Sculpt an animal from the ancient myths
In ancient Greek history, there was a deep bond between humans and animals. They became symbols, children's toys and played central roles in fairy tales. In mythology, human souls were trapped inside animals under the curse of the gods. Many ancient Greek artists used copper, marble, clay and gold to illustrate these minimal and, at the same time, perfect animal forms. As one of the admirers of this type of art, I would like to invite you on a journey to this magical world through the art of clay sculpture.
The workshop will start with a brief reference to the animals and their symbolism in ancient Greece. Then, I will show you the way to create animal forms. You can eventually choose and make your own animal creature and take it back home. You can receive the creations after the end of the experience. The clay animal needs to dry 12-24hours. You are provided with a package (box) that includes the sculpture on a base plus a kit to complete it. So on the shelf of souvenirs (memories) from the country you visited you will have a complete sculpture of your own hands. Or post it to your home address (with an additional cost).
The 2hours, workshop take place under the sacred rock of the Acropolis. Also two wonderful cats live together in the workshop.
For any further clarification or availability please do not hesitate to contact me.

Create silver jewelry
Think of your own idea and we will create it together, we can make either a ring, necklace, bracelet, pair of earrings or a small piece of art.
Your idea/design should have the size of about 3x3cm or 1,180x 1,180 inch , weighting approx. 4.5 gram. If you wish to have a heavier piece I can advice you and negotiate it at the workshop (an extra gram equals to 1euro). Except of silver we can also use bronze and cooper, as these metals add colour to some particular ideas.
Try to keep your idea simple and in 2 dimensions, so we can accomplish it in about 3 hours. If you are not so sure about what to create, you can choose any of my designs, or I can advice you. At first we will make a sketch and after we will transfer the design on the metal and cut it out with the saw. Then we will smoothen up the metal's surface with emery paper and at last we will polish it to shine it up. The piece is yours and you can call it "My Athenian keepsake" or "My unforgettable time in Athens".
Making your own keepsake will give you the chance to learn in real the technical steps of it's creation.
Athens walk and wine tasting
First, as Athenians do, we will meet in Monastiraki Square in the city center. We'll grab a coffee and do a "volta" -- a leisurely walk through the city to give you a taste of what it's like to be a local!
The walk will take about 1,5 hours. During it, I'll share with you my love for Athens -- the hidden paths, beautiful backstreets and hills, its living history, and some personal stories as well. I'll give you a glimpse of the modern Athenian lifestyle, where we hang out, where we eat, and most importantly where we cut loose.
We'll end the "volta" at one of the best wine bars in Athens. There, we'll spend 1,5 hours more, and during that time we will do a brief introduction to Greek wine culture, as well as a short master class about wine tasting and food pairing. We'll taste four indigenous grape varieties, combined with a salad, cold cuts, and an assortment of Greek cheeses.
This experience will give you a personal view of the city and its citizens and will introduce you to the art and science of tasting wine.

Day trip to Cape Sounio/Poseidon temple
Enjoy a 60km+ ride with a local along the Athens seaside Riviera, all the way from city
center to the Temple of Poseidon at Cape Sounio. On our leisurely coastal drive we'll
stop often for photo opportunities and spectacular views of the Saronic gulf and the small islands offshore.
During this ride we'll get to check out the view of the impressive lagoon of the thermal lake Vouliagmeni
Then we'll stop at a beach with crystal clear waters, where you can take a quick swim, relax
on the beach, and enjoy the peaceful, istagramable Mediterranean.
Finally, we'll drive to Cape Sounio, which is guarded by the Temple of Poseidon, where
you can see the Aegean Sea stretch on for kilometers around you. Explore the
archaeological site at your own pace and allow the stunning views to clear your mind.
This experience is ideal for anyone looking to escape the hustle of the big city or
wanting to cool down at the beach. Whether you enjoy history and Greek mythology or
you're just looking for the perfect beach spot, this is the trip for you!
P.S. I absolutely love taking pictures, so please ask me!
