.....we dedicate them this song:

Well, Bryan Ferry in his best moments. And a question: who is that lady performing next to him?

Summer is for sure related with Greece, and if you are looking for a house there, have a look here: Properties in Greece, Properties in Mykonos.

Take Care.

Summer

2009-08-02T07:50:00.000-07:00

Sorry, because is summer and is a quite hot day, I need to relax a bit. Therefore Fergie on your screens:

For relaxing....Fair performer. I hope you are enjoying your summer and especially if you are in Mykonos or Santorini. Properties in Mykonos and Santorini here: Greek Properties

Google Weekend.

2009-07-31T11:41:00.000-07:00

In this post we summarize properties for sale through all Greece as they are posted in Properties in Greece.

In total there are 203 houses for sale in Greece and we classify them in areas as follows:

From these we might note the following houses, unique offers for our opinion:

Traditional House in Zakynthos: A recently posted house in Zakynthos; a typical example of traditional house in Ionian Islands. Beautiful garden in very good location of Zakynthos. It deveserves your attention. More information here: house for sale in Zakynthos
Syros is one of the most recommended islands for buying a house at this moment. Syros offers you almost everything in Cyclades: is the capital of Cyclades, easy access from Athens, near to other famous touristic destinations (Mykonos, Santorini, Tinos) and one more thing: it is beautifull! Therefore a house offer like this: Properties in Syros should be penciled.
Milos is clever choice for a house in Cyclades. Note that sourcing for a house in Milos is difficult and some times takes time. At the moment this is a house to note from Milos: House for sale in Milos
Now something different. Have you thought about Halkidiki? A great offer in Halkidiki is this beatifull house: Property in Halkidiki
Another house a typical example of a traditional houses in Greece, this time in Crete: House for sale in Sitia

And if you are looking more information about weekend, check this out: Weekend

There are some songs pending...I know. Be back soon.

Google Morning.

2009-07-29T01:36:00.001-07:00

Google is an intelligent search engine machine where most of you use for finding even this blog! Most of the times I am sure you type full words for search items; did you ever tried a single letter, instead?

In this post I will post Google's alphabet-apparently Google has fixed these searches:

A- As you might well expected, wikipedia's article about the letter A: wikipedia-A . Interesting to point that for the letter A, the famouse Physics Journal comes as the second listing: Physical Review A
Link: Google A

B- Interesting. The same pattern here. First link is wikipedia's article about letter B: wikipedia-B whereas the second link is about the Physical Review again, but this time its B version: Physical Review B.
Link: Google B

C- Well, you guessed right. Speed of light as the first link. You need to type small c instead of Capital for obtaining the speed of light. The pattern remains the same, next link should be about wikipedia's article for letter C.
Link: Google C

D- D programming language?.....first link: D
Link: Google D

E- The pattern here is destroyed here :) First link a link about celebrities....: Celebrities
Link: Google E

F- I am sure you though something else for a first link! Well, first link is about Ford's Motor Company. Ford dominates also the letter F: Ford in Stock Market
Link: Google F

G- Spot on! Letter G is for google right? gmail the first link. Actually the should have all the first page with google's products...
Link: Google G

Well, I will not continue with all of them, since the game is straightforward. Just try the single letters of the alphabet and see what the machine brings. I continue with the letters that I found more funny or interesting:

Small h, brings max plank's constant: h
I is dominated by apple because of the itunes most likely: i
Small k, science again,Boltzmann's constant:k
L, no suprise, latex is first: l
M, suprise! for a first time a movie is first for a single letter: Movie m , Letter M
W, suprise! one more movie for a letter: Letter W

Lets hope that google will match properties and greece with this: Properties in Greece
or Properties in Mykonos

I will post soon with more google tricks and its interesting phenomena! Stay tuned.

David Bowie

2009-07-27T01:52:00.001-07:00

I can not think my summers without listening Bowie's tunes. Undoubtedly one of the most important figures of the music industry. An artist that understood that being a musician does not only mean record sales, but also ART. A word completely missing from the vocabulary of modern artists and musicians. He had and he has an opinion for his work and I really appreciate him. Since we talk about remixes, this is a song by him:

and this is the remix. May I ask you to guess who are they?:)

Anyway, please try to enjoy your time even if you work and listen a lot of music. It helps! And of course do not forget to visit Greece or to look for a house there: Properties in Mykonos, House for sale in Zakynthos, House for sale in Santorini and Properties in Syros.

