After many years in Athens I decided to move in the small village of Katichori (500m altitude, Pelion mountain, 10km/15min from Volos city) which is a really big change in my lifestyle.
I'm away from city's noise, much closer to nature but still very close to Volos to catch-up with cultural events. I love Pelion mountain, the sea, scubadiving and photography.
