Our Wedding

We met on the dancefloor in a sweaty London pub in 2018 and we never looked back :-) Γνωριστήκαμε το 2018 χορεύοντας σε μία πάμπ του Λονδίνου. Και δεν το μετανιώσαμε :-)

Volos is famous for its ‘tsipouro’, a strong drink like grappa. A tsipouradiko is a restaurant where you can enjoy this drink and delicious meze, usually seafood and vegetarian.

They make their own special sweets (‘pasta fournou’, serrano, etc.), and coffee ice cream (‘mocha’ and ‘supermocha’).
