Dad, Tell Me a Story...

About the Book

The writer invites you to get aboard the tomotris express, find a window seat, become comfortable and be prepared to take a journey back in time. You will be traveling to fantastic and simple places, on a journey promising you excitement, adventure, mystery and natural wonder.

Fasten your seat belt, because you will be shaken up by earthquakes, ride down the rough turbulent waters of the Alfios River, hike on the colorful countryside, produce sweet raisins, attend a panygiri and hear the Sunday church bells. You will make your own potent wine, celebrate a traditional Easter and Christmas, fly a kite on Kathara Deftera, and sample some of the most wonderful foods and desserts on this side of the planet. If you have time, you will attend the one room schoolhouse, meet a brave teacher, stop at the inviting kafenio for some Greek coffee, and taste the refreshing cool water of the Kato Vrisi.

Sit back, relax, close your eyes, sharpen your senses, and be prepared for a thrilling and wonderful journey with destinations to Iralklia and Alfiousa.

Kalo Taxidi!
