Το ξες ότι λατρεύω την επικοινωνία με τους ανθρώπους και την δια βίου μάθηση. Γι αυτό σε παίρνω και σε βγάζω από το σπίτι να πάμε στα Μετέωρα, στο Σέιχ Σου και στον Χορτιάτη για να νιώσεις αυτά για τα οποία διαβάζεις, να ζήσεις αυτά που βλέπεις στην ΤιΒί, να φοβηθείς σε ασφαλές περιβάλλον, ώστε να ξεπεράσεις τους φόβους σου και να εκπλαγείς με τον εαυτό σου. Σε μικρές ομαδούλες για να έχω άμεση επαφή με όλους/ες και γιατί πιστεύω τόσο πολύ στην δύναμη της ομάδας.

Donald is a former University Professor who started writting poems after his retirement. He visited Greece to study the language, learn the culture and travel more. His poems are all about his wife and his journeys around the world, so when he visited Greece he got inspired and wrote some more poems. With Dan I made 2 tours and that is because I met him only some days before he leaves Greece to continue his journey. We visited the ancient city of Dion and the Mt. Hortiatis together. (more…)
