  • Land of the Rising Sun

    If you could live anywhere in the world, where would it be? Well, I’m Greek, but I was born and grew up in Germany. In my mid-20s, I decided to move to Greece, so I did. However, after many years, I returned to Germany, but the stay was only short.…

  • Forever Mine

    When you look at me, all my miseries fade away. When you smile at me, life becomes a harmonious movie. When you say my name, angels, floating around me, singing a spellbinding tune. It’s you -my heaven on earth- being my anchor to my happy ending in life. ©2025, Vasiliki…
