Greece through my eyes The Photos I was photographing in Greece last few years. . . I hope you like them “We travel, some of us forever, to seek other places, other lives, other souls.”
– Anais Nin Mallorca, Balearic Islands, Spain “Traveling – it leaves you speechless, then turns you into a storyteller.” “We travel not to escape life, but for life not to escape us.”
