Oh Josh that was beautiful. So full of your love for the country and your time with people. Definitely full of your voice. I have so enjoyed reading about your time here. Thank you so much for taking the time (slower travel slower writing = great) to share these moments with the Substack community. And thank you for the kindness in your messages. I will just as eagerly look for your posts from other parts of the world, even sanitised Switzerland, but most of all I hope we one day meet for καφεδάκι.
Σας ευχαριστώ Rowena… such generous words from a journalist whose well-travelled writings and life journey I admire. I was saying to my significant other this morning over coffee and Πασχαλινά κουλουράκια how this chapter has required my biggest writing pants so far… we’ve loved every moment of it.
So well written Josh . You’ve made some real connections with the people & the land . Some incredible photography Josh ,and I trust the couple of photos of your Papou( my father) that I sent have contributed to our family history.
Thanks Maria for joining with me in this exploration of our family’s journey, and for taking the time to share photos, most appreciated. Bringing these stories together, I hope has brought the family a little closer together. And learning that Eleni in Potamos is ensuring our stories continue to be told, is extra special. Here’s to what lies ahead. 🇬🇷
Wonderful Josh as ever. Perhaps your idea of a get together in Kythira would be a lot of fun [ if we are still around ] Take care and enjoy the next experience. Love Dad and Lizzie XXX
A Covid wedding that never quite happened, perhaps a milestone birthday? Maybe we don’t even need a reason to make this ‘big Greek bash’ get together happen. Love that the seed is planted… 💙

😂 thanks Lex! I’m looking forward to what lies ahead… might be the perfect time to book your around the world ticket.

Oh dear I'm sad you're departing Kythera. So beautiful and I've loved
