Description My www.facebook.com/pages/Christi…


We all have a favorite place on earth...Cyclades is my favorite place as i have spent countless summer holidays in these amazing islands  free diving in such incredible blue waters. The specific sunset view is located in Santorini island, a place for romantics.
If you dont feel romantic, dont visit it.

... i thought you knew....
well. In case you dont i ll share the info^^
Greek islands are populated by a percentage by Greeks. (the key word here my friend is "by a percentage" ) All the years i am visiting our islands for summer vacations  (imagine i should be crazy to live here and NOT to visit at least one or two every year, right?) and by now i must admit i have been to the most of them. ANd guess what i have seen in almost every island i have been? Whole neighborhoods populated by foreigners. Dutch, Englishmen,Germans, Sweden, you name it. I am guessing they all had the same dream, a house next to the sea, to wake up every morning and watch the incredible crystal clear blue waters reflecting the sun, to smell  the salt and the rocks,to feel the blessed cool breeze on their skin.
The only reason i didnt wish for that is because i could (and i had) have that every year during summer.

But i will admit, i have thought of it too.

Well, I never been in Greek or the Mediterranean area. I think I quite understand what you mean We have a little bit of the same problem in old small villages along some parts of the Swedish coast, where the inhabitants were poor Swedish fishermen. Now rich people from mostly our capital have bought a big amount of there houses and risen the prises of them so the original people have no chance to remain in them. Moreover those villages are almost unoccupied during non tourist seasons, causing, and the people living there during tourist seasons don't pay any taxes there, but yet require infra structure ..

Τα χρώματα των νησιών μας είναι ανεπανάληπτα και σπάνια να τα συναντήσεις αλλού. Είναι έντονα και δυνατά με κυρίαρχο το γαλάζιο. Στη Σαντορίνη αυτό το κατάφερες μια χαρά. Μπράβο σου

Wow! Those houses in the foreground are simply stunning! Very well done! The background though seems to be a bit off perspective. But anyway it looks great.

Beautiful place, stunning colours, amazingly drawn buildings... You hang this picture on the wall and it brights up the place instantly. I just miss a bit more detail on the water, maybe a few definite waves, well, I don't know. 

It looks amazing annyway though so it's not a big deal
