As Much As You Can

Even if you can't shape your life the way you want, at least try as much as you can not to degrade it by too much contact with the world, by too much activity and talk. Do not degrade it by dragging it along, taking it around and exposing it so often to the daily silliness of social relations and parties, until it comes to seem a boring hanger-on. Constantine P. Cavafy

Vicky's message

Hello, this is Vicky and I want to welcome you to this magic place. Porto Cheli, was love from first sight for me. I came back many times for spring, summer and fall vacations until I decided to get a house here. The spot was idyllic. The super talented architecture Yannis Kouvdos designed the house and named it Thalia! The Muse of Comedy and Poetry, for people to laugh and to have happy moments. Then the guests came, I wanted to share with them all the local tips, so the Goddess Thalia Secret Notebook was written. Food, cooking and talking about recipes was always part of Greek culture. Among gatherings, friends and dinners the Twelve Olympian Recipes were born. I really wonder what comes next… Till then let’s surrender in the absolute blue, in the golden sunsets and in the starry nights. Big kiss Vicky Villa Thalia • Porto Cheli • Greece • The love we share www.villathaliafloatingheaven.com

Who was Thalia?

Image
THALEIA (Thalia) was one of the nine Mousai (Muses), the goddesses of music, song and dance. In the Classical era, when the Mousai were assigned specific artistic and literary spheres, Thaleia was named Muse of comedy and bucolic poetry. In this guise she was portrayed with the attributes of comic mask, shepherd's staff and wreath of ivy. Her name was derived from the Greek word thaleia meaning "rich festivity" or "blooming." www. theoi.com
