Vivian & Desiree are your philoxenia hosts. First Sunday every month free gathering with a Greek expert in Paralio Astros. πŸ’™πŸ‡¬πŸ‡· About Vivian: I own a boutique hotel in the charming Greek village Paralio Astros, Arcadia, Peloponnese. I have been the president of several tourist associations and love to help people and nature stay healthy. I'm a receiving travel agency for Arcadia and collaborate with other small and trusted entrepreneurs in our area. Hiking groups, nature organisations, cultural unions, wine makers, olive farmers, social cooperatives, and more. About Dee: I'm a writer and co-founder of an sciences/economic thinktank for healthy rural/city areas. LinkedIn is for my professional presence and education work. Since I'm Vivian's neighbor, we came up with a plan in 2023 to make Peloponnese into a Blue Zone, attractive for off-season visitors and stayers. 1 in 3 people living to become 100+ without chronic diseases. Initiating projects to restore sea and mountains, restore freshwater to the peninsula, prevent wildfires, and give small Greek entrepreneurs a year-round income, and write write write. My Facebook presence is focused on creative writing and just being me.

This is how it all started in 2023. Solo traveler, science writer and designer Desiree Driesenaar met Vivian Manolesou, president of Kynouria Hosts.100s of solotravelers followed. The hotel focused on long stay in the off-season for monthly rates without AFM-need so the win-win-win was easily calculated. Solotravelers have a place to stay and community. The hotel is 12 months busy and bustling with digital nomads, remote workers, pensioners, yoga-lovers, culture seekers, Greek food bloggers, and dancers.

PELOPONNESE FOR THE BLIND

Peloponnese Living is now 3 years old. And we are stepping up a notch. The first 3 years were all about inclusivity and diversity and integration into Peloponnese Way of Life. Making longstay in the off-season affordable with monthly rates.

Now, we get different requests. A few weeks ago, one of the hotels in Paralio Astros - Enalion Beach Hotel - received a large group of blind children with their parents. They have braille menus, an elevator, and have had long discussions about how to make their stay even more comfortable.

We are mighty proud of our partners! πŸ’™πŸ‡¬πŸ‡·

Please, feel very welcome to contact them. Enalionhotel.gr The Karagiannis Team will welcome you with a red carpet or yellow lines.

Greece is not only Olympics, but also Paralympics. Participating is more important than winning.

The picture is of a blind American person being guided by another. We met them on the Nafplio walkway. The Arcadian Coast also has many slides into the sea for people in wheelchairs. Leave it up to the Greeks to make philoxenia work for all.

Warm regards,
The PL Team

TOMORROW SEPT 6 - PELOPONNESE LIVING

We host our monthly Greek-International gathering again tomorrow, Sept 6. 12-3pm in Castle View Studios Paralio Astros. On the beautiful Arcadian Coast. Welcome! Our members use the hill with the lighthouse and the castle often to watch a sunrise, go tortoise spotting, and herb smelling.

If you stay for a few days or longer - we are an off-season longstay group - you can visit Moustos Healing Well. The spring full of minerals where the locals dip in for healing. You can visit Koutroufa with the 2,500 years old olive tree.

You can distill your own drinks with wild almonds from the hill and make fragrant herb oils to the recipe of Mr. Simos. Used in sommelier quality w**es and beers, perfumes, and aroma therapy.

Tomorrow, we have a Greek guest from Natura 2000 who will tell us all about flora and fauna.

FEEL WELCOME!
FREE OF CHARGE, NO ENTRANCE FEE.

Community gathering. Comparing notes, finding friends, sharing the joy of Peloponnese Living Language is English, with some Greek. But we mostly have 10-15 nationalities in the group. Diversity and inclusivity is our middle name.

Autumn is the best season for a swim. With hat or without. Have you already been in Moustos Healing Well? Or have you noticed the freshwater springs in the sea shipping the Arcadian Coast line? Fascinating places in Peloponnesos.

Full of hidden gems.

Thanks! πŸ₯°πŸ₯°πŸ₯°πŸ‡¬πŸ‡·πŸ‡¬πŸ‡·πŸ‡¬πŸ‡·

TIME FOR WILD PARTY IS ALSO...
..preparations and afterwards cleaning up. Luckily, in our Greek-International bridging groups the Greeks of Kynouria Hosts are supported by Greeks and Peloponnese Living internationals from many nationalities. Many hands make light work...
And... as ever... Vivian Manolesou - president of a tourist organization with a vision for the off season filling of accommodations with affordable monthly rates - is in the middle of it all.

WE ARE HAVING FUUUUUUUNNNN in Greece.

AUGUST 28 - FREE SITES - FULL MOON CELEBRATION

Do you know that Greece has a tradition of full moon celebrations? And that next Friday - August 28 - many archeological sites and museums open their doors for free? It's become a lovely Greek Summer tradition.

We heard in the grapevines that some of our members will go and celebrate in their own wonderful Greek-International Fusion way.

They will go to different places in different groups and constellations and we hope you will post your explorations and findings with us for others to be inspired too. Feel free to post about your wandering and wondering in our beautiful, mythical peninsula. πŸ’™πŸŒ€πŸ‡¬πŸ‡·

The photos are credited to the members of our community. Taken during the eclipse. Up in the mountains of Arcadia, there's a stargazing center too. Big telescopes and radars to "hear the universe whisper"... Explore Peloponnese sometimes takes a group up on request to help foreigners experience and tell mythical Greek history stories.

Enjoy Peloponnese!

Someone just asked in this group how normal it is to get decaf special coffees in Greece. This is what you might encounter. But... It's rather normal in most places... πŸ’—πŸ‡¬πŸ‡·
