Kicking Back the Pebbles

A big girl's notes on home - cuisine - travel - life

My Darling Poros – A trip to Poros Island

July 16, 2013 - 4 Comments

As some of you may recall, we spent last September hitting the road as often as we could—pretty often, that is. One of the places we visited was the island of Poros. It was my first time there, but I instantly fell for the place. I was so in awe and exasperation and couldn’t grasp, for the life of me, why the heck we had never visited this little part of paradise, so close to Athens, before! Let me share with you some of the town’s nooks and corners and tidbits of island bliss.

Σας παραπέμπω σε έναν σουπερ-αναλυτικό τουριστικό οδηγό για τον Πόρο, στην επίσημη –και καλοστημένη!– ιστοσελίδα του δήμου & στη σελίδα της εκπληκτικής μόνιμης έκθεσης της Χατζοπουλείου Βιβλιοθήκης του Δήμου, με το όνομα “Κοχύλια & Θάλασσα.” Μην τη χάσετε! Καλά γυρίσματα. 🙂

Hi, it’s Athina!

A stalwart bookworm, English & American Literature graduate, EFL/ESOL teacher. I juggled teaching and working as an executive secretary, in a big advertising company and a law firm, for several years. I’m a freelance writer, line editor, and blogger as of lately. Also, a bit ironic by nature but, all in all, quite easy-going. Partner to 1 & mother to 3 cats. I once tried to give up coffee and then swore not to make that mistake again!

“When summer's end is nighing And skies at eve “When summer's end is nighing
 And skies at evening cloud,
I muse on change and fortune
 And all the feats I vowed
 When I was young and proud.”
—A.E. Housman, verse from 𝘟𝘟𝘟𝘐𝘟, Last Poems (1922)
