Sunlight and Sadness, A Weekend Walk
By Pinjing in Daily Life, Photo PostNothing like a walk by the pier to clear one’s head. Sorry that I have been missing for the past few months, but life has been a bit crazy around here. My aunt passed away on Saturday morning, so my Dad and I decided to take a walk to help us lift our spirits a [...]
Day 9: Last Day In Athens (Digital and Film)
By Pinjing in Greece, Photo PostAfter our few days in paradise on Mykonos, we headed back to Athens were we had one last day of sightseeing before heading back home: We decided to start with the changing of the guards at the Parliament Building (near Syntagma Metro Station).

The windmills of Mykonos. [...]

Ornos Beach in Mykonos, about a 5 minute [...]
Day 5: Lunch and a Return to Athens (digital and film)
By Pinjing in Greece, Photo PostBefore leaving Kalambaka for the long trip back to Athens, we had lunch at this charming restaurant. Upon entering, you’re led into the open kitchen, where “grandma” would show you what the family had prepared that day: pots and pans of homestyle Greek family dishes. You’d hand them a plate and they’d load it up [...]
