South central Crete

We're still in the south central part of Crete, in the village called Tsoutsouru πŸ™‚( easy to remember).There are several roads to get here, all with breathtaking (literally 🀣)hairpin turns.
We've spoke to the Taverna Zorba owner ,( we had to go there as it was our friends Amelia's birthday so we've promised her we will celebrate it, otherwise obviously we wouldn't πŸ˜‰)
and he said that summer is busy enough but not hectic, so if anyone of you needs a holiday far away from all the noise with not so many tourists south Crete is the place( make sure to rent 4x4).
Not far away by foot (30 min trail but 40 min by car because you have to go up the hill and than go down), there's a little village called Ag.Panteleimon.
On our way there we've met a new born baby goat with her mamma.

No tourists, just some local shepherds watching over their herd.
We've proceeded to Agiou Nikita Monastery ( there's a lot of them and little chapels spread in secluded, beautiful locations). 

We've only met the guardian, couldn't communicate, damn  internet and damn us that we don't speak Greek!We didn't see anyone else so not sure if there are any monks living there permanently.

It was a very windy day yesterday so after the monastery decided to go back home.Today the weather is fantastic,sunny with a little breeze so I will be spending my day in the sun waiting for Franco coming back from fishing.
Did some basic laundry today, see if we can manage more than one month without going to the laundry matπŸ€”πŸ˜œ
