Everything about Agia Roumeli

Agia Roumeli is a very special and unique place.Situated at the Southern coast of Crete at the exit of the Samaria Gorge. Agia Roumeli is a small village with 120 permanent residents.It surrounded by wild mountains and a long beach of fine pebble by the clear Libyan sea.The village is remote and a little isolated. You can only reach it on foot or by boat.There is no road.

A few lucky visitors have discovered that Agia Roumeli is a superb place to spend their holidays in and they tend to return again and again.In Agia Roumeli and its surroundings you can relax, you almost forget it exists.Agia Roumeli has no nightlife, no cinemas and no entertainment. However anyone who can relate to nature can find plenty to do.

At a distance of one hour’s walking, following the path, there is the Byzantine monastery of Agios Pavlos at the homonymous beach.This is the spot where St. Paul is said to have landed on Crete on his voyage to Greece. Further on, this path takes you to the beach of Marmara, the village of Loutro and eventually Hora Sfakion which is about 7 hours walk from Agia Roumeli. You can then take one of the frequent boats back to Agia Roumeli.With the mountains so close you might also want to walk up to the two ruined castles, situated on the nearest western hillside of the village. The view from the castles is superb.Last but not least, you will want to have a look at the gorge of Samaria. It is not difficult to walk upwards from Agia Roumeli and if you go in the early morning you will have this beautiful gorge almost to yourself.


The location is perfect for unwinding, forgetting the cares of the world and indulging in the drinking of the local wines, notably tsikoudia, and eating the local cuisine for which the island is famous. This is not a destination for the sophisticated tourist, but more for the discerning traveller looking for a laidback, and unforgettable expirience.

Holiday in Paris

If I had a choice of a country to holiday in, I would like it to be Paris. Paris is one of the most spectacular cities in the world containing a wealth of history and culture. With countless Art Galleries, scores of top museums and stunning historical monuments there is something to please every visitor. If I was there, I would like to visit the Louvre Museum because it is unquestionably one of the finest museums in the world.


To walk through the Louvre Museum is to walk through the history of France and into the minds of kings and revolutionaries. Moreover, I would like to visit the Versailles by bike because it is so massive, so this is the only way to see them.Finally I would like to visit the Eiffel Tower. I can imagine what you can see from the top of tower. I think almost all Paris. For all these reasons I would like to go to Paris.

MY BEST CLASSROOM EXPERIENCE

My best classroom experience began about two years ago. It was when I decided to use a computer to practise English. I thoroughly enjoyed my time in the computer lab and learnt a great deal. I felt like a little child who takes a gift and everything was very interesting for me.But sincerely,what I felt is nothing compared to how I feel now!

Everything started when my teacher Christina suggested I should have a blog. It was a great idea! She is highly experienced with the Net with proven IT skills, so she took the initiative to show me this magic world.

She co-ordinates everything and motivates me to achieve my objectives. It's fantastic that now I can communicate with different people all over the world and get across my ideas. She broadens my horizons and I would like to tell her thank you for everything and also that I am willing to do everything it takes so that she takes pride in me.

WHAT DO YOU FEEL CHILDREN SHOULD AND SHOULDN'T BE ALLOWED TO DO.

Nowadays there are many experts about parenting in childcare who confuse parents about what they are supposed to do.So they feel desperate because of all these commandments and they usually make mistakes.

I have read many books of different psychologists who propuse what we have to do about our children's behaviour.I respect their opinon but it's very difficult to follow always their advice because every child has her/his unique character and personality.

Every parent knows better than others what is best for their child.I have formed an opinion about how to bring up my children which I have applied with succes until now.Here are my seven commandments:

1) They should do their homework and they must study their lessons every time.

2) They mustn't eat junk food because it is harmful to their health.

3) They ougth to go to bed before 10 o'clock p.m.

4) They should have free time to do anything they want, because in this way they relieve stress and they respond better to their responsibilities.

5) They ought to do odd jobs in the house because they learn to work as a team and they become more responsible and independent.

6) They need to have some time every day to play, especially little children because building up their personality is the most important thing for them.

7) In the end I believe that they must grow up knowing that there are limits in everything but with lots of love and affection too.

So they will have a balanced life and many values by doing all these and I thing it's worth devoting our selves to them bacause our children are the future.

Love at first sight


It was a man Mark who lived in Spain in a small beautiful village. He was very lonely and isolated so every day in the afternoon he went for a walk in the main street of the village where there were many shops.

One day he decided to buy a cat or a dog from a pet shop because he wanted to have a company. As soon as he got in the shop he didn't know what was going happen to him. First he looked around the place looking for the pet which he wanted to buy. Next he advanced toward the shop assistant to help him with what he wanted to buy. While he was looking at her he was feeling his heart beating very loudly. He fell in love with her at first sight. But the assistant Maria felt the same about him too. They took to each other immediately.

So after that they were living together in a small house with happiness and passion in the begging but after a while they didn't get on well because of different financial problems probably.They didn't get over their problems and they fell out every day so Maria left the house desperate by this situation.

At that time Mark won the lottery and he was very happy about it. At once he bought a mansion and many animals and he thought that he reached Maria's expectations so it was the big break to made up again.
