Mykonos has whitewashed cubic houses with wooden coloured doors, windows and balconies, narrow streets forming a labyrinth, beautiful churches, lovely chapels and purple bougainvillaeas contrasting with the bright white of the buildings' walls.
We will meet at a central location, walk around the houses of Little Venice that were built by wealthy merchants and ship captains in the late 18th c. and feel the strong northerly wind known as the Meltemi. Wandering along quiet cobbled alleys admiring the shadows cast by the island light, or enjoying the view as you would in any other Cycladic castle-town.
We will take snapshots of daily life, visit public squares and church courtyards, walk around the neighbourhood of Lakka, away from the high street, and do an examination of the laundry hanging out from the window and balconies. After we will move with private transfer on the beach and enjoy a Greek - Myconian Picnic.
