A simple cake brought tears to my eyes today. It was just given to me by my landlady. She said she made one and gave me these two pieces and she was then going to give another two pieces to her mother, who lives opposite the street during the summer. I put the pieces on my desk without looking at them but when I started to smell the cake it suddenly brought tears to my eyes. These simple things make me realize again and again why I love living here. The people, their kindness! Home is where the hearts are.
That is one of the really special things about the skopelithians! The warm hearts! Even if you are only a turist than stays for 14 dags you will feel it. Have been to many places and islands in Greece for over 30 years but Skopelos stands out as very special, people really cares about you! When we came back for the forth time, we were greeted by locals on the main street. It warms your heart…..
Longing to see you again….
Best regards from Stockholm

Totally understand that.
The simplest gesture can mean so much. X
