To remember Salamina Island and this beautiful home, I collected some herbs to take with me: oregano, rosemary, sage and lavender. I've dried them and packed them into zip lock bags to preserve their scent.

Being
in Greece feeds my soul. My eyes are filling with new sights. My nose is
full of the scent of the sea as well as aromas of lavender, sage, rosemary and oregano. My hands
touch plants and dogs and stones. My ears are full of the sound of
the sea, goat bells (and dogs barking – can't win them all) and my
taste buds are enjoying new tea and good food.
