Have you ever seen a “jellyfish” with a sail? 🌊💙

These beautiful little creatures are called Velella velella, or “by-the-wind sailors”. They may look like tiny jellyfish, but they are actually hydrozoans — close relatives of jellyfish, but not true jellyfish.

Their most fascinating feature is the tiny transparent sail on their body, which allows them to drift across the surface of the open ocean, carried by wind and currents. They feed mainly on plankton and tiny marine organisms.

They are considered harmless to humans. They do have tiny stinging cells, but these are used to catch their microscopic prey and are generally not strong enough to harm human skin. Still, it is best to admire them without touching them.

When the wind and currents push them towards the coast, hundreds or even thousands can suddenly appear along beaches. That is probably what happened here on Andros, where we unexpectedly found several of these little “sailors” floating in the water.

Nature has some truly extraordinary designs. 💙🌊

A little piece of summer, where the sea is crystal clear, the days move slowly, and there is nothing to do but breathe, rest and simply be.
Not the most famous place, not the most crowded one — just a beautiful corner of Greece where summer still feels like summer.
I’ll leave its name unspoken, so it can stay this way a little longer. 🤍🌊

Ένα μικρό κομμάτι καλοκαιριού, εκεί όπου η θάλασσα είναι κρυστάλλινη, οι μέρες κυλούν αργά και δεν χρειάζεται να κάνεις τίποτα άλλο παρά να αναπνέεις, να ξεκουράζεσαι και απλώς να υπάρχεις.
Όχι το πιο διάσημο, ούτε το πιο πολυσύχναστο μέρος — μόνο μια όμορφη γωνιά της Ελλάδας, όπου το καλοκαίρι μοιάζει ακόμη πραγματικά με καλοκαίρι.
Θα αφήσω το όνομά του ανείπωτο, για να μπορέσει να μείνει έτσι λίγο ακόμη. 🤍🌊

ℹ️ Andros' Venitian Lower Castle (Kato Kastro) guarding Chora's port, bombed in 1943 during WWII.

P.S. built by Maurizio Dandolo in 1207, Andros was part of the Republic of Venice-controlled Duchy of Naxos until 1566.

P.S.2 Castrum fecit potentiam - the castle has shown strength.

ℹ️ At Stratis Vineyards, Andros.

When last year we visited Eleni and Vasilis at their vineyards, what impressed me is how archaic and modern at the same time their farming method was.

P.S. of course, I think that here we have to separate two approaches: rational farming and semi-spontaneous farming, if we can call them so.
With rationality, we build our "wine farm" as a kind of predictable activity, where yields are connected to density and to type of training, leading to specific quality standards and consequent trade efficiency
With semi-spontaneous, an activity where the outcome is less predictable and production is more in the direction of autarchy and self-sustainement.

P.S.2 the first picture clearly shows how Vasilis decides to hace as less influence as possible on its vineyards.
Here I need the help of my Greek friends, because I don't remember if he told me this was Mavro Potamisi or Rozaki and if this was a case of spontaneous abortion.

P.S.3 time has passed and I took no notes. I felt relaxed, it was a perfect day in perfect company and I still think about this visit, for I have learnt a lot.

P.S.4 the field was a blend of varieties and the subsequent wines were often what we today elegantly call "field blend", but the actual correct definition could be
"AD USUM DOMI".
