Trip to the Motherland


My trip to Greece was AMAZING. 
I spent a lot of time on the island of Rhodes, where my grandparents are from. 
For the first time, I was able experience the places that I visited only in my mind, when my yiayia (grandmother) used to tell me stories of her home country.
As I explored her village, I took in my surroundings and felt her presence all around me. 
It was truly remarkable.

I am working on a short documentary on one of the famous monasteries I visited. Here's a preview:
