The beauty of Greece

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 Cavafy (1863-1933)

Translated by Edmund Keeley

and Philip Sherrard

Πήλιο. Mt. Pelion

Χωρίς υπερβολή, ένα από τα ωραιότερα ηλιοβασιλέματα στην Ελλάδα.

Οι ώρες για αγνάντεμα είναι ατελείωτες στην παραλία της Μηλίνας  με

τη γενναιόδωρη θέα ίσια στο πορφυρό της λιόγερμα.

Milina

It has, without exaggeration, one of the most beautiful sunsets in Greece.

There is plenty of time to scan the horizon sitting on the beach of Milina

with the generous view of its red sunset.

Milina

In Milina kann man die wohl schönsten Sonnenuntergänge Griechenlands

erleben. Hier kann man dieses schöne Schauspiel Abend für Abend solange

es währt betrachten.

Milina is a small village on the south/west side of Mt. Pelion..
