this is what my life in greece consists of: unbelievably clear blue water and shockingly hot beaches. on the ferry ride back from the samaria gorge to hora skfaion, i could not help but muse what a contrast this life is to the barely remembered one i used to live back in san francisco. i’ve only been here like 13 days, not even 2 weeks and i’ve already forgotten what life used to be like.
what working is like. what commuting is like. what cool weather feels like. what my friends look like.
this has become all i know, this water, this air, this sky, and these buildings perched on the edges of hills looking out over the aegean sea.
all i am is a scorched piece of flesh that lies on even hotter sands under a blazing sky and beside a sea of such indescribeable color, all i can do is call it blue. which is hardly justice enough.
ok that’s all very nice. this is what i look like though and do not you forget it.
