 Hi Tony. Went to your site. Your thanks to Sir Tim Berners Lee are most welcome - especially as he is my wife's 2nd Cousin - and as a family we are obviously immensely proud of him. My wife's Father (his Uncle) bought a computer last week and went on the internet for the first time - at the tender age of 90 and coped as well as many of us "youngsters" - must be in the blood.

 Hi, Tony! My name is Nora. I am from Riga, Latvia. Today to happen upon your web site, and understood, that I am not alone in this world!!!!!! The same feelings, same memories. Incredibly! I promise to carefully read every line in your site. Your photos are like my soul. In last three years I visited Creta and Santorini, and it seems to me that in my previous life I was a Greek. I really want to live in Greece, my dreamland. And your site is like guide book for me.

Thank you Tony for your heartfelt and beautifully expressed story about walking the Samaria Gorge.

You really have communicated the blissful silence, the imposing rock walls, the ancient feeling and the perspective one gains from sitting quietly and absorbing the place.

We felt your wonder and your appreciation of even the tiniest things as well as the awesome huge structures, and we felt your relief and bliss at plunging into the sea at the end of the journey! Thanks for all your photos too, much appreciated.

Just finished reading Pani's Island and I loved it. It is very Katzantzankis in style, full of poetry, feeling, humour - but why hasn't it been published? I would love to see your book properly published. Very best wishes, Lorri

Hello Tony I just came across your website and it was a pleasant suprise! (only complaint: the tiny space to type in a comment!) Very interesting musings... I have not tried Zorbas in Sitia - I make a mental note to go next time! By the way, your site visitors may find useful our www.cretetravel.com website, which we created with a lot of legwork & love for Crete. Feel free to link to it. be well, Lina of Crete Travel

 Hello Sir, I am from Kritsa. I've been living in Helsinki, Finland for a while. It is only today I discovered your site and read about Kritsa almost crying. I can't wait to go back to my paradise. Thank you for loving my place! And I think the pictures were great. I wish they were even more. I even saw people I know in them. I talked to some friends already and my girlfriend who is another 'grecofile' talked to her friends in her travelling forum about your site. If you come to Kritsa don't hesitate to call me for a coffee at Sareidakis. I don't know for how long I'll stay here in Finland but I will certainly be at Kritsa in the summer because of my job. Michael Pagkalos 

PS: Will you go back there again? I think you will!
