About Me

My photo
Susan Watkin
Greece - Kalo Taxidi. I have been visiting Greece since 1981. I started writing a blog about my visit to Greece in February / March 2011, and have continued the blog on subsequent visits to Greece and from England. I have been writing about Greece for years. In July 2011 I published my book "Kalo Taxidi! Notes from Greece and the Greek Islands", which is available from Amazon.
