"This is a noble tree, beautiful and desperate. It grows soaked in ancient pain that deforms it, distorts it with impressive curves. To see a restless and crazy gallery of sculptures, it is enough to go to an olive grove."
⠀
Mauro Corona "Voices of the Forest"
⠀

⠀
✅Olive wood is moisture-resistant, does not absorb odors and is easily polished with a drop of olive oil. Bottle coasters, cutting boards or pendants - each item handmade from olive wood is unique.
⠀
✅There is another part of the olive tree, less popular, but which gives an even greater effect on health: the olive leaf. It contains an abundance of a compound that is considered very effective in medicine.
⠀
✅What about olive pomace? For many years, pomace was considered waste. Surprisingly, it turned out that olive pomace is an excellent generator of electricity. Olive pomace does not just burn; it burns well. In addition, olive pomace also has a greater thermal power than diesel. Olive pomace can also be the energy of the future. Now they make briquettes from pomace and sell it as fuel for fireplaces and stoves.
⠀
✅Olives (by the way, both black and green are olives. Olives are the fruits of the same tree, but of different degrees of ripeness. Olives are unripe green, olives are ripe black)
⠀
✅ And of course, oil!
⠀
The very first question is how to choose.
I will not write what has been written 500 times on the Internet. I will say that in Crete, all the oil is gorgeous!
⠀
The best in the world, no doubt!

⠀
Who has tried Cretan oil?
⠀
A large Cretan family uses up to 250 liters of olive oil per year!

And how do you use olive oil? Just for salads? Or for everything?

protect and enjoy the island of Crete!⠀
There are 2 palm beaches on Crete.
⠀
🌴 VAI is located in the very east of Crete. I'm not a fan of this place, but if you are on holiday relatively close, then combine the day with a visit to the Toplou Monastery. Walk from VAI along the path and you will find yourself on the beautiful beach of Psili Ammos.
⠀
🌴🌴🌴
⠀
Today, I will tell you in detail about the palm beach PREVELI
⠀
I would not advise going for just one thing on any route. There is always a lot of interesting things along the way. And there is always a delicious tavern of Cretan cuisine.
⠀
I don't like Preveli as a place to swim either
⠀
But! I like to walk along the river and the palm forest. Very beautiful photos from above and in the forest itself. A completely different feeling of the island.
⠀
How can I visit PREVELI?
⠀
🌴From the eastern part of Crete there is a group excursion RETHYMNO-PREVELI (50th)
⠀
🌴From Rethymno there are group excursions and also a city bus that goes to the Preveli monastery. You go down 400 steps.
⠀
🌴By car, along the route - the south of Crete. I make a beautiful route and you can choose how best to see the beach
⠀
🌴On an individual excursion we can visit what we want and when we want 😉🥰
⠀⠀
🌴You can sail by boat from Damnoni and Plakias. Convenient and plus a walk along the sea. The cost is 9 euros one way.
You can see the schedule on the website: lbferries.gr
⠀
🌴If you choose Preveli beach Parking on the map, then you leave your car in the parking lot and go down 400 steps.
⠀
🌴Or you can choose Drymiskiano Beach and you will need to walk about 10 minutes to the beach and only 100 steps. True, the road to this beach is a small serpentine and is not for those who do not feel confident on narrow roads.
⠀It is on this beach that I would swim after the walk.
⠀

The Beginning Phases of the House Build

Can you believe it?! We have a plot and we start our dream holiday house-cretan Sun construction with the Cretan construction company CRETA DOM !!!! This didn’t happen overnight… I’ve just been bad about blogging all that has been happening at the land! You see, we’ve been SNAPPING the visits to the home site and updates in my blog .................. SO much going on!!!

Embarking on the construction of your holiday house is an exciting venture that promises a space for relaxation and cherished memories. Begin by selecting a location that aligns with your vision, whether it's a serene beachfront, a secluded forest, or a picturesque countryside. Engage with architects and builders early on to design a space that reflects your style and meets your needs, ensuring it complements the natural surroundings. Consider sustainable building practices, like using eco-friendly materials and incorporating efficient energy solutions, to minimize your environmental impact. As construction progresses, stay actively involved in the process, making timely decisions on interiors and finishes to create a harmonious and inviting atmosphere. With careful planning and collaboration, your holiday house will soon become the perfect escape for you and your loved ones.

