A friend of mine just returned from a short trip to Serifos and she was so thrilled with the natural beauty and the calmness of the island that made me remember and reminisce my older trip there. It was ages ago but I still have a lot of pictures that I haven't shared with you.
So the stage is set.
I just had my siesta, a cup of cacao is on the desk, by my side and outside is still too hot for a walk.
It is Sunday, it is August and I am dusting my archives, inviting you for a small tour around one of my favourites Greek islands.
In the first picture is the port, the first thing to see when the ferry brings you here, right below Chora, the capital of the island on the top of the hill. You'll find many amenities here but in order to get in touch with the very essence of the island, you have to go a bit further :)
I kept the chronological order in the pictures so you can have a pic of the island like I did. From one beach to the other, to taverns and chapels, all scattered around an arid but mesmerising scenery!
I am sorry if I make you dizzy, my route was far from straight, moving back and forth, in a constant race to see everything I had to see and meet everyone I had to meet.
Please bear with me :)
The capital (the tiny village in the picture below) used to be a medieval castled settlement. Maybe that's why I felt so tranquil there, wandering around and enjoying the majestic view!
And the beaches, so many and so beautiful. It was hard to decide which one was my favourite, they all looked totally amazing!
And when the heat urges you to find a shelter, a hospitable monastery is there to offer shadow and a cool place to rest!
Have a great week ahead :)This post is my contribution to #SublimeSunday inspired by @c0ff33a and #BeautifulSunday initiated by @ace108.

Very Beautiful Location and Literacy Your presentation is perfect sir.
Thank you for stopping by!
Just stunning. I don't think we ever have to 'bear with you' - we enjoy it too much.
Hey have you guys had fires over there? Someone said - I don't watch the news match but my heart immediately lept to you guys.
Thank you very much for the vote of confidence :)
Fires is on the menu every year. This one was no exception, actually it was a pretty bad one. Personally speaking, we are fine but the country was in chaos for a few weeks. Thanks for the concern :)
What a beautiful island, what crystal clear water, and what a beautiful color that sea has. I agree with you, it's a beautiful place, and the pictures are great as always.

Thank you very much, I am glad you enjoyed it :)
the white house on the hill neatly arranged very beautiful. I think there are many things that can be seen or immortalized there.
Thank you for stopping by @taqiem95 :)
It's amazing how all the different buildings are laid out on different parts of the hill.
It is quite unique indeed!
Thank you for stopping by :)
