The best way to experience the essence of Greece is to tread off the beaten path, with a receptive frame of mind. Be ready for the messages carried by the salty fragrance of the Aegean breeze, seek out the lonely, minuscule shrine on the remote mountain-side, accept the invitation for a simple meal under the olive tree by the friendly elderly peasant couple. Be ready to toil on the rocky, lofty mountain range but also to wander on the thyme-covered, beckoning hillock. Wake up early so as not to miss the rising sun reflected on our sea, its waves and ripples shining back the light and playfully synthesising a zillion small dawns which will light your mind.As a Brit living in Greece for many decades, I have been travelling all over this magnificent country with my cameras and drone, trying to capture the very essence of its scintillating Nature and its rich history.