Take care, next post very soon.

2009-07-26T12:00:00.000-07:00

A great website, I am strongly suggesting you to look for the ships travelling in your area:

Live Ships Map

I really appreciate when people are being creative and provide modern and solid solutions. Well done!

By the way, Greek seas it seems to be one of the busiest ones this period. Mykonos, Cyclades in general, Ionian Islands on the map are full with ships of any kind.

Salom!

2009-07-23T22:05:00.000-07:00

Good Morning Again!

Today's song comes from a pure artist and strong writer: Leonard Cohen. The song is the Future by Teddy Thompson and his beatiful country-accent.

For your records, check also an old version by Leonard him self.

Just to point some lines from the lyrics:

Give me back the Berlin wall
Give me Stalin and St Paul
Give me Christ
or give me Hiroshima

You Mr. Leonard Cohen, you know to put words in a line.

Enjoy your living in Greece (and everywhere actually) and if you are looking for a house in Greece, please check these ones out: House for sale in Mykonos, House for sale in Paros and House for sale in Syros.

We will post again!

Good Morning!

2009-07-20T07:58:00.000-07:00

A rather simple post for saying Good Morning! Midle of July and the summer is not over for YOU PEOPLE :)

I hope you enjoy some summer moments by wearing new clothes, eating something different and listening a lot of music. Today's song is by Kasabian: Where Did All the Love Go.

Just turn the volume up and enjoy your summer day in Syros, Mykonos, Milos, Tinos, Paros, Andros or from the other part like: Lefkada and Zakynthos.

Merci!

Hoi!

2009-07-16T19:39:00.001-07:00

Well, a general comment:

Things are okay. And we enjoy! Great Band! So much New York!

And if you have the chance, try some Scooby Snacks!

And you can listen this great song at your house in Greece :) Check out some of them here: Properties in Greece

Greek Food!

2009-07-15T19:19:00.000-07:00

Because you might be already in Greece and being curious for trying new tastes, here we are, from now on we start posting recipes and videos about Greek Food.

Undoubtedly pastisio is an excellent summer food! It is actually very similar with Italian Lasagna, but for sure different. You can read a very interesting lemma from Wikipedia: Pastitsio

I will say, that many people cook Pastitsio with a seperate layer of potatoes at the bottom. I prefer it with out potatoes, but is still worth trying!

Now before giving you the link of how Pastitsio is made, here is its photo:

And please watch out this link: Pastitsio Video where a Greek Lady cooks for you this tasty meal. Sorry I could not find any English speaking video about Pastistio.

Pastitsio is definitely one of the Greek foods that you could try at your own house in Greece either in Mykonos, or in Santorini or in Ionian Islands like Lefkada and Ithaca, where they have a long tradition about Greek and Italian food mixes.

next post about Gemista! Sorry Guys, I have started being hungry already :)

ABBA

2009-07-11T14:25:00.000-07:00

Well I found always interesting ABBA's performances, but this one with the japanese kimonos far funny:

ABBA is an example of an extremely interesting band, with fair good music and an unbeaten sold records. But apart of their music, ABBA were a unique example of professionalism for the international music scene.

And since we were saying about remixes, this is a new remix of their song:

The comments are yours! The sound quality of the video, is not that great.

Music Remakes

2009-07-04T07:08:00.000-07:00

In our last post we were discussing about remakes of old songs; songs difficult to interpret for new audiences.

An excellent, well made and well studied remake of Kemal, a song by Manos Hadjidakis from album Reflections, is the following tune by Raining Pleasure:

Many Congratulations to these young guys, attempting a difficult music piece. With no doubts, a magnificent work! The vocals are pretty good and unique. The music is quite technical as always Manos Hajidakis might wanted.

For your comparison, please have look at the original version of the song here: Kemal by Manos Hadjidakis. . Sorry they have disabled any outside embeding.

Raining Pleasure is a promising, young band from Greece. Some nice tunes that you might be interested in, are: Fake, Dancing Queen (a remake of Abba's song) and Capricorn. The last one is very strong pop, english influenced song. You will find that songs either in youtube or in their website.

I hope that you enjoy summer and you find blog's music posts interesting.

In the meantime if you are looking for a house in Greece, please visit the website: Properties in Greece. But Greece is not only Summer, is also Culture :)

I will post soon with more music lines.

