GREECE, The Dance of the Seas — BARBARA ATHANASSIADIS, Travel Writer

GREECE, the Dance of the Seas is a journey to the islands of Greece: from the most western, lush Corfu, with its old grand estates in the Ionian Sea, to the easternmost tip of Europe, the jewel-like island of Kastellorizo.

A must-read book for all true lovers of Greece.

Feeling Rome — BARBARA ATHANASSIADIS, Travel Writer

Visiting a city is different than living it, breathing in the atmosphere, its surprises, discovering its details and recounting its hidden personality in an engaging and passionate way. Barbara does just that: she introduces us to Rome, the Eternal City, albeit contemplating it from a different perspective, one that is more humane but also more penetrating, revealing the secrets of the particular way of life of the Romans, masterfully balanced between their glorious past and a bright present.