GREEK WINES ARE EXCELLENT! ⠀ A few years ago in

GREEK WINES ARE EXCELLENT!
⠀
A few years ago in Greece, Yiannis Karakasis MW (Master of Wine) - one of about 400 masters of wine in the world, a title that is considered the highest in the wine industry, established the award "" 50 Best Greek Wines ". The main idea was to make Greek wine more recognizable at the international level. And they succeeded❗️
⠀
This year Crete broke records and 9 wines were included in the list❣🍷
⠀
🥂Imagine, 600 wines from 200 wineries in Greece and Cyprus participated. And 9 places were taken by Cretan wines.
⠀
I really love to conduct gastro tours in Crete, visit wineries and talk about Cretan wines.
⠀
And I am sure that gastro tours will become more and more popular in Crete and this is the best way to get acquainted with country❗️
⠀
➡️Crete has 11 unique local grape varieties, so producers can make wines from one variety or create interesting blends with other European varieties that are also grown on the island.
⠀
➡️I would especially like to note the Cretan variety, which stands out for its unique aroma and rich apricot flavor, this is the Vidiano variety - the white "diva" of Crete.
⠀
1. @alexakiswines Vidiano Orange 2020

More common question from the guests of the island

More common question from the guests of the island...
What do the locals do in winter?
Crete's GDP is 48% tourism.
But!
⠀
Agriculture and livestock farming are in first place.
Believe it or not, a huge part of the island's population lives and doesn't know about tourism. For them, it's more of a curiosity than a common occurrence.
Imagine, Crete has half of the greenhouses in all of Greece.
⠀Crete supplies vegetables and fruits to other islands of Greece, the mainland, Germany, France and other countries.
⠀
65% of the island's land is olive trees🌿
Do you know how many olives there are in Crete? 35 million
What else?
⠀Citrus fruits! 🍊🍊🍊
⠀
Oranges, lemons, tangerines and avocado ( non citrus :)
They harvest twice a year. In December and in April.
It turns out that even those who work in tourism, at the end of the season, are engaged in olive harvesting.
⠀
Almost every Cretan family has their own plots with olive or citrus trees. And you can combine both tourism and agriculture.
⠀I often give an example on excursions that when a bartender in a hotel tells you about his salary of 900€ and about earning only 5 months, then ask him what is the main source of income in their family.
⠀And if you continue the conversation with him, it turns out that a bartender is a job to have insurance and a pension, not to hang around in the summer and have money to walk beautiful tourists😂.
⠀
And a family business is olives or citrus plantations😉
⠀✔️And also animal farm. In the summer, most cheese dairies are closed, since the sheep are pregnant and there is no milk. And there, work begins in the fall.
⠀
What else do those who work in tourism for half a year do?
⠀
✔️Many go home. And these are not only foreigners. Thousands come for the season from other regions of Greece (the economic situation in Crete is one of the best in the country).
⠀
✔️Many are trying to regain their strength and prepare for the next season (like me, for example).
⠀Seasonal work is not as easy as it seems. We work for all 12 months, almost without days off.
⠀
Well, and a well-deserved vacation.
⠀
I could not work 11 months and go on vacation once a year.
⠀
And you? Could you work seasonally?

5 undeniable reasons why Crete is one of the best

5 undeniable reasons why Crete is one of the best islands for a holiday in Greece ❤️
⠀
Fans of Crete, I need your feedback in the comments ❗️
⠀
I’ve wanted to write this post for a long time.
⠀
Firstly, I think that Crete’s reputation has been seriously damaged by mass tourism and terribly boring and monotonous excursions from dumb operators.
⠀
Do you know how many times I saved the reputation of my favorite island after an unsuccessful first visit?
⠀
I’m glad that my subscribers give Crete another chance and come to me!
⠀
See “my” island ❤️
⠀
Secondly, Crete is underestimated precisely because of its accessibility. Flying to Crete is not so exotic and not so cool. This is also a mistake.
⠀
Crete is a very cool island❗️❗️❗️

Food? In Crete it is cheaper and most importantly TASTIER!
⠀
Crete grows all its vegetables and fruits, its own delicious meat and dairy products.
⠀
And also in Crete, in any tavern they always treat you to delicious food, and not often on other islands. And we are used to it 😉
⠀
Small islands have their own charm, but Crete has hundreds of islands in one.
⠀
💯That’s the secret.
⠀
Everything that is on other islands is on
Crete❣
⠀
If you enjoyed the beaches, you can visit one of the atmospheric towns of Crete. Walk along the narrow streets of Hani or Rethymno.
⠀
If you want an active holiday, you can go to the gorges, go surfing, mountain biking...

Thailand is better than Crete for investment Inve

Thailand is better than Crete for investment

Investors are increasingly choosing Thailand over Crete. Why?

1 More income: In Thailand, rental yields are up to 14% per annum. Crete, Greece does not provide such figures due to seasonal tourism.

