We offer joy and support to families and children in need, supporting the campaign of the Foundation Annousakeio. This humanitarian and social action is supported by the sports and cultural associations of our city, whose members will start from Eleftheriou Venizelos Square at 19.00 with their lanterns, for a beautiful Christmas Walk of Love.

Lydia

I'm Austrian living in Tavronitis, love nature, music, good books, sunsets, the sea, travelling, socializing and more. I came to Crete as a student in the early 70s, exploring the west and southwest of the island with friends by motorbike. When you are young everything is important and, there are lots of things to do...I did. Job, family,children, travelling the world. But I never lost my love for Crete for a minute. And nine years ago I ended up in this convenient corner of Crete, not only for holidays, but to stay and haven't regretted it for a minute.
