crappy cell phone pictures :: heraklion

last thursday night, i jumped on a large boat and got myself to heraklion to attend the pecha kucha event.
it was real fun and a great experience. i did bring my camera with me, but only used it to have an imatiothiki session. so i just collected a few interesting images from my crappy cell phone album to share with you.
i love love love swimming pools in boats. why? they are never filled with water and there's some sort of melancholy attached to them. they are creepy. that's what i am trying to say.
apart from the creepy swimming pool, the boat had a playroom for kids, which could have been chucky's headquarters. yes, it's filled with colors, but it was so empty and cold.

the hotel was a happy and shinny place.
 


suicide rocks.
and a seriously delicious cookie which is the official mascot of this year's pecha kucha and the star of next week's imatiothiki session.

then i got myself back on the boat and travelled to athens.


first song i played on my computer when i stepped home was this one.

the treadmill, i despise



the first serifos sunset race will be held in about three weeks.
i have been running on the treadmill almost every day, trying to get my body in shape.
sometimes i feel like a guinea pig, when i'm at the gym.
i keep running next to people who are also running and everybody's starring blankly at the tv.
it sucks.
but when i cross the finish line by the beach, it will be worth the guinea pig experience.
i presume.

on missing serifos and not posting about it






i started writing on how i miss serifos. 
then i decided i would turn this into an anti-missing summer post.
but now i feel like i have nothing to share.
apart from this song
this week is going to be a good week.
and a blessed one.

this post is dedicated to fifis. for overcoming her fear of heights and steep slopes.

serifos: the early morning hours














we managed to wake up early.
we made it in time to enter the monastery.
it looked nice. but slightly abandoned. i am not a supporter of such places.
i don't believe retrieving from the world will make it a batter place. and i hardly believe it can make you a better man. 
but everybody's free to indulge in solitude. and loukoumi sweets that last for ever (and ever).


this song is for my friend eleni, who made my day a whole lot brighter!

all images were taken at μονη ταξιαρχων serifos
