Creating each pot is a unique moment. The ability that clay gives you from a piece of amorphous matter to create objects that will make everyday life more beautiful give it invaluable value. The hours I go to the atelier are for me a source of energy and relaxation, and that’s what I’m looking for those who visit my atelier. The workshop is located 16 kilometres from Heraklion ( acces only with car ), in a unique location in the nature, with a spectacular view of Cretan mountains. The area around offers many opportunities for walking and visiting the nearby villages.

The Samaria Gorge trail is a unique hike in the pure Cretan nature. It is a long rocky path that passes through stunning rock formations and crosses the river before exiting to the sea. This is the longest gorge of Greece (16Km / 10 miles) and one of the most beautiful gorges in Crete. That's why is a National Park of Greece since 1962, a protected area and a World's Biosphere Reserve.
