...because nature makes the best audios, don't you agree? 🎶🎵

Trending audios are occasionally great for setting the mood, but sometimes the best way to get your message across is through real, natural sound.

In this reel of Kissos, you'll hear the Pelion mountain breeze, the plashing of waves on the beach, the singing of birds, the chiming of bells... and everything else that completes a visitor's experience of this blessed place 💙

And, since nothing ever beats the real thing, after you've been given this small taste, make sure you book your holidays with us and actually live the experience through all 5 senses!

*******

Hi, if you've just found us, we're Stavros & Katerina, teachers and owners of a beautiful villa on Mount Pelion, Greece.

Let us be your hosts and help you experience your best vacations in Greece!!

Meet our enchanted forest!! 🪵🌿🧚‍♀️

Last Sunday, we woke up at the villa and the view was breathtaking...
I had to try and capture a little bit of magic to give you a taste ☺️

Honestly, if a fairy or a goblin had popped up from behind a tree, I wouldn't have been one bit surprised! 🧚‍♀️

Winter Pelion is all about the magic... 🪄✨️

Brooks💧, mist, holly trees, spooky trees 🪵😄, ivy 🌿, mushrooms🍄 ...

(All photos and videos were taken just outside the villa yard. It's like you literally take one step outside and you're in the forest 🙂🌳)

👉 Would you enjoy a Sunday morning walk in the woods, and afterwards some hot chocolate, while snuggling on the sofa by the fireplace ? 🔥 ☕️

Have you ever tasted a during a visit to Greece? If you have, you know that sweet, crisp, and juicy apple deliciousness 🍎😍
If you haven't, you really should put in on your list of things to do during your holidays in Pelion! 💯

Why? Well, because (the famous apples of Zagora, which is the largest village in Pelion) are No1🥇 in the world!! 🙌
This is based on the TasteAtlas list of the 10 best apple varieties in the 🌎 for 2024.
Firiki Piliou, another well-known variety found in South Pelion, is also on the list!! Two Greek varieties, both coming from Pelion!!

Of course, there's a reason... and that is the fact that Pelion has the perfect, unique micro-climate and weather conditions for apple cultivation!💧🌊

Frequent rainfalls and the sea breeze that keeps the fertile soil moist are behind this incredible success, as are the strict european guidelines that are religiously followed.

Nothing would have happened, of course, if it hadn't been for the hard-working people of Zagora, Pouri, and Makrirachi (again, the beautiful village you see in our view photos 😍)

These people managed to make Zagorin a brand known to the four corners of the world, something that makes us really proud!! If you live outside Greece, you may have come across the Zagorin brand 🍎🇬🇷

Apples are dominant in the local gastronomy, as they are used in various forms, from jams and syrupy deserts to apple pies, apple syrup (molasses) in salads at local restaurants, and more!!

As our guests, when it's their season, we'll welcome you with a few of these delicious apples, as well as some apple/apple-orange juice manufactured locally, to experience the taste yourself🥃

One more reason to visit Pelion in 2025! 😉🍎⛰️

Just a reminder of what Pelion, Kissos, and Dream Deferred villa will look like in a few weeks... 🎄🎅

If you ask us, we can't wait! 😍

Είναι δύσκολο να επιλέξεις αγαπημένη εποχή στο Πήλιο... αν έπρεπε όμως, ποια θα επέλεγες;

Which Pelion season would you choose?

30/08/2024

This is from a live we did earlier today on instagram. It's at Papa Nero Beach, in Pelion. It's a beautiful beach, (although I don't know how much of its beauty you can see here, the reception was pretty bad)
Here we're giving you some info in case you want to visit it sometime in the future. It's less than 15 minutes from A Dream Deferred, and it's right next to Agios Ioannis beach, a really famous place in Pelion. Have you ever been here? Would you visit? Tell us below!! 😘

"Secret school" in Pelion, Greece ...?🤔
What is that?

It might seem strange now, but back when Greece was under the Ottoman rule, there were long periods during the almost 400-year-occupation when Greeks were not allowed to learn how to read and write in their language.📚

But the Greeks were too stubborn to obey the Turks. During those times, priests or monks would secretly act as teachers, and chapels, dark basements or even caves became the schools where Greeks learned how to read and write.🕯📖

One such school was the Κρυφό Σχολειό - Kryfo Scholio (Secret School), which you'll find between Fakistra and Damouchari. It is actually a cave, right at the edge of the rocky coastline, high above sea level. 🪨🌊

There, from the year 1668 lived an old monk, a hermit, all by himself, who taught the children of Tsangarada how to read and write. You can still see the remains of his small hermitage. His only company was an icon of Παναγία Μεγαλομάτα (Madonna of large eyes). When the children came, he would place a wooden plank on the rocks, to serve as a bridge, since the spot was otherwise detached from the outside world.

But, eventually, the secret reached pirates' ears...🏴‍☠️ they sailed to the cove and climbed up, expecting to find treasures. When they found nothing, they got furious and killed the poor, old monk... ☠️
Next to his cave, you'll find the church called "Madonna of large eyes", which is another tiny cave with a wooden door. 💒 The icon of Virgin Mary that kept the monk company, is now in Tsangarada.

For those of you wishing to visit, the path becomes steep and rocky, so make sure you wear hiking shoes. 👟👟 The view, however, will definitely make up for the difficult descent.

Greek summer... in April⁉️

Well, yes! This year, summer has arrived earlier than usual, which means that the summer season is starting earlier as well... 😎

Pelion beaches are already being frequented by swimmers taking their first dip and basking in the sun 🌞⛱️

So, for those of you planning an early, off-season getaway, this is your chance to enjoy Pelion in all its spring glory, with nature awakening and flowers filling the mountain with those beautiful spring hues...🪻🍀🌷
.. and then enjoy a rejuvenating swim in its gorgeous emerald waters... 🌊🏊‍♀️
..and, at an off-season price!!💰

    ‼️Bonus‼️☝️
Greek Orthodox Easter falls on 5th May this year, which means that if you book your stay in May, you'll be able to enjoy Greek Easter in the traditional Pelion way! It's no wonder Pelion has always been favoured by the Greeks during their Easter vacations... it's THE Eastery place to be ! 🪺🐰💒🐣

Are you the off-season kind of traveller?
