Lukas // Keramikos
„Sorry my english is not so good. Actually I am very happy right now, because I received a scholarship for my studies. I am making a PhD in Civil Engineering. I would tell you the title of my research but I think, you probably wouldn’t even understand it. It’s too complicated!“

Maria-Xristina & Manousos, Kypseli
„Can I take a picture of you?“ „Do you want me to smile?“ „Whatever you want.“ „Because I don’t want it with a smile.“ I am taking the first picture of her, then, from behind, another person comes into the picture. I take the second picture, in which she smiles. „Are you two together?“ „Doesn’t it show?“ „Actually yes. Where have you met.“ „Do you know Bolivar? It’s a beach bar in Alimos. That’s where we met. He’s from Crete and I am from Cyprus.“ „Tell me a little bit about
