The Gyros Pita Man and the best dessert in the world



one of the best things about the med is the food. it's always amazing.
especially for somebody like me who snacks a lot.
yes, i eat A LOT!

Greece thrives a lot from farming, especially Paros.
I never go wrong with any munchies here in Greece.

The Gyros Pita is a staple. a 2.50euro goodness of meat, fries, onion, tomatoes and tzatziki.
Different places have different ways of making Gyros pita, we try to take time to go to different places with this amazing Greek Staple.



----
Frozen Yogurt and Homemade Ice cream
are few of the famous greek desserts but
The Best desert in the WORLD
is the traditional Loucoumades.
it's fried dough balls smothered with warm merenda (greek nutella)
or honey and cinnamon
topped with your choice of ice cream,
need i say more?

it's orgasmic. I LOVE Loucoumades!!!!






if you observe the guy who makes the Gyros pita ( The Pita man ), he is very passionate about it, so i took some photos, this was from the gyros pita place in Lefkas, a town situated in the hills of Paros.

Also there are exceptional Pita Men, who gets annoyed when you ask to change something in your gyro, like extra tzatziki. it's kind of like a big no no.
haha, it took me a while to get it, no asking for extra tzatziki.LOL





Aside from the sweets, the fruits here are to die for.Our house is actually a watermelon farm, so when the owner comes in every once in a while to pick out the ripe ones, he would give us a few of these delish watermelons. XO

Goofing around with my GoPro on a no wind day, eating frozen watermelon in our porch.
wiiii!

Paros by Night

Paros is lovely during the day 
and it's lovelier at night.
here are some snaps from a night out in Naoussa.
Naoussa is a small town here in Paros where all the restaurants and bars are located.
My greek friends told me that when Greece was having problems with piracy during the older days they came to Paros via the Naoussa port.

I also love going to Naoussa for the best Loucoumades in town, the best dessert in the world.










 



Naoussa is known for the Parties but Paros is known for the chill out and relaxed life
here is what i see outside our house.
I took this during a full moon night 
and also some long exposures when there was no moon and you can see all the stars

Paros mostly thrives from farming olives and other vegitation
so our house is situated in a farm area and light is very scarce at night so you can
see the gazillion stars in the sky.

Greece being relatively cloudless during summer gives you the most spectacular view of the night sky which is just breathtaking.
check out the pictures.
there is one picture where a plane passed by and it created a line in the sky. 
i find it funny.
thats all. 

cheers from windy, sunny and starry Greece X
