About Skala Eressou:
Skala Eressou is located in the south of the Greek island of Lesvos. It is not only well known for its wonderful sandy beach, but has also a prominent history.
Skala Eressou is the home of the ancient Greek philosopher Phanias, who was a pupil of Aristotle. The village is very famous for being the birthplace of Sappho, the legendary lyric poetess, also called the "Tenth Muse", and of Theophrastus, the father of classical botany. The historic city walls are still visible from when it was an important trading centre. Every summer, Skala Eressos attracts a large number of visitors, both Greeks and international guests. Many women make the pilgrimage to Skala Eressou to experience the birthplace of Sappho. The village offers all sorts of alternative events throughout the summertime, from tai-chi lessons on the beach to reiki, shiatsu or ayurvedic massage.

Wish I could go. (I love these colors) I use to hang out with my Greek grandma in front of her place in the Texas panhandle. Someday I’ll make it back to Greece.