Music Again

2009-06-29T12:28:00.000-07:00

The last days there is a great debate in Greece regarding the following remake

of the famous song of Mr. Mikis Thodorakis and Mr. Giannis Ritsos Otan Simanoun Oi Kampanes. The band is named Blue, and is quite popular among young people in Greece. The new version has been made with Mikis Thodorakis permission. The original version is available here:

where a very interesting performance of the same song can be found here:

Please note how the audience dances and signs; magnificent.

The debate now is focused on whether such important and prestigious songs need any such remakes. My opinion is that music always seek new contributions and new interpratations of old meanings and works. Therefore the remake in advance, as an action, is not against of any rule of music. Of course this does not mean that we should force our selves to love any remake because is using modern electronic tunes and sounds.

To be honest, I did not dislike the remake, but I do believe that the tune fails somehow to reflect song's history and lyrics. The music is modern, but is open to question if matches with the song and many times sounds very predictable. But anyway, because I strongly hate misery, I am open for new sounds and experiments. Therefore, I am not declining it already.

I hope that there are more remakes to come.

I am interested to hear your comments and very soon I will present you more remakes of famous Greek sounds.

The summer is here

2009-06-26T11:34:00.000-07:00

There is no doubt! The summer is here, and we enjoy its first weeks. Because many times pictures describe things better than any narration, I will post some photos from Santorini:

Some things to note. Please have a careful look at Santorini's land. Its colour due to the ancient volcano of the island is something unique. Another thing to point is the dense building at the main town of Santorini. One small house near to another small house. Prices in the center of Santorini due to its unique sea view are sometimes very expensive. But you could find other places with unique sea views in other places of Santorini. If you are looking for a house in Santorini and you need some advice, please hold off this website: House for sale in Santorini.

Impressions

2009-06-21T06:08:00.000-07:00

Dear All,

In this post I would like to express some thoughts regarding last night's opening of the new musuem of Acropolis. I will summarize my thoughts as a collection of points:

A great night for the cultural life of Athens. The museum was a strong demand of the Greek society for about 30 years. This museum at least for now, hosts our hopes that the Greek society and its authorities will appreciate and realize the importance of studying and promoting the history of the Greek Land. Its was a night of hope, of future expectations and just Great!
I will say that I was not that much happy how the issue about the conflict between the Greek Goverment and the British Museum was presented. First of all, I do not like by anyway English to be declared as thiefts or barbarians due to Elgin's actions (Elgin Wiki page). Elgin's actions might be considered as illegal or against the long history of Athens and it is bit shame to accuse any British for this. I am sure that the majority of Greeks, respect the English history and recognize Britain's role for our independence (Navarino Battle). I am sure as well, that many Greeks believe that the British Democracy can extensively discuss the return of Parthenon Marbles to Athens by suggesting a mutual solution. I felt that we need these words for limiting the conflict between the British Museum and Acropolis Museum instead of presenting it as a conflict between England and Greece.
Now back to the solutions. Regarding the marbles, I feel that we need to state the problem as a modern international issue that everybody hopes and aims to solve. And the solution is quite technical. It would be very interesting for instance if Greek and U.K. universities together with the directions of the British and Acropolis museums to investigate a way for merging the seperated parts and exposing them both in Athens and in UK. In technical and scientific terms, this merging is very challenging.
By concluding this post, I would like to point that now is also the right time for the society of Athens to build Athens around this museum by improving the public services, by improving the quality of transpotation and the urban planning of the city.

I hope that I explained at last, that the existence of this museum is a need of the global society and it should not be used for enhancing the conflict (if there is any) between Greece and England. We had bad times and we have some bad times. England has its own bad times and for sure modern bad moments. Lets look forward for a better future. We need it!

I will appreciate your comments.

Dear All,

Just to let you know that you could watch live the official opening of the new Acropolis Museum. The link is here: Live Acropolis

I strongly believe that would be a wonderful opening reflecting the importance of the museum in Athens. The event should start at 21.00 Athens-Gr Time.

I will appreciate your comments.

I am sure that you have realized my sympathy and support to KT Tunstall. In this post please enjoy a nice song that could keep you company over your time in Greece.

Saving My Facing! I will do the right thing!.... A Great Song by a talented artist. I think there is some country influence in her songs. But stop and just start imaging listening this song while you are enjoying your breakfast in one of the nice cafeterias of Ano Xora of Milos or Syros and looking the Aegean Sea. Just fantastic!

And do not forget, regarding houses for sale in Greece, check this out: house in Mykonos

Over the weekend, I will post some recommendations for food in Athens.

Ciao and later!
