This was a LE-GEN-DA-RY and very special jump (-ing) for our dear friend Roland π¦πΉ 40th birthday party! π€©π We have been friends with Roland and his wife Tish π¨π©πΏπ¦ for many years, since our time living in South Africa. There were friends joining from all around the world! There were those travelling from South Africa πΏπ¦ (Cat, Ryan, Serge, Filo, Sandra πΏπ¦π¨π©, Dimitri π¬π·, Leana), from the US (Danny) πΊπΈ, from France (Marta π΅πΉ, Huguette, David, Mathilda πΏπ¦π΅πΉ, Nadine, Manuella, Sifa, BarakaπΏπ¦π¨π©) π«π·, plus some local friends from #Galatopia π We had spent fabulous two weeks together enjoying our beautiful local area and this party was a culmination of it all. Long to be remembered! π₯³ Repeat at 50, right?! ππ₯°#livebiofamily #livebio #slowtravel #uniquestays #Peloponnese #Greece #Poros #belonganywhere
Meet the new member of the #livebiofamily π»! His name is Filemon (Filimonas in Greek which basically means loving and lovable π₯°) He just looooves cuddles and tummy scratches π Hatulka is having a bit of a hard time befriending him, but he is not giving up and follows her EVERYWHERE all the time π Ok fair enough, might be a bit intense, donβt blame her for wanting some space π Things are getting better though everyday, we even caught them snuggling together in the same kitty bed #livebio #kittycat #kittylove #greekcat #catsofgreece #Poros
Itβs time to close another season at Live Bio π Can you believe it was our 10th?! π² This moment always brings bittersweet feelings - on the one hand we look forward to slowing down, on the other we know we are going to miss all the amazing people who visited us and the moments we shared together π Thank you everyone who has visited us this year! And to the rest of you, we look forward to seeing you in the near future! π€ #endofseason #livebio #slowtravel #uniquestays #greece #poros #visitgreece
Devilβs Bridge, great place for a day excursion with (or without) kids, especially in the heat of summer when you crave to cool off. Temperature is always a bit lower here and cold mountain water very refreshing βοΈπ¦π³Add it to your list of things to do while staying with us π#travelwell #greece_is_awesome #discovergreece #slowtravel #peloponnese
Havenβt had so much fun as we did last week thanks to the Crazy Turtles π’π’π’π’ and their festival of joy ππΊπ»β¨πͺ© 160 people travelled from all around Europe (and a few even beyond!) to stay in #Poros and greater #Galatopia and enjoy super cool parties in the areaβs best locations! Thank you for bringing such a cool crowd to our beloved area! And for all the fun π€© We hope next time next year π₯°
Have you done #winetasting π·in the Ancient #Nemea region yet? Itβs one of the experiences we highly recommend while staying with us (or in our region βΊοΈ). Nemea is the oldest, continuously wine making region in the world (about 3000 years and counting π). It has some unique indigenous varieties like Agiorgitiko (Saint George) and Moschofilero (which tastes like flowers πΊπΌπΈ) - both of protected origin. Some wine makers are also bringing back some old varieties (Kidonitsa) and making some really interesting things with it (eg. using wild yeast for fermentation).There are more than 50 wine farms in the area, but we have our top 3 or 4 that we usually recommend going to. Wine tasting always needs to be pre-booked so if you are keen to dive deep into some really good Greek wines, let us know and we can book it for you βΊοΈ
Just a little Timelapse of #Poros town from the β΅οΈπ
Whoever has been to #Odyssey knows it is just a magical experience, especially for your taste buds πWeβve had endless dinners there over the years and yet each time we are surprised with the creativity of the Odyssey team! Every time there are some new flavours to discover π And everything is made from seasonal, local ingredients including veggies and fruit from the Odyssey farm π«πΆοΈπ₯π₯¬ππ
ππHonestly, Odyssey tasting menu is not to be missed while you are here! And if you want to learn some of those recipes, do one of their cooking classes π§βπ³(Ask us to make arrangements for you)#greekfood #greekgourmet