2 Tourists all year round: There is no “low season” in Thailand. The flow of vacationers does not stop.

3 Cheaper entry: Minimum investment OT $70,000. In Crete, Greece, prices are higher and taxes are higher.

4 Easier to arrange: Buying real estate in Thailand takes a minimum of time.

Thailand is a stable income, lower costs and

no seasonal risks.

BUT!!! It is very beneficial and an attractive proposition for retirees in Greece; you just ay flat 7% tax from your global income.

How do I know if I’m eligibility for the Greek 7% Tax on foreign income retirement scheme?
You need to meet specific criteria for this tax regime including:

Not having been a tax resident in Greece for five out of the previous six years before the year you will move your tax residency to Greece.
Transfering your tax residency to Greece from a country that Greece has a tax cooperating agreement with.

Greece has other tax schemes which also apply and are advantageous including:

0% on capital gains tax. This helps ensure the profits on any sales are not subject to taxation. This is important particularly for shares in businesses and also shares on the stock market.
A low dividend tax rate of 5%. This is useful for investing your savings as this is a particularly low rate to pay on dividends.

We will never arrive to Crete again!
⠀
I heard this phrase most often from guests on a return flight from Crete, after spending a few hours at the airport in Crete.
⠀
On arrival, not really thrilled about our airport either, but the anticipation of vacation smoothes the situation a little.
⠀
We actually have a very old horrible airport in 1937.
But very soon the situation will change in the root. We are under construction of a new airport.
Эксплуатация нового аэропорта начнется в 2027 году.
⠀
This will be the second largest and most modern airport in the country. There will be 19 boarding exits at the airport. The airport will have an area of 94,000 sq.m. м.
⠀National highway is being expanded all over the island.
⠀
For the note of you!

By the way, the airport of which country or city did you remember and find it very comfortable?

How are your impressions of the departure and arrival? Are you paying attention to the airport?
⠀I like Dubai airport for the super cleanest and very easy to di all the documentation! As well as Kuala Lumpur airport!!#creteisland #propertiesincrete #ferienhausekretasonnenshine #крит #holidayincrete🇬🇷 #греция🇬🇷 #недвижимостьвгреции #travelexploreinvest

If you are not in Crete for the first time... ⠀

If you are not in Crete for the first time...
⠀
There are many amazing places in Crete, where there are no group tours and which can surprise you even if you have been here a few times.
⠀
Loutro Bay, Marmara Beach are some of those places where you will definitely like.
⠀
For those who arrived for the first time, I think it’s better to start with other sights.
⠀
Although, if you don’t like to come back to the same place and like to collect “cream” at once, then Lutro is also for you.
⠀
But!
⠀
If you start exploring Crete, chances are you’ll fall in love so much that you’ll have to come back:)
⠀
We even have a saying “It’s dangerous to fly to Crete and fall in love, you will have to return every year”
⠀
Lutro and the southern beaches are accessible only by the sea. You can get to the village of Hora Sfakion and then choose how you spend your time.
⠀
1. You can rent a taxi boat for the whole day
⠀
2. You can sail on a taxi boat as scheduled.
⠀
3.there is scheduled ferry service
⠀
4.You can stay overnight
⠀
5. You can rent an accommodation in Hora Sfakion and spend a couple of days in the south.
⠀
⠀
Our guests book a guided tour of southern Crete and this tour includes a boat visit to the two beaches Lutro and Marmara.
⠀
Novelty of this season - fishing with swimming. The captain prepares ear on the boat and Cretan snacks, you are sailing in the turquoise bays of the Libyan Sea. 100% on the go!
⠀
Any questions and details can be found out by writing me in direct.
⠀
We know Crete better than the Cretans themselves:)

New project in Greece, Crete! 2020🏡

I bought a house in one of wonderful islands in Greece in Crete from 1910😱 The house is in complete disrepair, the area is 115m², 2 floor,3 BR,2 Bathrooms, balcony,terrace, veranda, garden and car park.

After renovation (€35.000) the building will be valued at about €260.000💰💥

I sold it in 2024 for exactly this price! Profit is guaranteed 🏠🤑💰

But here’s the question - how much will the renovation cost? And how much do you think I’ll earn on this project after its completion? 🤔💸

Write in the comments PROFIT to go to a closed channel where I tell all the inside details of my and my clients’ investment projects with numbers, successful and unsuccessful decisions.

Hey guys!

Here’s a quick and easy DIY on how to create your very own Lemon Sugar Hand Scrub. This scrub is an amazing way to keep your hands soft and moisturized. The best part? It only takes 3 ingredients! You might even have them already in your house :)

The scrub does not need to be refrigerated and should be stored in a cool, dry place. It will last for a very long time... however after a while, the sugar may settle and it will need to be stirred.
